    I find it a little strange that Michonne and Andrea find out for the first time that they're infected with a zombie super-virus, but they don't ask any more questions about it. They don't seem to have any kind of reaction to this new knowledge. I don't know what I'm expecting from them, some emotion, some questions about where it came from, kicking and screaming, thoughts of suicide... just something????






    (too bad if someone already asked this question, I looked, but I'm not reading every single thread)

    I don't think governor really told them. I think he made kinda unclear

    He said we all turn when we die whether we're bit or not.

    thanks about the avatar! well i heard him say it, but i think that he kinda rushed it so they don't really dwell on it
    plus it's possible that they just think that it was his excuse for killing someone

    I thought their facial expressions worked perfectly. They were shocked to hear it, they just didn't drop to their knees crying "Why, God, Why?!?!?".

    With the facial expressions, a lot can be said with subtle reactions. Less is more.

    I don't find it strange, not at this point in their lives. They've been fighting off zombies for a long time. I'd think they'd see it as a bummer, but not earth-shattering. They probably used up the "aaahhhh!!" emotions when the dead first got up and started walking. Now it's more numbness.

    True, I guess not much else would surprise me after seeing dead people rise up and chase me around the state. EXCEPT finding out that the same thing would happen to me!!! Wouldn't you have more questions about how? or what? Maybe I'm a little dramatic at times, I think I'd faint like Andrea did when she saw her "old pal Merle".

    Remember that when Rick told the group in 313 that "We're all infected"(I still hate that dialogue...), they all had a reaction similar to Andrea and Michonne's....

    I think at some point, after all they've seen and been through, they can't really muster up the energy to worry about what is going to happen to them after they die.

    They probably say "well, who cares, I'll be dead anyway!"

    I would be worried. What if you die, come back a walker and find out - they DO keep a small amount of consciousness!!! More than live people realize. And you're stuck in that disgusting body, roaming the streets, craving Rick tartare. :zombies_shocked: What then!? lol.

    It really depends on what or how you infer their reaction in this situation. Personally...

    Michonne: As an introvert, she's probably a natural in observation and listening skills. Probing is not her strong suit and certainly not her default reaction in a stressful hostage situation.

    Andrea: As an extrovert and the more vocal/curious one, probing is a natural reaction but given the circumstances, IMO she would much rather STFU and have them leave than engage in further conversation.

    When guard is up, stress is heightened and you're trying to read a brand new situation, you'd be worried about safety. Meta-investigation can wait.

    I don't get this at all.

    I thought that they all knew that when you die you come back as a walker, whether you are bit or not.

    I must have missed something somewhere, becuase I thought this was well known, and I was actually surprised when this introduced this as a plot point. I was like WTF?
