Is Lizzy pregnant or infected?

[Dameon1213]

She could very well be pregnant from Saul, enough time has passed for the symptom of "morning sickness" to show itself. If she was infected, i think KC would have defiantly written something about that, i don't think Saul and Lizzie were getting it on while he was bed ridden, it wouldn't make any sense. i know that is the last thing i think about when i am sick like he was, and i think i have libido close to Saul's. XD all joking aside, Liz is pregnant

also, throwing up is not a sign of infection, keep in mind, tommy never threw up.

the argument that a 9mm round wouldn't get stuck in Saul unless it had gone through Tommy first is actually incorrect. even though a 9mm is a very high penetration/low damage round. there are a series of overlapping bones in a human shoulder that would be very difficult for any handgun round to penetrate. in order for that round to penetrate a shoulder it would have to go through the front of the shoulder joint, the upper arm shoulder ball joint, and the rear shoulder blade, not to mention a large number of connective tissues and flesh. so while the bullet may have gone through tommy first, it wouldn't have to because it still would be unlikely for the bullet to penetrate the shoulder.

I would think she is preggy from her previous BF... I mean, how long has it been since the beginning in Episode 1?

It has been quite a while... you would have been able to tell way before now. On the first chapter it was mentioned that it started on May 8th, and in Chapter 25 part 2, someone said it was August at the moment. It would have to be from Saul.

I noticed a small detail when I listened to chapter 20-3 at around the 7:07 mark. Tar described her eyes as being green which is quite odd because if you listen to chapter 2-2 at around the 8:32, you notice that Micheal describes her eyes as being blue. So it seems that there is something wrong here because her eyes are being described as two totally different colors. Also green is what Micheal described the tattooed zombie's eyes to be. Also maybe her vomiting is happening not because she is pregnant, but because she is infected. The vomiting is just a sign of her starting to turn. The pregnancy theory might just be a red harring.

Why not both pregnant and infected? What if this character, this "smart zombie" if you will, is the reason for Lizzy's condition? It would, after all, add quite a twist in the story-line not to mention causing quite an issue for Saul and the rest of the Tower residents...

Just thought this up.

There is a big emphasis on Lizzy having green eyes, and I noticed that in Chapter 10 (I think) where the tattoo'd zombie is standing in the hallway, they mention his 'Green eyes'.

Possible that the same green eyes have been passed down genetically to Lizzy! Meaning that she is the daughter of the Green eyed Tattoo Zombie!

Also, Kc mentioned in an interview that there is a specific "reason" as to why we are following the story of this group of survivors. I think its obvious that this group is important because this group holds the key to saving mankind.

It also seems that Saul is immune to being infected and becoming a Zombie. For example, it almost always takes a tiny amount of blood contamination - even through a scratch - to become infected. Saul was shot and covered in blood (his own and zombie blood), and still did not become a zombie.

I think that if Saul (immune) has got Lizzy (daughter of tattoo zombie) pregnant, then an immune half breed zombie/immune human/saviour woul dbe born! - (like Jesus in a way!)

Many stories in movies etc have some sort of reference to a "saviour" - even the Matrix had this sort of way about it with Neo being a 'Jesus like' character.

Anywhoo, thats my two cents.


Any feedback is appreciated.

very good theory, deekay. I merged that thought here since you actually combined the two thoughts pretty nicely.

The thing that stood out to me was the way Scratch's voice changed when she saw Lizzie was sick. I wondered if it meant something to her--like it's happened to other people. She sort of gives her a little preferential treatment in response. Pregnancy is one idea, some sort of response to Ground Zero is another. She didn't talk about having a fever, or feeling sick--just that she couldn't stop vomiting.

My faith in newbies and mankind has been restored. That was the first original theory we've had in 6 months. LOL. Well, except for the Saul immune thing. We've fought over that bit like two fat dudes and the last slice of pizza. I personally believe its a bunch of whoowee and can't remember how many think that as well. Simply because Burt didn't hit what he was aiming at, he missed. Hence Saul's line about him missing. No through and through happened.
Anyway, great line of thought.
