Chapter 40-1 Monsters

[YetAnotherBloodyCheek]

BTW, does anyone have a clue why the episode is called "monsters" and not just "monster"? Just because of the omnium-gatherum (yes, that is my new vocabulary of the day!) of Ink's backstory and what happens in parallel at ground zero?

Little something I thought of for those still questioning the police tape. With what we learned in this episode as well as the TiVo stuff from chapt 2, I could see the police tape still being there due to his psychiatric condition. If he is being tried for murder and he is pleading insanity, would there not be an investigation into his offices for any signs of "self medicating"/creating his own illness/symtoms? Could be one reason for the tape to be there.

Perhaps it has to do with the fact that,...(don't tell Kc I told you!), that these are just "monsters" roaming around in Michael's head. Yes ladies and gents, it seems Michael took another good wiff of his experimental mixtures and has taken a bad "trip" to la-la land. When he wakes up, IF he wakes up, we all go bye-bye.

No Kc. That's an old script. I changed that. She says, "almost a year ago."

Crap. Yes it was. I only had version 4 at work, forgot that line changed.

What I learned today....
Carl is CJ's spy and a pretty bad one at that
Bill Roberts is Ink
I am done with theories....I will just allow KC to take me along for the ride....
Well except for Skittles being one of the mastermind, puppeteer, dr jeckle mr Hydes.... I now think he is part of a clan though... I am still sticking with that.....

[Verse]

OK... I thick KC is just screwing with us. My Theroy of Father/Son is truth. It will be the major twist at the end!

All seriousness though....

I am glad that the Group are connecting the Dots now. Also that we found out a few things. Like that Ink was turned. Pretty sure he is not patient Zero anymore. Just a lucky threat. Also like that they explained the Tat's. The Little One (#7) attacking the normal is interestintg as well. My gut (which hasn't always been right... see the Father/Son idea that flopped) says that TOWTM is killing off the ones that are not with him. Thinning the Herd. We don't know how long Ground Zero has been clean. Could be that the Zombies picked them off as food stuff if the Air cleared out right after Saul and Victor checked it out.

Regardless what they found makes sense. As much as I complained how "I just can't see XYZ" this episode put a lot together. Answered a decent amount of questions as well. Explained how Ink had Tats and worked. Explained the Police Tape being up so long. Put to rest the multiple Zombie Leader, Father/Son, are Pin Strip and Ink the same, issues. I am very happy with what we got.

As for the Title... I think Monsters reflects the multiple people/issues. Ink killed his Wife, Wife's Lover, and Wife's Lover's Family. Cant get much more monster than that. Ink is the big bad and known. Makes him a Monster now in another sense. #7 is killed other Zombies.. Another Monster. Willing to bet we here from CJ and see how she is after these 4 months. Betting she is kinda a Monster (Although in a better way).

Monsters ...
a) The Tinks
b) Ink
c) Inklings

Is it only me, or is there a pattern?

Best wishes!

So, Bill Roberts was transferred from somewhere to the Courthouse. Seem obvious to me that he was coming from Cain's General hospital. What was the plaque? I bring relief to troubled minds

[FunkyDung]

Damn you, Grognaurd. Now I'm listening for crows. I assume you heard it in this episode, too.

Anybody else think a lot of the dialog was written specifically to tease the theorists among us?
