–Assuming that Glenn and Enid return to the others safely, will Glenn’s story line now get back to following that of the comic books? (Fans know that Jeffrey Dean Morgan was recently cast in the role of Negan).Īnd finally, what about you? Is your pleasure over seeing Glenn alive enough to wipe away your anger over being “played” by the producers/writers? Looking back, was it a case of clever storytelling - or just a cheap trick? (I liked how one frustrated blogger compared it to Lucy with the football).Ĭontact Chuck Barney at /BayAreaNewsGroup.ChuckBarney, or Twitter.Social Networking sites have been embraced by white people since their inception. Will Alexandria (and Deanna’s expansion plans) even survive now that one of the guard towers is toppling over and destroying part of the fence? What is Ron doing following Carl with a loaded gun in his possession?! Is he on an eye-for-an-eye revenge mission? (Getting back at Rick for killing his father). What’s going to happen now that Carol has discovered that Morgan is harboring a Wolf prisoner? Fireworks seem imminent. But the “Walking Dead” writers, obviously realizing that a major question has been answered, have gone out of their way to put several more intriguing plot twists into play during this hour. Of course, Glenn’s story line is, by far, the biggest plot twist of the hour - the one fans will be discussing deep into the night. (For Maggie, green balloons never looked so good in her life). As they head back, they snag some green balloons that will make for a great way to signal their friends back in the safe zone. He grabs the gun from Enid and, eventually, he talks her into going with him. He wants to get back to Maggie and he’s taking Enid. “What’s the point?

She doesn’t want to go back to Alexandria. Though she showed that she does have a shred of humanity by helping Glenn, Enid is still in sullen-teen mode. And it only stands to reason that Glenn and Enid will happily lock arms and march their way back to Alexandria and everyone will sing a William Pharell song. OK, now all of this is starting to make sense. Enid, of all people! A sight for sore eyes. “Heads up!” she calls out as she throws a water bottle down to Glenn. Glenn finds the flare gun but it’s broken - hence no signal for Maggie and the others to see.Īnd now we learn that Glenn has a surprise helper. Only a few lifeless walkers lie scattered in the alley. When he finally emerges, the zombie mob has dissipated. Glenn spends at least one night under that dumpster (with a full moon in the sky), a plastic water bottle his only sustenance. From there, he witnesses - close up - the ravaging of Nicholas. 25 episode, Glenn’s body was conveniently, and safely, wedged under that of Nicholas.Īs the zombies claw away at Nicholas’ bloody innards, Glenn pulls off his amazing Houdini act, sliding under the dumpster. As many fans pointed out after dissecting the Oct. As the hour opens, we hear the words “Thank you” (uttered by Nicholas) and relive Glenn’s scary plunge into the zombie horde (in slow-motion no less). Sunday’s episode, “Heads Up,” provided immediate Glenn relief. And, yes, he managed to survive the way many astute fans guessed he had from the start - by scooting under the trash dumpster while the zombies feasted on Nicholas.
