Ok, in this case the joke is not funny anymore. I quietly retire to a corner squiggling with a stick in the dust.Quote:

Anyone notices how Scratch NEVER sounds scared? She didn't seem bothered at all that a host of angry Colonist could be heading her way through that door. Even when zombies were attacking her convoy os the Mall and everyone was in freakout mode, she seemed invincible.
Also, I think the door is rigged to explode because when CJ stops heself from openning Burt's door and mentions the 'alarm', Scratch replies,
"Oh, so you figured that out, huh?" As if CJ figured out that it was more than just an alarm.
Also, I still think that CJ's blade has Zombie-cooties on it.
Wow. 25 pages. I've got my work cut out for me! But, initial impressions: Holy awesome resistance! I'm full of one question: Where did CJ learn all the superplanning yet consistently not have basic military training?
And one statement: Wow, I didn't expect Kc to kill off Saul. Really.
KC didn't kill Kalani in a cliffhanger... he killed him in the latter half of Chapter 24. His death, along with those of Samantha, Tommy, Bill and all those tower people occurred in an actual scene in the chapter.Quote:

For a little while, she's been set up to be an Eponine-like tragic figure: her own self-imposed spoke in a love triangle.
She's alone in this revolutionary world and has never gotten to taste any joy, rather she lives in her own little castle on a cloud. (or in this case, fortress in Los Angeles)
She fell in love with Saul, helped him to strengthen his bond with Lizzy, went to battle with him to be close to him, and now she's going to die in his arms. We'll get confirmation of this characterization when she sings with her last dying breath, "Without me, the world will keep on turning, and Zombies running everywhere to be killed but I'm not there." All in our next episode of Les Zombierables.
Thank you for correcting Osiris about kalani. He killed himself with a helicopter and a tanker during the fall of the tower. Not a cliffhanger at all.Quote:

Also, let's not forget CJ shooting at Saul as a cliffhanger, leaving us to ponder his fate. Slightly different, the zombie heard after the Pelican lands at Fort Irwin kept us wondering if the base was over-run. Cliffhangers rarely pan out to be how they appear; then again, KC could have just thrown a curveball.Quote:

It's a bit hopeful, but honestly I'm not that sure she's going to die.
Quick question, any listeners or crews dress up as a character from We're Alive? I would like to see pics especially Ink or "Paul".
She's dead, Jim.Quote:

By the way, anyone else read Osiris's posts as Fox Mulder?Quote:

I doubt it, but I think he's gonna have issues getting her out of the Colony. Plus, we know Burt is pretty weak, will he be able to walk out on his own. Certainly Saul won't be able to carry both CJ and Burt.
Now that's a few good points to think about.Quote:

What I am wondering is what exactly the alarm does on Burt's door and why they are so hesitant on triggering it. Because if it is just an alarm, then it really does not matter because the mallers already know that they are there. My thoughts are that it may be rigged to a bomb?
Maybe:Quote:

- it was not the water closet as CJ hoped?
Unless CJ miraculously survives for at least a few minutes to share her thoughts, we'll never know. To be honest: This whole scene is kind of weird? Why did CJ run into the lion's den without waiting for Saul? And why the hell would Scratch - now in charge of The Mallers - go to the prisoner, while The Mallers and The Colonists 'bargain' the situation in The Colony?
All the best!

re: kalani cliffhanger
ding ding..nail on the head. but it goes a bit deeper than that. think of all the implications in chapter 24, we have angel, assumed dead. burt, assumed dead. kalani, assumed dead. then all within the last little piece after the credits we find that an "old man" is alive (presumably taking burt out of the equation) and someone else is alive but pretty messed up. that could account for either kalani or angel. now, throw on top of that the fact that kalani essentially outed himself as the rat without truly saying it. and he could somehow miraculously have survived, but we dont know...nor did we (at that point) know if we would get any of the back story as to the hows/whys he did whatever he did....how could you not call his death a very big part of the last two minutes of season two?Quote:

of course i am...i listen to bizzarro w/aQuote:

It turns out that The Colonists, although being under heavy control by The Mallers, have guns; and as of this very moment the stable situation with Durai in the lead is traded with an unstable situation in which two groups fight for their lives and especially the control over The Colony - at least this is what I'd expect from red-shirted as well as named Mallers, even from Scratch, because she shot Durai in order to survive in the end!
Minute 3: Scratch shoots Briggs and runs somewhere. To aid The Mallers fighting the rebellion? To get to Burt, who is locked down and well hidden and probably weak?
In case my assumption is totally wrong, I'd follow your lead: When hell breaks loose, Scratch makes the badger and doesn't give a shit about The Colony; she runs to Burt to force the information out of him, kill him and then leave the Colony with or without Tardust.
BUT: When CJ receives note from Shovelface that the armory is taken by the rebellion, Scratch kind of freaks out. Why would this be, if she does not care so much about what is going on in the Colony? So, I think, Scratch does care about The Colony - especially since this is the only place she's got. And she actually knows: If The Mallers are not able to (re)gain control over this place, The Colonists will be kind of a problem - even for her.
So again the question: Why would she care about something that's almst safe over something that her lifes heavily relies on? Makes no sense to me. Or was she just toooo over-confident that things would fall into place soon enough?
All the best!

if we are talking about the colony itself, then yes. of course she'd "like" things to go in the favor of the mallers...specifically the mallers who have her back. but really, throughout this story we have seen her use, abuse, and ultimately send her own people out to be killed justify her own motives. if those on "cj's side" have the armory that means her own escape became that much more difficult. really if we break things down to their core, cj and scratches characters are very very alike. follow the arc of each ones storyline and similarities are surprising. almost the same character but each from a very different enviroment...good gravy im sounding like osi now.....i give up...you win liam...im too tired to do this shit right now(4am)Quote:
