Chapter 23 Pt 2 - The Devil's Workshop

[Conf]

Yeah, I found the music from that scene really stayed with me.

Is the length of two bed sheets enough to make a rope to throw at a nearby helicopter?

As far as Lizzie goes, I'm afraid to say it, but I believe she, along with Bricks, Tardust, Scratch and who knows who else, are on thier merry way to the Colony. That's where Durai was headed. So now that Mission: Disturb Hornets Nest is complete they would most likely be on their way to meet up with the other half of the mallers. And by the sound of the recording, it doesn't appear that Lizzie and the others were captured. All's I got to say is, poor Saul.

Where did I get that idea? Was it every revealed where Durai and the other half of the Mallers were headed? I guess I just assumed they were headed south to the Colony. I was under the impression that with all thier radio monitoring equimpment, the Mallers must have heard or made contact with the Colony. Any thoughts?

[Big G]

I am thinking that Saul didn't listen to Lizzy's recording all the way through and when he or when anyone else does they might hear Lizzy saying that she heard some of the mallers mentioning that Durai went south and they will figure out that the mallers are going the colony

[Adventureless_Hero]

I'm making the assumption that Durai's Mallers went to the colony because I don't feel like we got closure with the colony. That loser, formerly known as Gatekeeper, still needs to get his comeuppance! That would be rock ass if one helicopter escorted a large group of survivors to Fort Erwin while the other was loaded with all the Tower bad asses for an air-raid on the Colony! An extraction operation to get Lizzie back. Oh, that would be so boss.

So I just finished listening to the box set today on the road and a thought came to mind: maybe we've been thinking too far south. Maybe Durai and the Mallers discovered the location of the other tower and that's where they went. They have covered a lot more ground in L.A. And might have stumbled upon the "ruins" of CJ's tower.

the only part of that I would question is, what overall purpose would that serve them?. Nit saying I don't like the idea, because I do...perhaps..the tower gets overran to the point of Michael calling it a lost cause..everybody is on the run...and then boom we have season one ender, but with the roles reversed?...i would like that.

[nikvoodoo]

The only reason I mention it honestly is because the one thing we know the Mallers have been searching for since the very beginning of the series (other than toys that go boom) has been a better place to live. Both the Colony and the Other Tower fit the bill, but the other tower would be a better fit for them. Less rules, more control over their own fate blah blah blah.

I still believe Durai went to the Colony because that is one hell of a sexy plot twist. But in terms of fitting their basic group desire and need, The Other Tower would be a really ideal place for them. They'd just have to reestablish the defenses destroyed in the zombie raid (and they might very well have access and knowledge of the other Tower because some of their slaves might have been escapees from the Other Tower....perhaps we may meet this CJ lady after all.....hmmmm....Wouldn't be the first time we met a character we "knew for a fact" was dead.)

I love it when my mind goes all conspiracy theory! It's fun

[7oddisdead]

Isn't it?....and I think we are both on the same page as far as reasons go...i like your CJ is alive twist..i wouldn't have went that route..

[nikvoodoo]

The thought hadn't even crossed my mind until today. When you listen to Samantha and Kalani tell the story, nobody made it out of there alive. But we've now seen 3, potentially 4 people who escaped the zombie onslaught (Hope, Sean, That Other Dude that carried Hope, and Skittles (if you believe he's from there)).

And as a PS: As I have a tendency to shoot holes in theories 'round these parts, please go right ahead. I'm thinking off the cuff right now and would enjoy someone poking a hole in the Durai/Other Tower or CJ lives theories.....Except Kc.....that's just not nice because you already know the answers.

[7oddisdead]

Only hole I can see is while yes, durai primarily wants safe haven for his group....establishing themselves in a place that has already failed and does not expand his territory...makes this unlikely in my mind...unless he knows something we dont
