Lydia's reasoning for Carol to kill her for the good of all was the same reasoning Carol killed and torched the sickies back at the prison, Karen and David? she did it for the good of all. I couldn't help but think it reminded her of her past actions.

 

only if crossing the river counted as a bath

 

Yes! I loved that call back.

 

I lost a lot of respect for the zeke there and I didn't have that much for him to begin with, the whole "king" act has been a turn off for me ever since these charaders first aired... Granted, things have improved since Sheiba's death but barely, there was the movie thing...

I don't mind these people living in an enclosed town, I don't believe that to be the smartest way to survive in a ZA but I can see a LOT of colonies and groups of people doing just that.

But "burning" a commodity or a resource that would be scarce or rare on a good day (such as electricity) for entertainment purposes feels very Mad Max'ish to me and if not out of place then certainly unwise.

This "burning" has been the underlying tone at the kingdom ever and forever, Ezekiel acting the big shot throwing parties at any cost and basically acting like there's no tomorrow.
It is why I never really cared for Ezekiel, I can not fully believe a faker like him would ever command an entire town of followers, it just doesn't work like that in the real world.

And then, oh yes I almost forgot...
For the Zeke to ask Daryl that shit?
I rewound twice to make SURE I really heard what I thought I heard the first time.
And I was like yup, I did heard it right the first time...
So there's his true colors finally shining through, and what an asshole.

Daryl was the cool one thou, wow super kudos for how he handled that.

 

I think it was immature and pathetic (as in pathetic like I'm sad watching his clutching at straws)
I am glad daryl didn't say anything back really like agree to leave or argue etc. Poor Daryl. lol

 

Probably the closest thing he's had in a decade

 

I think Carol must perceive Lydia not as a real or potential threat to the community, unlike a sick Karen and David and unlike Lizzie and so she did not kill Lydia even when Lydia asked her. I imagine, if Carol somehow thought otherwise, she would have no problem of killing Lydia. Carol does not have to be asked as she would do a preemptive strike.

I wonder whether or not Daryl has told Carol of Lydia being abused by her mother.
