Pegs and Marcus

[Red Shirt]

At some point, though, Pegs would have had to make the connection that Angel was Family and then probably reveal that knowledge to Angel when requesting that he deliver Latch's body. Possible, but I'm still not in that camp. Of course, we know so very little about the Family so it could be one of those threads similar to "the Rat" that will become painfully obvious in hindsight...

So maybe there is something to the Doomsday cult deal.

Nice connection there. Although this is painfully stretching it, even by my foil hat standards; Here's another to add to the pile:
Black hexagon: Carbon, commonly associated as being black, a constituent of benzene which is a hexagonal molecule and further constituent to the previously mentioned Poly-cyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons.


Ooookay. I think that's enough internet for the afternoon. Time to go and get out of the house for a while.

Speaking of the Family ring.


It reminds me of this:

Either that or someone was really into Led Zeppelin.......

Or how about this... Pegs worked in a flower shop before this all happened, Angel gave directions to his girlfriends apartment building from the base. Could be at one point Angel stopped in at Pegs' shop and bought flowers for his girlfriend, could have been on multiple occasions. When Angel walked in he could have been wearing the ring, Pegs saw it and made the connection with John after she shot him.

As for Pegs saying she's never shot a gun could be a lie. With how good her aim was when she went to the colony with Michael and Kelly I don't really believe it. She says her father flies Cesnas, unless he was a private pilot for someone rich he was rich himself. He could have insisted that Pegs learn to use a gun to protect herself. I can see Pegs lying and saying she has never shot one because she didn't want to have to use one on something that was once human. How often do people actually get two for two when they shoot something with a pistol? I know I couldn't.

Just realized I've been a member for a year!!

So, I am relistening to Season1. When they confront TOWTM impersonating Paul in the hallway, Burt shot him in the chest twice. Pegs in all her first hand biter fighting experience, pleads with Burt to shoot it again because "it is not enough". Burt has killed lots of biters as they get back to the Hummer and then retake the tower. Headshots do not seem to be required. If they were and Michael did screw up the aim, he does not think a headshot is required. Peg does...

Seems to me Pegs does not know anything about killing biters, but she sure the hell knows something about TOWTM

Speaking of the Family ring.

Looking at the ring, doesn't it look like there are 3 rings on the symbols, perhaps that indicates 3 families as being part of "The Family".

Chapter 12 part 1 ~ 1:00

Peg's soliloquies "...let the GUARDIANS defend us." Interesting choice of words. She will not meet Marcus and the colony for another few weeks. Michael always refers to himself and others as Soldiers.

I always wondered if Pegs shot the zombie that was attacking the car on the way to the Colony. As far as the plane her father flew, I assumed he was an airline pilot. She explains to Michael on the yacht that he was a pilot of a plane and not a ship.

'Shoot him again' always had me stumped because I didn't think that the Towerites shot him when he first attacked Paul. They just locked themselves into a room and hid.

(Pegs) says her father flies Cesnas, unless he was a private pilot for someone rich he was rich himself. He could have insisted that Pegs learn to use a gun to protect herself. I can see Pegs lying and saying she has never shot one because she didn't want to have to use one on something that was once human.

Pegs' dad wouldn't have to be rich to fly Cesnas. He could be a fractional owner or belong to a club. Neither of those require large amounts of cash. And with the way she avoided guns up to The War, it seemed like she wasn't interested in shooting anything ot anyone - living or "undead".

This got me thinking about TOWTM/Ink/Pinstripes: the recent "Puppet Master" artwork release before Season 4 shows a hole in his hand and Kc confirmed that it is a wound from where Burt got him as he ran from the Tower. That means that TOWTM's skin can be penetrated by bullets. Burt shot the hand with a .50AE - a big honking round. Burt shot TOWTM center mass with 5.56 rounds. The 5.56 rounds travel pretty fast. Most bulletproof vests/flak jackets/soft body armor won't stop them (unless there is a trauma plate in there) at close range - and this shooting was definitely close range.

So, I'm leaning towards TOWTM having something like level IV body armor on underneath the suit when he went into the Tower.

Now, I'm making some assumptions here that might not be true. Mainly that if TOWTM's chest could stop rifle rounds then his hand could stop long range pistol rounds. That could be debated....

Also, this really has nothing to do with the threads topic, so I should probably go find another place to post this. Hmmm....

Did Burt shoot TOWTM/Ink/Pinstripes with Shirley?

[Grognaurd]

I hope not. Two hundred plus meters open sight pistol with a single shot. I will have to relisten. I thought it was a rifle and I even think I heard him fiddle with the mechanics. Brb...

Yea, I am not a gun expert and cannot tell by sound. But, does not sound like Shirley. I hear like a receiver charging, is that the right word? Then as he aims, click click click a few times. I figure he is doing something to the sights, probably range. Burt is an expert and maybe even doing some windage estimates.

Son of a bitch! KC are you that awesome and it is a salute to Veterans day or just coincidence?
