The Walking Dead 6.7 "Heads Up" (spoiler alert)

[NewJeffCT]

Last edited Sun Nov 22, 2015, 04:21 PM - Edit history (1)

Alexandria is finally able to start pulling itself back together; and there's peace between the group and the Alexandrians, but no one knows how long it will last.

vague enough for anybody?

I do hear we get resolution to the Glenn cliffhanger tonight.

[NewJeffCT]

1. Some articles from this past week

2. I am in desperate need of a WD fix.

Sunday couldn't have come fast enough this week.

[NewJeffCT]

3. well

we've been waiting 4 weeks for closure on Glenn, too.

[Baitball Blogger]

4. That too.

[Goblinmonger]

5. I vaguely remember someone saying the resolution came in episode 8

but I can't recall where I heard that.

Maybe we get the resolution right at the end of this episode and 8 is the one all about him.

Either way, this should be good as it seems that the timelines are going to converge.

[NewJeffCT]

7. Yes

the timeline flipping was interesting at first, but has gotten a bit frustrating the last few weeks.

I'm pretty sure we'll get some closure on Glenn tonight.

[Solly Mack]

6. I want Judith to grow up and be a mixture of Rick & Michonne & Daryl.

The best of all three, to include fighting skills.

I want her to learn some skills from Carol - just not how to treat a cold.

(and to never - ever - look at the flowers with her)

[NewJeffCT]

8. I saw a meme on Twitter

of Judith at 6 years old with a pistol held out straight like a pro and shooting a walker in the head.

[Solly Mack]

9. I can see that happening.

A child born into the ZA would have no other frame of reference except for what people told her of the "old days".

Maybe they wouldn't be scared all the time - with life being what it is, it's just life.

[NewJeffCT]

12. Here are a few of them

[Solly Mack]

16. Well...there you go. Dumpster diving with a whole new meaning.

Just saw the Glenn scene.

Nice pics.

Enid? Hmmm....the plot thickens.

[stevil]

10. Is Steven Yeun the guest on Talking dead tonight?

We heard the bit that Glenn will make another appearance in some form or fashion. Maggie is pregnant. I think there will be closure tonight to end the speculation.

[NewJeffCT]

11. No idea

it's not on until 11pm, so I'll be asleep. I'm usually fading by the end of Talking Dead at 10pm

[stevil]

13. West Coast time here.

I normally wait until the PST feed to watch but I have access to satellite TV tonight so I'm watching the EST feed. Need to get some rest after a crazy weekend. None of us know of course, I should have asked if anyone else has that feeling.

[stevil]

21. Glad to be wrong

[Shankapotomus]

42. Yes (eom)

[NewJeffCT]

14. flash back to Glenn

at the dumpster - he's clearly under Nicholas.

looks like he made it under and killed a few walkers

[NewJeffCT]

18. And, Enid tosses him a water bottle

that place seems to be in pretty good shape 2 years into the apocalypse

[bettyellen]

15. late because I didn't want to see any spoilers! YAY GLEN!!!

[Iris]

17. Wow We didn't have to wait long!

And here's Enid, too?

[NewJeffCT]

22. she hinted on Talking Dead

that if we saw her again, we'd be happy.

[bettyellen]

19. Is next week mid-season finale?

[Solly Mack]

20. So, what's Enid up to you reckon?

I guess Glenn gets to meet Negan.

Fuck Enid. She doesn't know what happened, so she should stop scaring Glenn.

[NewJeffCT]

23. Not sure what's going on with her

maybe she just likes to be on her own?

[Solly Mack]

25. Nah. I think there's more to her than that.

[Baitball Blogger]

29. I suspect she doesn't know if Glenn was bitten, and doesn't want to

stick around to find out.

[NewJeffCT]

31. good point

she wouldn't know

[Laffy Kat]

24. I could be totally off base here,

But I'm wondering if Enid's going all Wolf Pack on us?

[Solly Mack]

27. I don't think so, but maybe.

I do think she knows about another community of people though.

[Joe Shlabotnik]

26. With Enid they've managed to make a character

more frustrating than season 2 Carl and Lori combined.

[Solly Mack]

28. LOL! No kidding!

[NewJeffCT]

30. I think it's something in the Alexandria water

Ron is pretty annoying, too.

[NewJeffCT]

32. #GlennisAlive is trending on Twitter

and, Glenn gets the note. Still a noble guy.

[Solly Mack]

33. Well, dang. I hope he makes it back. I've been ripped apart enough already.

[NewJeffCT]

34. It would really suck

if the showrunners did that to us.

[Solly Mack]

36. It would.

I still expect him to die this season though.

[Solly Mack]

35. Ron is so going to try and shoot Rick. End up hitting Glenn just as he makes it back.

[NewJeffCT]

37. he's definitely carrying

Chekhov's Gun around with him.

[Solly Mack]

38. Heh

[NewJeffCT]

49. and now

he's getting bullets for the gun

[Solly Mack]

51. Yep. He's going to kill Glenn trying to kill Rick.

Or not. But well...

[Baitball Blogger]

63. Did you see how Carl was looking at him?

I suspect that he knows his intentions.

[NewJeffCT]

66. not hard to reason that one

I mean, Rick killed his Dad, and now Carl stole his girlfriend - he certainly has reason to hate the Grimes family.

[bettyellen]

50. I wish he'd just shoot Morgan because nothing good is coming out of either of those two....

[Solly Mack]

53. I'm hoping Morgan wakes up but I think he dies much like in the comic.

[Solly Mack]

39. Morgan is wrong.

Just plain wrong.

[Baitball Blogger]

67. But, he did make a good point.

There have been major exceptions made in not killing people and it turned out right. But, Morgan is a danger because he has completely lost his perspective.

Rick on the other hand, is going in the opposite direction. He even got flipped off by Tara because she tried to save someone. There's a lesson here somewhere.

[Solly Mack]

70. Yeah. You're right. Too far in either direction is bad.

[Solly Mack]

40. Special message? Oh, he's so dead before the show ends.

[NewJeffCT]

41. You mean the show tonight?

or, the show in general?

[Solly Mack]

43. I was thinking tonight. But I was half-joking.

Special guest with a special message? Just screams death.

[bettyellen]

52. HUSH SOLLY! STOP SAYING GLENN WILL DIE!!!

I CAN:T HANDLE IT!!!

[Solly Mack]

60. I'm sorry. Glenn and Maggie have 12 children and everyone lives to 120.

Repopulating the world with little Glenns and little Maggies.

Better?

[Solly Mack]

44. OK. It's fine with me if Enid dies a slow death now.

Unless she drops the gun and changes her tune in the next scene.

You know, she might decide to be nice again.

[NewJeffCT]

45. Enid draws on Glenn

I have a feeling it won't end well for her.

[Solly Mack]

46. Dear Rick - Allow people to be nice to you. Allow them to be hepful.

Don't be that guy, Rick. Don't do it.

[NewJeffCT]

47. he hasn't had much chance

back at the prison, he was for a bit, but not long.

[Solly Mack]

48. I know. I just want him to be a good leader.

I am so worried about Glenn again. Dammit! I've been sucked back in again!

Ron is going to shoot at Rick and kill Glenn.

Carl will shoot Ron.

Jessie will get bit by a walker.

Or not. lol

[NewJeffCT]

54. Yes

Glenn is back at the walls of Alexandria now

[Solly Mack]

55. Hey...maybe Enid takes the bullet that would have hit Glenn...or...

Who knows?

[bettyellen]

56. no, hey have happy green balloons and it will end happy!

[Solly Mack]

58. lol!

[bettyellen]

62. You are making me stick my fingers in my ears. Unfortunately, I can still read your posts when....

I do that. ;-D

[Solly Mack]

65. I will stop saying bad things about Glenn's future.

[Solly Mack]

57. Damn! Spencer! WTF!!!

[Liberal Veteran]

89. Well, to be fair, the only DVD they saved in Alexandria was Batman Begins.

They were bound to get some ideas.

[Solly Mack]

90. lololol!

[bettyellen]

59. I'm not even sure who Spencer is? What the hell? These Alexandrians should die.

PITAes, all of em.

[Solly Mack]

61. Deanna's surviving son.

[NewJeffCT]

64. Spencer's is Deanna's other son

He did shoot the wolf truck driver a few episodes back - so, he isn't a total loss.

[bettyellen]

97. Tks- they are all so bland, I forget who is who..... A link for you, I think you all will really enjoy...

It's the British Zombie Apocalypse happening to the producers of Big Brother London. Very gory, ironic, fast paced and dark fun. Take a peek!

[Solly Mack]

68. Morgan and his Wolf mox Walker is going to get Denise killed.

Don't take Judith over there!

[Baitball Blogger]

69. Ohmigod! Morgan is going to put the doc-in-training in danger.

[NewJeffCT]

71. Yes

it certainly looks like that.

[Solly Mack]

72. Answer Carol or she will kill you.

[Solly Mack]

73. Is the POS going to shoot Carl? (in the eye)

[NewJeffCT]

74. episode is ending

and it looks like all the shit is going to hit the fan

cliffhanger - Ron to draw on Carl, that building to crash into the wall, Wolf gets loose and kills Denise...

[Baitball Blogger]

76. How did they forget to fortify that building?

[NewJeffCT]

78. that was outside the walls

and was burned in the Wolf attack, so maybe they didn't get a chance before the herd arrived?

[Solly Mack]

75. Balloons! Maggie knows!

But...I made a promise. So...

[Baitball Blogger]

77. I forgot that reference.

What was the significance of the balloons?

[Solly Mack]

80. He said he'd give a signal somehow.

Before he left.

[Solly Mack]

79. SNAFU. FUBAR. BOHICA.

Clusterfuck trifecta.

Carl gets shot.
Jessie gets devoured.
Morgan gets bitten.
Denise gets bitten. (but saves Carl)
Ron gets devoured.

Just a guess. Of course.


My husband kept saying - "They're bracing the wrong part"

[Baitball Blogger]

82. I hope they have a Plan B.

Wouldn't it be stupid if there is no Plan B? Run to the church, run to the second floor of the stadium. Anything but, run like chickens with your head cut off, would be a good idea.

[Solly Mack]

83. Yeah, but they don't.

The prison group will know how to react...not so much the others.

[Joe Shlabotnik]

84. I think Glen will save them,

and Enid will live to tell them how he did it.

[Solly Mack]

85. That is an awesome, yet sad, thought.

[Baitball Blogger]

106. I think I cracked the code.

There will be deaths, but Maggie is standing next to Rick so she can direct the main characters to the drainage tunnel that runs under the compound. There they will feel like they are trapped forever, when all of a sudden Daryl and Co. come to save them with their fire mortars. Glen will tell them that it's okay to burn the town to the ground because they went under ground.

But, now we have Alexandria, the safe haven, no longer.

[Joe Shlabotnik]

108. good theory,

I'd count Deanna with her revised plans for Alexandria among the dead, if it goes down like you suggest.

[NewJeffCT]

109. True

making plans for the future is usually not a good sign - look at Reg and Noah last season.

[stevil]

81. Holy shit

That was brilliant.

[Solly Mack]

86. Will Sasha, Daryl, and Abraham make it back in time or will they answer the call for help first?

[Joe Shlabotnik]

91. lol, I forgot about them!

Well they do have a fuel truck that could come in handy.

[Solly Mack]

93. Maybe they'll make it back in time to help.

[Solly Mack]

87. Glenn! I'll keep my promise and say no more.

[bettyellen]

94. Thank you. I had a guest make me miss the last 2 minutes. Not good.

[Solly Mack]

95. Glenn was alive and well at the end and I don't know anything different.

Guest are like that. No respect for the dead fix.

[bettyellen]

96. Well good, now I don't have to stay up for the repeat! Have you seen that British Zombie show-

Dead Set? I think you would love it. It's gruesome and dark but also very funny. It's a London ZA happening to the people who produce the Big Brother TV show, so it's like the opposite of WD. The whole series is on Youtube, and it's pretty short. That writer is really a genius. He's like a modern Rod Serling mixed in with Jon Carpenter. Fun stuff, Sol!

It's got Spanish subtitles, but it's a free BBC mini series, so.....

[Solly Mack]

99. I'll check it out! Thanks!

I have room for more dead in my life.

[bettyellen]

101. You MUST give it a chance. It starts too slow, but....

once it gets going, it is crazy good. Make it to Episode 2 and you'll not be able to stop watching.

[Solly Mack]

102. I will. I'm a zombie fan since Romero's NotLD. I also watch iZombie.

It's not great but I got the entire first series on DVD as a gift. So...

[Liberal Veteran]

88. Carol bitching at Morgan about people being burned alive made me laugh.

I thought she was going to say "Miss Manners says you have to kill them, then set them on fire or it's else just barbaric."

Remembering Carol burning the evid...um....bodies back in the prison.

[Solly Mack]

92. Starve a walker, kill a cold. Burn them up, save the bold.

I think Carol stitched that on a pillow.

[bettyellen]

98. This will make you laugh! And jump out of your chair!

It;s in English, despite the title:

[Solly Mack]

100. Talking Dead.

I also watched Into the Badlands. AMC is evil. It draws you in and sucks your will away.

[bettyellen]

103. Badlands has too many fight scenes for me.

[Solly Mack]

104. It was extra bloody tonight.

Which doesn't really add anything to me.

[NewJeffCT]

105. I watched the beginning to see the message from Steve Yuen

The red-headed woman really kicked some ass in that early scene - all while in spiked heels.

Glad Steve is appreciative of the fan support he received, though.

[Solly Mack]

107. The widow is a badass.

Sensible shoes for nonsensical times.

[ChisolmTrailDem]

110. He was quite emotional about it. Such a cool guy and what a place to be for him...

...A beloved member of the cast in what must be an awesome job.

[pinboy3niner]

111. What really happened to Glenn...

I heard this mentioned on Talking Dead and looked it up.

[GOLGO 13]

112. I predict a cliffhanger introduction appearance at the end of the finale

Here's how I see it play out:

- The basement Wolfpack degenerate attacks the Dr. while Carol steps back & forces Morgan to kill him. The Dr. is seriously injured.

- Deanna gets served her "walking papers" but goes down guns blazing. Tells Spencer to live with her dying breath.

- Carl gets shot (again) but the Dr. rallies to save him. Austin gets bit, turns & is killed by Rick which is of course seen by Jessie.

- Carol & Morgan get the Dr. back but become frenemies. A reckoning is coming.

- As the herd moves in, Glenn & Enid get in behind them. Maggie sees him!

- Rick/Michonne/Maggie/Tara make a last stand at the Dr's while Carl gets operated on. They fight like the 300 Spartans & they inspire the Alexandrians to rally at the Dr's for 20+ minutes of pure, glorious, hyper-insanity Z-warfare & lots of casualties for the 98.6 crowd. Victory will belong to the living!

- Abraham/Sasha/Daryl make it back to like WTF is this fresh hell?

- Glen is BETRAYED by Enid as Negan walks in & introduces everyone to "Lucille".

See y'all on Monday where I'll be completely proven right.

[NewJeffCT]

113. that would be a great finale

sometimes, I think fans come up with better ideas than the showrunners.
