Chapter 39-3 Chemical Reactions

[Th3_T3ch]

So no one on the thread seems to know what Follistatin is, so I did some research. Follistatin is a protein that is often found in ovaries and the skin. It helps skin reformation and improves muscle growth. This is probably the chemical that was found on Randy is the reason why the Little Ones aren't so little anymore. I think Ink/Bill Roberts/ WI Roberts P.h.d was using it on the behemoths first and then on his little ones after he perfected the dose. Randy might have been turned by Ink himself and is why Randy is more special than any of the smart ones. Also the first smart one we hear about is on the roof of Locked and Loaded, and is from Raydon Labs. Too many things are stacking up here. And we know Kc isn't a man of coincidence, so that means that Dr Roberts/Ink is either the cause of all of this or is the reason why LA is so much worse. We heard no reports from Boulder that Denver had special zombies and even down by the colony they have gotten more people from San Diego than from LA.
Conclusion: Dr Roberts is Pinstripes. He is for some reason different, and probably not just because he was schizophrenic. We know he was incredibly smart, and important enough to make headlines in the news. When Roberts was turned he retained most of his intelligence and used it to create a special zombie army.

As the Leader and only member of the Anthony Robbins fan club, I am happy to announce that despite being fat Robbins has survived this Chapter! Free beers for everyone!

As member of Victor's Mucho Macho Fan Club, Victor can have easily got on this mission. Come on, he has lost weight and could got toe to toe with Number one.

I've got a feeling that myostatin might just be the next thing we hear about in the podcast as a possible way to combat this stuff.

great catch!

2. Dr. William Issac Roberts: Alright! ....So unless this is another Bill Roberts we're talking about (maybe a relative, using his psychotic family member as a guinea pig?), I'm thinking the tattoos came after his arrest.
Also in the newscast back in chapter 2, Roberts was referred to as just Bill Roberts, and not Dr. William (or Bill) Roberts. So here's my guess, ol' Dr. Ink was cooking something nasty in his lab and got caught doing it. Ethics violations and police inquiries follow and pretty soon Dr. Ink is sitting in a jail cell slowly loosing his connection to reality. He rigs himself up a nice prison tattoo gun and start covering himself in signs and symbols related to his research (thinking back to the chapter 27 artwork). The victims' families that were mentioned in chapter 2, were the families of Dr. Ink's patients who probably came to him thinking they were taking part in some sort of drug trial and ended up as guinea pigs.

again, this is good stuff.

but where does the "Paranoid Schizophrenic" come in to play with Ink?
was he a mad scientist? or did he develop this craziness from doing his 9-5 at Raydon?

Obviously Robbins is far superior to Victor in every way. He's funnier, a better shot, more handsome than Victor and has killed multiple little ones with the mini gun. That said, I think it was hinted that Victor screwed something up during the four month time jump. In all, Robbins has never screwed up and is much more reliable *puffs chest out proudly*

About the crows, there would have been a lot more of them in this episode, but SCBubba showed me his mad skills at killing them. I needed to exceed daily hunting limits to chow down from calling the FO bottle Formic Acid. I guess 7odd and I gotta get to work on the Were Alive Fanfic. So, do we put the MyrmiZoms in Greece or over in Hawaii where the really nasty ones are, lol!

Loved the episode, KC! Is it next next Mnday, yet?

Come on, Victor has the girl, the looks and the talent. Ha, behind mini-gun even Hope can kill a little one. But has Robbins look one straight in the eye and then stop it with a syringe. We talk about Chuck Norris stuff here.

Well guys, I'm done with the theorizing. All I'll say is June 9,2011.

As leader of the Lizzy Fabre fan club, I would like to say that she, although pregnant, would have been able to handle things without spilling a drop of any chemicals. #justsaying.

awesome episode...

one of the first links i pulled up for "Follistatin" is for Follistatin Gene Therapy... that is being researched at my wife's workplace!!! no!!!

anyway...
so William Isaac Roberts = Bill Roberts = Ink
Ink has tatoos that cover him from head to toe. how many Pharmacutical companies do you know hire people with that many exposed tatoos? the broken down door with Police tape suggests that his office was a crime scene (of a killing? his capture?) or just a wardened off area for the Police to conduct futher investigations.

my conclusion: Bill Roberts was a researcher/technician for Raydon Labs before he went on his KILLING SPREE (Halo reference). i think his connection to the zombies is only of their evolution/enhancements/new breeds. plus that whole "leader of the pack" thing he's got going on... ugh.

if "the smarter you are in life, the smarter you are in death" holds true, then possibly your memories are intact, given you're smart/crazy enough--thus Ink's ability to use his former research to enhance his Zombie Army.

meh?

Looks like you've gotten someone's attention.

I've always thought it was the fire from the arena or maybe even the war with the Mallers, but hey, with new info.....

Exactly.
