Why stop now... The writers may as well go all the way until nobody is watching except the diehards.

 

I think he suffers more from constipation tbh.

 

Yeah i dont buy him being that stupid either.

 

I'm not sure what to make of that. I think Nick is a smart enough guy to not be falling for this, which makes me wonder if he was just playing along to try and get some inside information or something like that.

 

He's just trying to fit all the pieces together and figure it all out by listening to all sides. That, or he's an idiot!

 

No way nicks drinking the kool aid. He see's zombies as dead/needs to be stabbed in the head people PERIOD. The second Nick figures out that his new abuela is keeping zombies alive hes ganna have beef with senora Hershel.

 

I agree. I feel like they are setting Nick up to be open to not just outright killing walkers. The whole "I'm tired of all the killing" line.

But I think having to take an ax and split open the head of a little girl might mess with YOUR head a little bit too. I keep having to remind myself that these characters are not the hardened ones we see in TWD. They are all relatively new to all the stabbing and chopping and slicing and shooting of other "people".

 

Having to put down children would tend to unnerve someone, it even affected Salazar, particularly if it's your first time. As far as the religious stuff, it wouldn't be the first time someone with an addictive personality traded one vice for another.

 

He probably hasn't had a good bowel movement in some time, the constipation's hindering his ability to think clearly.

 

That's the vibe I got too, which is I was really upset at that scene. This will ruin his character IMO, really wish they don't go this direction with him but you're probably right =/ His story is supposed to be more about how he is in control because he's used to this world. Suddenly he's the one who can handle it the least and is succumbed to a cult? Just a 180 on his character I wouldn't enjoy.

 

Like Glenn!

 

That storyline seems pretty silly.

 

Ugh. If the writers mess with Nick and make him stupid out of nowhere, it's going to kill my only reason for still watching this show. Well, him and Salazar. Wait and Chris too....love me some sociopaths.

 

Nick and Salazar have been the best main characters main characters. I never cared for Chris.

 

I didn't either until he started going down the path he's on now. And actually, I still don't like HIM....just his story line.

Strand.....he has potential. But I just wish he'd stop being so mysterious to the group. I understand playing your cards close to the vest, but it doesn't come off right to me. It just feels like the writers are making him that way and that's that. lol

 

It's not that I like Chris, really, I just thought he had the potential to become interesting. I enjoy an interesting character even if I don't like them, like Merle on TWD. Totally agree with you about Nick and Salazar.

 

I can understand that it would be rough the first time your faced with a little kid walker. So, I thought his reaction was realistic. But his interaction with Celia seemed off to me. Based on how the writers have developed the characters I'd think Chris would be more likely to buy into crazy.
