So at the beginning, I thought The Walking Dead was going to redeem itself, like it was responding to my post about the whole brain scan thing.
Lizzie talks about how walkers are still people, just different people. Similar to how she'll be different when she's older. I felt so sure Carol was going to say something along the lines of, "The difference is that getting older makes your brain more developed. The walkers lose all brain functions except their ability to move, and even that's only initiated by the virus. The virus is just using a dead body to feed."
Carol's actual response? "It's more complicated." ._.
I was able to accept that the science behind the brain scan scene is inaccurate (you pretty much have to expect a lack of scientific accuracy with zombie and/or apocalypse shows and movies, and not worry about it). I guess in the same way, I'm just going to have to accept that the brain scan scene was just for the audience and that I need to pretend the characters never actually saw it.
Hi there!
I've always thought the same thing. It's like that episode never happened or they just forgot about it. I surely didn't! It's such a simple thing to explain so it really makes no sense.
I was actually shocked about the end of this episode.

Hey
Yeah. They really should have done something with what they learned at the lab. Not just use it when someone needs to know, but also write that information down and teach it to survivors to help prevent this mindset that walkers are still human. (Imagine a Walkers-Rights group vehemently protesting against killing "sick people" D: )
And I was shocked at the end of the episode too. Couldn't believe Rick had actually done it until after it happened.

and that lizzie girl shes completely and utterly insane , shes gonna open the prison gates to her zombie friends one of these nights , shes the one feeding the zombies and the way she talked about them sounded like she wanted to become one.
I don't know about opening the prison gates for the walkers - maybe - but I do have the feeling that she's going to do something stupid. Like in a moment of passion, prevent someone from killing a walker and it ends up killing someone in the group. I dunno, I just feel like she's going to cause problems since Carl and Carol couldn't properly explain to her what walkers really are.

! It's spreading!@~!
Also, end of the episode - urgh. I feel like they've exhausted that storyline and I hope they don't spend any more time than a single episode on him (although I doubt it
).
