Probably has already been stated but I can't help but think that maybe Michael does not make it out of this alive. I know many thought that since he was narrating the bulk of the episodes that he is alive at the end of this. But this episode especially has me thinking otherwise.
Hearing Michael speak to Kelly via journal entry, and her typing up the reports...I'm just thinking that maybe all of them die out, someone else finds this soft copy of journals and reads it through.
That's cuz it wasn't really Roberts...Quote:

Na, I do not think so. Michael still has to write his journal and I guess that someone who transcripts his notes will not include the fun writing after Michael is torn apart or turned. It would be a bit inappropriate.Quote:

My point being when someone else is reading the Journal and the journal author is still narrating it has been because the original author is dead. At least its the sensation I've come away with.
The fact that the biters stayed outside of the van for THIRTY minutes on the day of the outbreak says that something out of the ordinary was happening. People had to be running in every direction, and these two are never distracted from trying to get in to get Roberts.
Yeah, that is a valid point. However, I am just a Michael Cross fan boy, he is just the poorest fellow of this whole zombicalypse thing. It is true, I am biased. :)Quote:

That got me thinking quite a bit too.
Not quite sure what you're getting at, but Kelly is transcribing Michael's entry and when she reads he was insulting her in the entry she alters it to make herself sound good and types it so he insults himself. If he died there I don't think she would make a joke like that when transcribing it. If you are thinking everyone dies and a 3rd party is reading the Journal then that would mean Kelly made journal entries about her transcribing journal entries which would be kind of redundant, I say that because we actually heard the angry typing in the background. I think everything is still going on somewhat real time, but the story is being told through journals.Quote:

I did not take it as Kelly backspacing and editing his writing, I took it as Michael showing he was being facetious and complimenting Kelly after his jab at her.Quote:

Well, maybe I have a different understanding about what was described: After thirty minutes Ink left the car. And then there were two regulars who were in shock and awe about Ink. Since the tape was fast-forwarded we actually don't know that these two particular zombs waited there for thirty minutes. We don'T even know if these two are two of the three which attacked Inks van and Ink ...Quote:
