Fide Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 Was there an explanation given as to why there were tonnes of zombies in the quarry? Think I must've missed it It showed how the zombies entered the quarry. They basically fell down a screed slope and, once inside, they were trapped. I think the explanation was was that the more zombies in the quarry, the more noise and the more noise, the more zombies were attracted to it. Therefore, zombies in the local area would have heard the mass moaning, been attracted to it, fell down the screed slope or off a cliff and been trapped with the rest of the horde. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aw yeah I forgot about that part, I was also thinking about the trucks though. Were they placed there to trap them in or just there by coincidence? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fide Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 Pretty sure they were placed to trap them in, but as we saw, a few squeezed through the gap, and once that truck fell it was game over. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Kebab Posted October 13, 2015 Author Share Posted October 13, 2015 (edited) No, it was said that there was an encampment of survivors at the bottom of the quarry and they barricaded themselves in with the trucks, which worked to a degree but as has been said, the Zombies fell in anyway from around the sides attacked the encampment, ate or turned everybody there, made a shitload of noise which in turn attracted more zombies, who all preceded to fall in until we saw the numbers that were there at the same time as Rick!!! Don’t know why they didn’t just set fire to them all while they were in the quarry, I’m sure there was a better way than just letting them all out and trying to lead thousands of them away, like maybe parking another truck behind the ones they squeezed between, I mean you’re not talking about criminal masterminds when you’re dealing with the main protagonists of this show!!! “Look Tam, I’m through, aaawwwwfuck, there’s another of those things with wheels here, lets all walk into it for months” Edited October 13, 2015 by King Kebab 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The one where two are pointing at each other and the one which was about to collapse into the quarry? Just still keep them all hemmed in. I had also thought about setting them on fire too! They still kick about when they're on fire though so dunno if that would be the best bet. I had also thought about why they dont just have someone at the gap between the two trucks killing any of them that try/manage to squeeze through. Just a daily chore like everything else.

RandomGuy. Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 Wonder if its the Wolves folk attacking the town, and someone theres setting an alarm off to get rick and that back? Sure they mentioned they werent actually meant to be moving the zombies when they were? So maybe someone in the town didnt realise what theyd done 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kev23 Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 It really annoys me when they take on lots of zombies at one time. As said above, why not just weed them out daily for a bit. I know there were thousands but it just seems ridiculous to bring them onto the main road on the off chance their plan would work. It would be a hell of a lot more boring if they did it the sensible way admittedly. On the situation with the siren. I don't think it'll be the wolves, yet. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Thompson Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 I really enjoyed it although there were a few pretty predictable bits that make me worry that the rest of the series is going to go that way - the guy who threatened Rick dying, Nicholas saving someones life and, of course, the "Its worked ... oh shit!" ending. If its sabotage then there are a few, obvious, candidates - the priest, the kid of the guy Rick killed and Carls gf. I sincerely hope it isnt any of them, that would be really disappointing. Wasnt overly keen on the black and white. Its a fairly cliched flashback mechanism and wasnt really necessary. Still, quality stuff and better than an entire series of FTWD 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't see the point in the introduction they got if they're not behind these kind of things. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, they would be less obvious, though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spain Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 What if The Wolves had started attacking Alexandria somehow, someone who was there stupidly set off an alarm to call Rick & Co for help completely oblivious to the fact that their dry run had in fact become the real thing? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homer Thompson Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 Touché FWIW I think thats the most likely explanation. It would certainly be more believable than sabotage 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
11thHour Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 Next weeks preview shows some shooting and folk injured so it could be an attack or it could be the herd coming straight for them. With the amount of Dead they showed walking towards the town then I would say its gonna be a good bit of chaos which is always good. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
