I have to add that Victor is really a nice guy, especially if he asked Saul and Lizzy to leave the colony. Truly altruistic. Just hope he survives. Go, Victor!
Well this seems to be the most likely outcome, it also gives a way to identify Randy as freaky fucker in the beard....Possibly learn more about Ink/Randy/Super special general zombie fuckers.....lots of potential to grow out of this....Love it.Quote:

a full month of ridiculous predictions away! early estimation, 33 pages of forums posts here alone before the next episode.....

Sorry, it was one of my birthday presents by my girl-friend. I liked the beginning but the longer I read...Quote:

Hmm, as the head of your agency, I thought all you believe in were only human???Quote:

My quick take on the episode overall. Wow! Really setting up the demise of of heroes here... It's hard to see how even some of them come out of this alive.
But it is a story of survival and most of these folks have been doing it so far. The pelican (now weaponized and carrying a powerful payload) will be key of course. Michael was near Tanya so can help get her to the bird. Datu and Hope are there and we have a crew. Pegs and/or Kelly are still wild cards at the moment...
Where to go? Well, they think the Colony is "safe" since the "We're under attack" part of the message didn't get through.. but what will they find there? I'm betting on the Ft Irwin crew swooping in on the pelican (cue "Flight of the Valkyrie") and creating enough havoc to get Saul, Lizzy, Victor, and Burt out (sorry CJ!) before the hordes start to sweep back in.
Hopefully more stuff to fill us in on the Zeds themselves (esp Ink and possibly-Randy) and then we are left with a pelican full of survivors looking for a place to go.
Then we wait.... (and listen to seasons 1 - 3 again. A few times.)

Carry on, citizen.
Maybe it was just the German translation that sucked big time.Quote:

Ok, back to topic. My assumption might be wrong, but have Datu and Hope not slept for days? I do not see Datu in any condition to be able to repair the pelican without a rather high chance of dropping a fatal clanger? Yeah, there might be streams of adrenaline pumping through his veins - but Datu the Resourcefull is just a human. Then again, Hope tries to help him and you know what they - luck is blind.
Are you effing serious? Just a couple of hours after release and we are at page 8 of this discussion already? Let me take my breath and get sorted with what you guys have written so far.
My comment about #35-3 is pretty shot as of now:
DYSTOPIA XXL!
And I am pretty proud - and yet not so proud - that many of my assumptions actually took place ... Not so proud, because things look dark and pretty much hopeless as of now ...
All the best!

Thanks for proving me "wrong" - to some degree at least ...Quote:

Not to get all girly, but eeeeee!!! I couldn't have been more excited to listen to this episode while I shoveled a mouthful of buffalo chicken into my mouth. Oh boy Ink's back and he's gone all stratego on everyone's ass. Okay I can wait one more week... Wait... It's three more weeks, ugh. Get the damn chopper fixed, fly to the colony, save Burt, Saul, Lizzy & Victor then go to the Keys and relax on the beach with a couple of 6-packs.
Ok, I'm done reading. Have nothing to add which would not double things already mentioned. Go on with theories - crackpot or not ...
Oh, one thing:
In chapter one he killed MILLIONS, if not BILLIONS of people. What are 1xx.xxx during the last chapters? ;)Quote:

Will R2-DATU fix the hyper-drive on the Millennium Pelican?
Will H.O.Pe.-0 be ripped apart by the Sand Zombies?
Who Is Driving the Van?
Did Micheal crap his pants?
Will Gabriella say, "Yes?"
Ugh, The cliffhangers!!:mad:
There's another nuke. Will it be used? I'm betting Kimmet will self destruct if you follow my meaning.
The last two episodes left me speechless. The fast pace, and all the open things getting closure, just masterful. After listening to this last one, though, I feel a bit like it's wearing me down.
It was ok when they had massive problems and disadvantages to overcome, but now? Scratch Norris escaping execution and dodging bullets in a hallway, Ink Norris sneaking in the colony, figuring out how to open the gate (and him or Randy know how to drive a van), essentially behaving like a human foe would, Inklings Norris that can stop bullets with their skin, can resist extreme temperatures, can tear up a helicopter hull and now, apparently, tear out f-ing tanks with their bare hands?!
Man, who cares if Saul and Lizzie got back together, they have no hope at all!!!
In the first two seasons it was tough, granted, but at least it seemed humanly possible to survive!
I can't wait for the finale, anyway. Irwin is gone, if they can tear through tanks they can just destroy walls and kill everyone.
Where will they go, on the helicopter again, now that the tower is down, the colony will be overrun, as will Irwin? Dum-dum-duuuuum!
