I suppose, I just thought there would have been some sort of dialogue between Saul and Tanya about why she never said to him but if there's one thing I've learnt from reading through these forums is never question why something was mentioned or not mentioned at a certain time.
Thank for the welcome, just wish I'd got here sooner! annoys me a little that I'm joining during the last season.

Did a fast paced listen through at work today. Might get in a good listen tonight or in the morning.
Also caught up on 12 pages of this thread....
First thoughts: We're getting the long setup. This leads me to believe we're gonna get a big payoff. But when? And with whom? Hmmm
Why would Saul and Victor take it on the chin? What have they got to gain or lose? If they defy CJ right now, they bring down the potential wrath of the rest of the Colonist on them. CJ's word is law (at least for the moment). So, get outta Dodge with what you can that's valuable. Lizzy is coming with them. Tanya and Lady are staying... for now. We have a built in reason for Tanya to get out of the Colony and up to Dunbar in the future. Lady is easy enough to smuggle along.
So with respect to Saul, he looks to have things in place to get his woman, his baby, his momma, and his dog to a place that is (as much as it can be) safe - considering he lived there with no real incident for many months. It's actually not looking so bad considering the option might be to get thrown out in the streets with nothing.
Now, how far will CJ go in honoring her "agreements" with Saul and Victor? With Michael? With Tanya?
I could see her sending Saul/Vic/Lizzy off to Dunbar and then forbidding any contact after that. No Tanya going up there. No recon or supply runs. None of the soldiers/Army stuff allowed out there. CJ will probably lockup comms just as tight in the Colony as Marcus did. Hell, she did at Dunbar.
This is leading to split force and split loyalties. The enemies will be looking to take advantage of this and I think we will start seeing them reappear very soon.
I'm holding to stuff I talked about in the 37 episode threads that Michael and others will eventually see what CJ is doing/has done and eventually leave her twisting (hopping?) in the wind. How it all plays out is still wide open and I can't wait to see how our storytelling host weaves it all together.
Good episode, Kc and crew!
Well, my days of not taking you seriously are certainly coming to a middle.Witch_Doctor liked this post
Aside from the title, Unity Makes Strength, being the slogan for Fascism (Real Fascism, not the boogieman fascism that describes a government or political party that you don't like), I'm guessing that at some point within the next two episodes something will happen that will emphasize the need for everyone to stick together. Either they'll start getting picked apart while they are apart or they're gonna eat the zombies for lunch by each person bringing something to the table.
Perhaps the title is another example of a double entendre. (Or Triple entendre because KC & Blair just got married. Seriously, are all of this season's titles gonna have a Just Married theme? )
Edit: OK, My bad. The Fascism slogan is Strength Through Unity. But Unity Makes Strength is the National motto of The Netherlands, Bulgaria and Haiti... Still same concept.

Doctor? Doctor who?
NO! Witch Doctor, fool!
It sounds like CJ isn't banning them forever. I like her management decisions; I think she is solid.
I'm surprised that Victor and Saul didn't say anything, but it's actually for the better. I am also surprised that CJ would've thrown them out the way she did when she is so dependent on Saul's mother.
I thought Hope's reaction was a bit strange. My god the girl is getting some vision back, you'd thought that she'd be a bit happier.
