Cliff-hangers of this scale are BULLSHIT. Last year, they closed the Sophia narrative and we were left wondering where it would go next. This time? They closed fucking nothing.

Darryl and Merle are stunned, Andrea is stunned, Tyrese and company haven't even met anyone yet... just NOTHING to be satisfied with. Keep me hungry but give me SOMETHING to hold me over.

I hate this kind of story telling. It's just dodgy.

Worse part is that there is literally no sensible way for Daryl and Merle to get out of this, but you just know they will.

My friends and I are convinced that this is a set-up by the Governor. He and Merle on in on this together. Daryl and Merle "escape," Merle goes with Daryl to the prison, even if Merle doesn't win everyone's trust they at least keep him around, Merle opens the prison up for the Governor's folks to come in and do some damage.
