I'm thinking it'll be 2014 before we hear what happened to Datu, but I've really missed Burt's voice
Especially when the mission involves water pumps.
As a matter of fact, running water has been a bad omen for these guys throughout the story.
- Randy at the pumping station.
- Micheal, Datu, Riley and Angel at the pumping station.
- Sean working on a running water project for the Colony.
- Datu, Glen and Jay at the water mill.
Grog, I'm surprised that you haven't picked up on this yet.
I wonder what happened between Vic and Michael, too.
Has it been Last-Crusade-like bad and Vic uber-failed at shooting with the machine gun in a critical situation?

Whatever, Doc Steel Cohones will return before the show is over.
I think the guy's jealous since Vic hit on "his girl". Plus, Vic doesn't always like to take orders.
What ever Victor did that pissed off Micheal, it might include an important piece of information that the characters didn't notice at the time. When they discuss it, might go as such, "Hey, I saw such & such when I blankedy blanked during the mission to you-know." Then they'll return to the spot or piece together some pattern or something.
Now, that I've said it, we can all rest assured knowing that this will NEVER happen. Sylvia Browne has a better prediction track record than I do. :cool:
Wait maybe it not Micheal he tick off but instead it is KC. Vic is so awesome that KC can't kill him off so he slow moving him in the background..... Yea that it....
I think Michael is just upset for numerous reason.... Here are just a few........
#1 - Victor is funnier than Michael
#2 - Victor is manlier than Michael
#3 - Victor is smarter than Michael
#4 - Victor is more heroic than Michael
#5 - Victor is more suave than Michael
#6 - Victor is more resourceful than Michael
#7 - Victor is more talented than Michael
#8 - Victor is more amazing than Michael
#9 - Victor is more cunning than Michael
#10 - Victor is more Victor than Michael
Man you guys need to quit dissing on the Mike.. If not for Michael. Most of these damn people would be dead..
Most of the Towerites if not all, All the remaining Fort Irwin guys, and Most of the Colony and Vic included. Cause the Mallers would have took care of them with or with out their guns.
Michael gave Vic a Reason to get the heck out.. Cause Vic would have died most likely defending the Colony against the Mallers. Well just a good possibility anyway.
In the End Mikey saves them all..
PS.. Vic is still badass and one of my top 5 Characters in this Podcast.
@16:50 there is definitely a "Get Up"
Just a theory I am going to toss out there. What if the beeping we heard was the Decoy that Michael had from Ft. Irwin?
I am not sure as to the "Why" just yet but here is where my mind went; Someone or something can be heard clearly running away from Datu at 17:10. At 17:29 we hear some beeping and what sounds to me like a motor of sorts. Perhaps a camera spinning in to focus on something, maybe wheels of the decoy getting closer to Datu? Maybe Glen and Jay were killed and like so many have already stated, Datu is left alive to set up another ambush. Decoy is left behind to take out multiple rescuers coming to Datu's aid.
We all know CJ will come back to the windmill in force when Glenn and Datu are reported missing. Biggest problem with this theory is I believe the Decoy is in CJ's control so ... yea. But just something I had thought I heard and ran with it.
If it isn't the Decoy, perhaps it was a Camera. I recall when Michael ran after Randy, they did not place the last camera they were checking back in the box. Maybe Ink now has a camera and has set up recon of his own.
Might have been Datu pushing the call button, but I think the beeping is just their radio, and CODI didn't beep like that before.
My initial thoughts were that the beeping was a radio. That's why I'm still convinced that Datu has been left as bait for an ambush to lure people out of the colony.
Gee Thanks KC...
Just listened to it again. How's this sound...
z1 attacks Glenn.
Jay kills z1 .
z2 (possibly glenn) attacks Jay.
Datu kills z2 .
z3 knocks gun out of Datu's hand.
z3 is killed by Randy.
Randy tells Datu "Get Up".
Randy drags Datu to the truck or a nearby radio.
Datu calls for help.
If not Randy then somesort of Hero Z...that is a theory that the more I listen to the more I am leaning towards.
:tinfoil::flowerpot:
Let's get back to the arena. We don't know what happened between Samantha's disappearance and later the rescue of Datu. There was a time-gap. What, if Datu was wounded by them zeehs, and what if is kind of a no-turner or slow-turner like what some of us assume about Tanya and Saul ... In that case the attacking zomb might have recognized him as brethren and not prey ...
:tinfoil::flowerpot: ends ...
Best wishes!

What if that was true about all of the people the zombies try and drag back? Remember when Michael saw Randy outside the tower, he was trying to drag away Tanya. Similar to how Datu was dragged away. Michael says that the zombies moved different, like they were one. What if they weren't roaming for food, what if they could smell a 'non-turner' and were on a mission to retrieve her?
Perhaps whatever Tanya and Saul have that is making them either slow-turners/no-turners isn't even unique to them and Datu? What if Samantha, Kalani and pills boy in the Arena all had it too? Well are all dead now so we won't know for sure, but we still could find out something from Datu.
I like this hard right now. Would also give us a "semi-plausible" explanation as to what happened to Mikey at the waterworks'....but damn, Randy is covering some territory.
its funny how unless your really listening for it, the get up doesn't jump out at ya....but then, it does. Also we have heard the inklings speak, we have heard ink speak, we don't know if we have heard Randy(possibly lizzies tape?)but that definitely does not sound like an inkling to me.
Chapter 40 will go down in WA history as being one of the most intricate - it produced many answers and even more questions, and has had some of the most nailbiting scenes of the entire show. As much as I'm looking forward to the next chapter, I believe this is only the beginning of a very long cliffhanger that's going to last beyond New Year.
I do hear a standard handgun and the Matagun.
We should not underestimate how strong Datu is. He might have been wounded, but I bet he could kill a biter with a wrench or whatever is handy. He even killed a biter 2.0 in Denver. He cut it so deeply, it bled out. These are the same ones that shake off small arms fire at close range and ripped open the tanks with their bare hands.
Is it just me, or is Victor's past a BIG mystery? All we know is that he was married, and he supposedly was a Insurance salesman......Now that he has recognised someone that was on trial, maybe it goes in deeper then what appears on the surface....
And as much as I wanna know what happened in the 4 month gap between Vic and Michael, I doubt we will, unless it includes something super plot-related.
P.S. I wonder when/if (most likely), Mr. Skittles makes his amazing return saving Burt and Riley from some zombie attack...
I kinda hope he was an insurance salesman - if I was to ever take out insurance, Victor is probably the only person that could sell it to me.
I am beginning to fear for Datu more and more on each listen. His chances for survival seem, to me, to be pretty minimal. I'm pretty sure you can hear the sound of someone being torn open at approx 16:43. Either Datu's been attacked and is slowly dying or turning, or he managed to get some kind of improvised weapon and kill the zombie attacking him. The fact is we hear the sound of a zombie numerous times after this, which means I'm increasingly leaning towards the former.
Does anyone think the slime covering the pallet jack handle in episode 17-2 left from (presumably) the Little ones will be referenced too again? It doesn't seem like Kc would include it to the story if it was just a one-off moment.....
