New York 1925 prohibition is in its zenith, the
Great as only a few years a way and the city have an excessive number of violin
players. This is home of young and hunger soon to be mob bosses such as Benjamin

The Walking Dead Mid - Season Final: Was The Governor
Death To Easy?

After viewing The Walking Dead mid-season final my
first thought as that The Governor (David Morrissey) death, appear one
of mercy than one of revenge. I am guessing that like many of viewers there was
the pervert anticipation of seeing the governor as either meat for the walkers
or as a shoveling huger eyed walker in a future episode. It did not happen.
What we see is a mother revenging the death of her daughter on a man who fails
in his promise to keep them safe and alive. I mean, shouldn’t he have been
chewed on by the walkers a little bit to satisfy the blood lust he stirred in
us when he cold bloodily beheaded harmless old Hershel Greene (Scott
Wilson)?

The destruction of the prison was coming. We all
know this to be true. Rick (Andrew Lincoln) and his band of survivors
had remained there along enough for the zombies’ horde to grow large enough
that come running them in time. If the governor has not arrived when he did
would they have to discover the ‘feeder’? It is unclear whether the person
feeding the rats wanted to destroy the survivors ability to live in the prison
but the question of why do it at all still remains unanswered. 

Why destroy the
safest place the group has found to live? Was it an act of revenge? Did one of
the children think of the walkers were hunger animals? Just how sinister is the
motive of the feeder and is he/she still in the group to be discovered in a
future episode? Did the feeder give Rick’s daughter over to the walkers
to save his/hers cowardly hide?

In additional, how is Carol (Melissa McBride)fairing
on her own. Is still travelling alone? Has she formed or banded with another
group? Will she be allowed return to the Rick’s group? Moreover, will Rick
get the chance to tell Tyreese (Chad L. Coleman) that she killed his
friends before he and Carol have a chance meeting on the road? Finally,
where will the group go now? Now that the walkers are pushing more and more in
their general direction, will Rick and his people find new shelter. The
walkers travel like homing birds, so why head west. What is drawing them in
that direction?
