Wasn't the "You can run around now" her hallucinating about her child Nicholas growing up and going out to play? I'm pretty sure there's more to her background mumbles.. i must have another painful listen. (feels morbid :( )

Unless it's in the form of a Return of the Jedi ending, with the ghosts of Datu, Lizzy and Angel nodding their approval whilst the rest of the survivors celebrating their defeat over Ink and his undead army.

Without the ewoks, of course :nik:

Well, I hope they can show up for the party, anway, even if they don't perform. :nik:

Same goes for Tony, Muldoon, and all the rest of the corpses Kc will create between now & then...

Why did the skeleton not go to the party?

Because he had no body to go with!

BOOM!

Seriously though, who will be left standing at the finale? After this episode, it's very hard to predict.

I know there's some stuff that is none of my business... but... if Kc replaces Angel with fucking Hayden Christensen I swear to j0be I will burn this place to the ground.

THE. GROUND.

It sounded like something fell in the distance. Sort of a metallic sound. Victor asks Micheal 'what is it' and Micheal responds with something like, maybe nothing.

The decision wasn't, because it was determined a LONG time ago, but the process was. I had to listen to her die more than most, and then also perform the foley of Saul with her dying, so it was rough. I knew if I was still effected by it the 20th listen through, I knew it would be one of our strongest moments in the series.

Hmm, So the story is Micheals version of 'How I met your mother'?
As in Uncle Michael is telling the story to Nicholas.

I guess they can feed baby Nicholas on Pegs cow milk and "Dogs" goat milk.

Strongest moment is an understatement. Kc, that scene was masterfully executed. Sauls performance was perfect.

I mostly lurk here, but had to post for this one. I have never reacted to anything outside of real life tragedy the way I just reacted to that scene.

Wow. I am minutes removed from listening and am still crying. I am a grown man that has seen and experienced horrific things that have not affected me in this way. I felt like I was there. It was so real to me. It might have a something to do with my wife being pregnant again after having a baby a year ago but...wow.

Im, I, I dont know, I can't even express myself right now. My god that was painful. Im scared to listen to it again.

Bravo everyone. That episode will be hard to beat.

:nik:

Trying to analyze it (cuz that's what I do), there's no single thing that's not true of other shows/podcasts; yet my reaction has been way more intense than I would have anticipated.

Is this is the "catharsis" that they talk about in Greek Tragedies? I'm trying to figure it out.
- It's aural--I have to use my imagination in a way that's similar to reading. I vividly imagine the story--which makes it more real to me. I know I find the sound design fascinating.
- I've been listening for a while now; so I've developed a faux relationship to the characters.
- The acting was astounding; I didn't have to dismiss any "off notes" to distract me from the experience.
The thing is, I didn't find myself saying "boy, that's an amazing performance" or "wow, that sounds so realistic" so much as just experienced it. There's something in this episode that, for want of a better word, transcends.

Can we PLEASE stop spoiling the finale of HIMYM for those of us that haven't seen it yet?! Jeez, it ended not even two weeks ago!!!

I'm starting to feel that Saul is going to go into a deep depression in the next episode/s, and form a sort of shell not even Tanya can break.....

Like Rick during season 3 of The Walking Dead.

I don't think he'll have time. The Pelican is en route to the Colony, where we know Scratch is about to make her move. Shits gonna hit the fan in the next chapter :nik:

Exactly. Just when shit hits the fan, he will brake down, it's the worst possible time: just when they need him....

Awesome photos, Deacon! The one of Tammy sitting in the chair looking gutted and the one with Jay (Datu) and Blair (Lizzy) hugging are great ones (among an already incredible set of photography).

What an amazing episode! Probably the best chapter so far, too.

I was sad for Datu but at the same time I had peace with his passing. His "seeing" Samantha in the last minute was a great touch.

Lizzy going tore me up. Saul and Tanya's reactions added to it. I'm glad she got to see and hold Nicholas.

I read Kc's post and blog about planning the events way in advance so the making peace with the decision to "kill them off" has had plenty of time to come. After listening to it 2 times now, I can't imaging what 20 times would be like esp. with your wife doing the acting..... You're hard mofo Kc... :squint:

I think, for the first time in my listening history with WA, I'm going to need the 2 week break before the next chapter starts....

i guess the photoshoot kinda brought it all full-circle.

we hear these guys in moments of loss, toughness, emotion, in the midst of a fight scene... and to see an image of them now after hearing hat lastest chapter... it's just cool.

I just hope the Next Chapter is full of The Good Guys Kicking some Ass.. Now Saul has a Reason to go full Auto on the Zombies like Michael wants to do..
If it was not for them attacking they might could have saved Blondie.. But now is rage will need to be directed to them.. I really hope he does not blame Tanya for her death..

Hey guys, I just cannot stand having to wait for almost two weeks for the next episode. What should I do here in Germany to pass the time - maybe watch some Stackenblochen...

It won't. As soon as WA fans have passed the grief and sorrow there will be enough talk about what's going to happen next or what (un)certain things imply ...
