I didn't. I was quite happy with it.

I DO HOWEVER think the crow thing is very very real now. It was just too damn obvious in this episode.

Oh, I didn't mean to convey any displeasure. I was amused by it. Then again, my humor tends to be a bit caustic.

Yup, twice. Once at ground zero just before #7 shows up and then again at the van. Was the one at van just to punctuate ink or is it crow recon? I do not know

your humor eats through proteins? That's crazy!

mine is like the Sahara, dry and dusty...and thousands of miles from me.

I'm being a smartass, I can't wait to get to a real computer. Bunches of stuff to wallotext in here.

---

I don't know, but Monsters was one of the names suggested by Tommy for the zombies. Michael said that the name sounded too weird.

The courthouse in Inglewood?

Hmm, seems like we now know where he may have been attacked and turned, yet his eyes didn't turn cloudy.

He killed his cheating wife, her boyfriend, his family, their dog, it's chew toys, a gold fish and ripped off those 'Do Not Remove' tags from all of the pillows.. So, he was extremely butt-hurt.

The mental health professional involved with his case says that he is lucid and could freak out involuntary or at will. (Who the hell freaks out at will?)

He got the tattoos while in jail awaiting his trial.

So, first question of mine is, why didn't his eyes change?

So it said that Ink was being treated at the psychiatric study. Could that study have included administration of medication to keep him calm or in control? Could there be a similar connection to the antibiotics that Saul was given or something perhaps Tanya has taken. Maybe to the degree you have a specific medication in your system you are able to resist turning. Maybe the medications in Ink's system weren't enough to keep him from turning but enough to help him retain some of his mental and physic abilities?
