Is it just me or was there absolutely no foreshadowing of the supposed food crisis. I don't remember that from any of the previous episodes. In the past, when they needed supplies they would do a run. And obviously supplies are still available in the general area as witnessed by the truck that went in the lake.

It seems that the food shortage was just introduced as a catalyst for the Negan conflict. In which case, it seems like the writers are getting sloppy in their old age.

"Hijo de puta." Google Translate says son of a bitch or mothereffer.

Why, thank you, Christian Serratos. I didn't have any colorful language in my Spanish vocabulary yet.

Still 5 episodes to go according to IMDB but I'm calling the next death as Abraham's.

They showed him finding peace last night when he was being choked which is because he saw his wife. Remember in the RV the fella talking about how when he thought Abraham was going too kill him he saw his wife and broke down? That's what happened, Abraham thought he would die and saw his wife who apologized and told him to come home. The necklace being left on the ground is symbolic that neither Rosita or Sasha is right for him and he has to be with his wife.

I speculate next couple of episodes they head towards Negan's camp and either get intercepted or captured... At some point Abraham will sacrifice himself so they can escape. This'll lead to the finale (no doubt a 2 parter) where Negan gets to Alexandria and Maggie at least gets killed off, possibly Glenn as well (though the more I think about it, the more I expect they will keep him alive and play off that next season)

My reasoning is that Maggie went from a zero to hero- she had next to no screen time and all of a sudden Rick is grooming her for leadership. Then they are talking pregnancy in the RV, she's happy Glenn is alive, the doctor wants to help them, all is well etc... everyone should know by now this is Walking Dead foreshadowing and she's as good as dead.

Edited to add: I did not read the comics... so no spoiler tags as this is speculation on my part.

Dang, maybe...with Abraham blowing up & Carol talking about Maggie...

This show does a good job of keeping you guessing!

I think "why are dingleberries brown? Because that's the way shit is!" Is my new favorite saying.

Ok guess i was wrong. I expected the discussing, hemming and hawing, planning, etc to go on for a few episodes

Also, only person with a silencer... doesn't use it.

Bla bla bla, they're not really that quiet in real life.

Mythbusters did a segment on them. I know they didn't put it as busted, but they definitely aren't like they are in movies.

As for TWD, I'm wondering if we're not going to see Negen until the end of this season?

Probably when he dramatically kills [insert favorite character here]

I wonder what Morgan was working on...maybe a spear-knife for his Ninja Turtles stick? I'm curious if he's going to save everyone at the end, then leave.

Jail cell? It sort of looked like bars

Negan is not a girl. They cast a man for the role.
I think Morgan is building a cage like his mentor had.
