Episode  19,  Letharia Vulpira

Summary:

If you haven’t already watched the first three seasons its time now.  It’s an amazingly well done show. Go watch Season 1, Season 2, and the first half of Season 3. They are well worth seeing.

Episode 19 kicks off with a surprise twist. The vet has been called to a crazy Japanese man’s house where there is a “sick” wolf. Yuki, the beloved wolf has been poisoned after eating moss. The crazy Japanese guy is waving his gun around, but his men won’t quite do as they are told, leaving him to do it himself. In their defense, the garden is pretty dam creepy, and turns out to be the place where the good demons originally fought the bad demon now in styles. The vet takes a sample of the Letharia Vulpira from the fountain. The vet is going to use the lichen to poison the bad demon inside Styles.

Back at the  high school Isaac gets fried but Kira uses her affinity for electricity to save the day and remove the electrical line before anyone else gets hurt. And that is after she does some bad ass ninja shit over a car.

Isaac is in the hospital, apparently electric shocks stall wolf healing?

Everyone realizes that Styles is on the loose, and Kira tells Scott that the bad demon is a trickster, but can react very badly if it feels its been slighted. Right after Kira tells Scott whatever has Styles is a trickster they hear an emitter and run to the basement, straight to Styles.

The twins are ready to attack Styles but Scott stops them with an alpha roar. Styles seems like he is himself again, but he can’t remember what happened and he has a bag full of stuff like saws, wire, and hospital blueprints. Style’s points out that he marked up the map where the crazy dude put all the steel jaw traps out and likely moved them to where the track team runs. We then get a nice view of Kira sprinting through the woods. Not as cute as Allison, but still up there.

And then we find out who the bad guy demon might be after. It’s mad at Mr. Argent for the part he played in its death years ago.

Just when we think that Scott & team saved everyone from steel jaw traps coach triggers a crossbow bolt that shoots into his gut. Styles has been a very bad boy.

First a crossbow trap, and then a present bomb on a school bus. Even if Style’s get an exorcism, how is he not going to jail for all this?

As the school deal with style’s bomb Lydia and Allison are dealing with Peter. Apparently Peter might be a daddy?

Meanwhile in the school Kira’s mom and dad break several daggers, apparently making more of the good demons.

Outside they discover there isn’t a bomb on a bus, but there just might be one in the police station, exactly where the bad demon had Mr. Argent taken. That was a nice touch.

Back at Peter’s house Lydia refuses to tell Peter anything more about his baby and Lydia gives him a parting shot on the way out.

Scott, Styles, and Kira meanwhile are running from the “good” demons. The ones that Kira’s mom has unleashed. The demons catch up to them outside the clinic and Kira turns into a bad ass ninja again, but not soon enough to keep Scott from getting run through.

Just when Kira is about to pull the blade free Styles knocks Kira out so he can torture Scott, twisting the blade in his guts as he eats the pain that Scott has been trying to keep from the people around him. God damn, Styles does the bad guy thing too well. 

Thankfully Doc Deaton shows up just in time to poison Styles’ demon with the lichen, and then the episode is over. Doh!!! I want more.

Things I loved about this episode…

• Allison – “He doesn’t have any family.” Scott’s mom – “He’s got us.” Then she lets them in to see Isaac.
• Lydia’s mom being so happy that she’s still got it.
• Mr. Argent & Derek talking about Styles.

Things that I didn’t like about this episode…

• Styles being the bad guy.
• When they find the bomb on the bus they didn’t back the kids up nearly far enough.
• Why didn’t anyone put Style’s in a pair of handcuffs and a cell to make sure he doesn’t escape and do more harm?

Is it kmiss yet? I just found the revolver that I wave very badly.

I already have a stockpile of 9mm, so this new 9mm revolver by S&W is just what I was looking for.

Episode 10, Inmates

Summary:

Episode ten, Inmates, starts off with Beth running through the forest with walkers all about. Luckily she’s with Daryl, who saves her butt. Later that night they have a fire going and Beth wants Daryl to help her find some of the others, but Daryl is just sitting, staring at the fire. Of course when Beth stomps off he follows her. (Good Guy Daryl)

Beth and Daryl find some more bodies, but it’s not really clear who they found.

Tyrese, Judith, and the two little girls are alive! And OMG, they are forced to walk through the night because the baby is attracting walkers.

And the two little girls with Tyrese are freaks. I think that Lizzie is a serial killer. There is something about that kid that scars the crap out of me. And why the hell would you give Mika the gun unless you thought that Lizzie was a threat? Which she clearly is.

Tyrese and the girls get in a bad way, and the girls end up getting rescued by Carol just before Lizzie really shows what a psycho she is. And I think that Carol has made her into whatever she is.

Tyrese, Carol, and the girls take the tracks and find a sign saying there is safety at “Terminus”. They head off in that direction and the action cuts over to Maggie.

Maggie, Sasha, and the recovering drunk (I forget his name) go out looking for Glenn and the bus. They find it on the road, but its full of walkers. The three of them take the walkers in the bus one at a time. Maggie has to know if Glenn is dead.

After Maggie clears the bus we find that Glenn is alive and stuck at the prison. Walkers are everywhere, and poor Glenn has to go through some dark and scary bits of the prison with nothing but a lantern. He makes it back to their old cell block and finds his set of riot gear. He puts on his riot gear, gathers some supplies, and makes an awesome break through the zombies. I wish they had made the scene a bit longer and had him fighting a little harder though.

Then, just before Glenn is about to get out he sees one other survivor. The lesbian sister of the Governor’s squeeze. (I forget her name too-sorry). Okay, then I just found it online – Tara. Glenn saves her and she give him the bad news that Hershel is dead. The look on his face was tragic.

The final scene is of a new group of players who pull up as Tara is saving Glenn from his post flu fatigue, bashing in a zombies head. Then we are lefts hanging for next week.

Things I loved about this episode…

• Daryl being who he is and going after Beth. She wouldn’t stand a chance without him.
• The wings on Daryl’s vest. I never really noticed them before. Daryl the avenging angel, it all fits now.
• Judith is alive! And she pooped herself.
• Maggie is alive!
• Maggie’s love for Glenn. She has to know if he’s in the bus.
• Lots of awesome fighting and zombie kills in this episode.
• Glenn is alive!
• The first thing Glenn does is call for Maggie when he comes too.
• Glenn fighting his way clear in riot gear.

Things that I didn’t like about this episode…

• The way Beth just steps over walkers on the ground. For all she knows they weren’t completely dead. Maybe it was just a flesh wound.
• Lizzie suffocating Judith. She has such a crazy look in her eyes. Totally creeped me out.
• There is no way Glenn would have made it out when the walkers were all around him. Not unless he cut loose with his rifle.

Coots died after refusing medical help from a snakebite.

Does this mean he wasn’t worthy? Or that maybe god doesn’t want us screwing around with poisonous animals?
