Correct about bill being 14 floors up, but there are only stairs between floors. As in going from the first to the second floor, you will have to go up one staircase. If you want to go to the 15th floor, you subtract one for the thirteenth floor, and then subtract one more for the same reason you would between floor one and two. (because there is no floor zero)Quote:

Possibly deliberate, but in 1-2 around the 3 minute mark Michael tells Angel his parents live in Northern California, but in 14-3 around the 3 minute mark he tells Kelly that they died. I thought this might be about his issues with mourning those he lost, or not wanting to tell Angel at first, but thought I would check here.
I would say this is quite deliberate, if you listen to his voice he sounds really reserved and tries to change the conversation with shutting Saul down so quickly. Michael is not the kind of person that can express their pain well, no matter how much time has passed.Quote:

Not long at all. So where did the ammo come from? Hollywood mags I wish I could get some...
In 7-3 Michael makes up a batch of homemade Chloroform, which they use to sedate the zombies they tag. Chloroform was one of the original battlefield anaesthetics and was used to sedate patients being treated for gunshot wounds. It was introduced in the 1830s, used extensively in the US Civil War, and continued in use well into the 20th Century.
So in 14-2, when Michael operates on Saul's gunshot wound, and all they have for an anaesthetic is some whiskey, is this because 1) they were out of chloroform, 2) Michael didn't realize it could be used as a surgical anaesthetic, or 3) was that an oversight?
ooooo.....interesting......Quote:

I would say it's because Michael isn't a chemist and what he made was to be tried on the creatures. It'd probably kill one of them is applied directly. Remember, Lizzy was out for a good min just from a wiff.. oh.. and that reminds me of something.Quote:

Crowbar is right. Chloroform is a lot more complicated than Hollywood's put a rag in the face and exit stage left. It is a classic goldielox drug. breath some, stop. The patient starts to stir, give them some more to knock them back out. But, too much and you will shutdown the heart and lungs.
Chloroform sounds like truly nasty stuff, and it's probably better for Saul that they didn't try to use it during his surgury. I am curious how Michael learned about chloroform (he said he learned how to make it overseas, implying in Iraq), and why. Was this something he used in his job as an intel specialist?
I'm pretty sure Mike threw together a bunch of common stuff that we all know will knock you the F out. Bleach and Nail Polish will put you on your ass alone. Put them together and you're probably dead if you inhale in a closed space. He didn't have to worry about hurting anyone but the creatures so strength or care wasn't a consideration.Quote:

Hi Greg and/or Britt
My brother brought up a very interesting topic recently about the podcast, and hasasked me to send it out to y'all in case it hasn't been spotted yet.
In Chapter 2 2/3, at 8 minutes 30 seconds, Michael is explaining how Lizzy has beautiful blue eyes. But in Chapter 20 3/3, at 7 minutes 5 seconds, Tar (I laughed by @$$ off when you guys called him 'TARD') said that Lizzy has some of the prettiest green eyes.
Now, I know that eye color can change as people get older (15% of people's eyes do change), and that there are diseases that can cause some change too (such as Horner syndrome and Fuch's disease). But I am really interested on why they would change it. Is it truly a hiccup, or is there a reason behind it all? Is KC adding some clues on what is supposed to happen? Maybe Lizzy is infected, but she is immune. That's why her eyes are a different color now.
Whatever the cause, I hope we are the first to mention this.
Have agreat day,
Dyehardjr
I moved this from We're Not Dead thread. Kc knows about the eye color mistake and it is being corrected for the re-release of Season 1 this summer. Officially, Lizzy's eyes are Green.Quote:

Except that Burt says something about the bullet bouncing around the empty hull.Quote:

Something else, minor.
Silenced vs non-silenced pistol sounds
When Kelley, Pegs and Michael leave the tower they have a silenced Pistol and the M16 and stungun.
When they get to the Beach house, Michael takes the lead in the room clearing and takes the silenced pistol. They hear something behind a close door and michael shoots through the door. But, the sound affect is clearly a Crack! Not the silenced Pistol sound we hear pegs shoot as they are running to the safe house. That silencer sound is replicated when Michael kills Fernando moments later.
Googled for some images of 16 wheel trucks. Not as common as 18wheels. In addition, they seem to be counting what I think are more like spare tires that do not touch the pavement.Quote:

It could be the sound of the door cracking.Quote:

The last one they mistook an 18 wheeler for a 16 wheeler.
But thanks for helping me visualize it. Basically, the 16 wheeler would have to be a fixed trailer verses a separated tank trailer.
Yeah, that was the door cracking.Quote:

Doh! Nothing like overlooking the obvious.
/hangs head
In Chapter 16 part 2, @ roughly 7:05-7:11, Pegs radios back to the tower to speak with Lizzy ("I need to speak to Toucan.") after she has the Latch nightmare again when she, Michael, and Kelly are at the beach house. But Angel's call sign is Toucan, not Lizzy's. Of course, in the next part of the chapter, 16 part 3, Angel and Kalani are going to give back Latch's body to the Mallers. Unless I'm not thinking this through properly, that would mean that she A) didn't speak to Lizzy at all and just to Angel to ask him for the favor...or B) She spoke to Angel and then to Lizzy.
I just thought that was a little...inconsistent.
3 were lost during the ambushQuote:

Also,
In 1-1 Michael says that the outbreak started on May 8 2009. This was a friday.
In 2-1 When Michael wakes up from his extra long sleep, Saul tells Michael that its friday.
As far as I'm aware he woke up 2 days after the outbreak started. This should be may 10th, a sunday.
Also,
In 21-3 Michael tells Pippin that his room is next to the guard room. Yet it is implied that he needs to be watched in the guard room, and that is where he dies. Why would he need to go into the room next door to the guard room?
Also,
Kelly says she was babysitting Tommy and his sister at her house, but later when at the colony, she says she is from Northern California. She could have moved I suppose.

Could I say it was a different Calendar... Yes... Is it? Maybe. It is a mistake? Sort of. ;)

Things changed in the plan. He was going to be left alone, but then Michael thought otherwise.
Kelly says she was babysitting Tommy and his sister at her house, but later when at the colony, she says she is from Northern California. She could have moved I suppose.
Yup, she moved.
Yay, at least I got one... But you missed my other one. :)
I think this might have something to do with Chapter 24, but it still seems wrong, since all 6 tankers were blown up, and 4 were lost.Quote:

So now that we know what happened to at least one of the tankers....what does that do to our Tanker Math loophole? Make it better or make it worse?
If they had used 6 and lost 4, that means they brought 10 with them originally. They needed 8, and bought 1 extra. It is strange that Tar wouldn't mention that he brought 2 extra really. It is unclear, but I think it probably is no longer a loophole. What I can't work out is if they used 5 or 6 on the Arena, so its not too clear what exactly happened.
If they had planned well in advance to bring a 10th tanker for the tower, then it is possible that Durai had approved it, but that is for the discussion.
MIght also be that they circled back to the ambush site and grabbed one of the ones attacked. not likely though.
We know that in Ch. 24 The Mallers attack the The Tower with rpgs. But the diesel truck The Tower had exploded, but the point is how high would that flame get? This is because the whole area was covered in smoke and if the tower had been on fire the rope connecting the tower with the building next door would have been burned sooner than it had. So possibly someone on the other side of that rope.. *COUGH COUGH don't wanna say it*... might have burnt the rope thus deciding Burt's fate as far as we know. But also it sounds like someone cut the line when listening to the chapter.
No go, Michael says the rope was burnt off at about 10 yards out. How does somebody burn a rope 30 feet away without a flamethrower?Quote:

We know the adjacent tower is smaller than the Tower, so lets say it's 9 stories tall (under the assumption someone put forward that it would take 6 stories to zip line down to the roof and 6 more to zip to the 3rd floor of the Tower (per chapter 7), that means the rope was dangling 60 feet from the ground. If you assume the tanker was 12 feet tall, that means the distance is closer to 50 feet from the fire. And we know there is thick black smoke rising from that fire. And while smoke doesn't necessarily have to be as hot as the fire itself, it can still carry the heat. Fire doesn't have to touch an object to singe it. Extreme heat can accomplish the same task.
Or maybe that the fire in the tower was coming out of a window a floor or two below where they were jumping from
17-3 skittel said "brain not the wost (Angel taked about skilles fright of this one) the coloured one the one with the markings markings, you only see him once then your dead "angel yeah you told me about him before..... i havent seen him but Burt, Michael and Saul did"Quote:

this might be wrong, but this is what i feel
the thing ive wondered is...with the excess heat adding stress to the rope... how much could we blame the rope breaking to the fact that someone had to take riley over with them?
