I wonder who Saul's Dad was?

I was wondering about that too. He's never mentioned. Maybe he's like Anakin Skywalker and the Haze is his father..

I'm curious to know how they taste.

ALCOHOL!

There are a number of instances where we suspect that someone MAY become infected. To add to the mystery, we are denied information to conclude that person X was absolutely exposed. In most, not all, of those instances alcohol was involved.

1) Riley and Angel in the stack of bodies at the arena. They doused themselves with wine prior to that scene.
2) Saul getting shot by Burt, possibly through Tommy. Saul was the drunkest dude at the party.
3) Tanya dragged by Randy. No drinking involved. She is the outlier. This doesn't disprove the hypothesis but highlights that there could be unique circumstances concerning her that is not readily known or understood.
4) Riley on the farm. She was tore-up from the floor-up drunk. While Kelly and Michael searched for her Kelly made a number of comments that Riley was not alone.
a) The tracks Kelly and Michael follow diverge into two tracks.
b) Kelly says, "The tracks might not be hers."
c) Riley is STILL at the Weed.

Wait, Alcohol sound about right as defense...... They are distract when alcohol is the system since alcohol also leave the body when you sweating. So they are not able to track you since you don't have any scent in essence. Immunity hmmm...

Wow... Same name, but the real tower is named something different. I wonder if anyone will find it.

Is The Tower based on SB Tower on Spring st?

One addition to this that I think someone brought up before, Victor douses himself in cologne and also threw cologne bottles on the ground to mask his trail in chapter 18. Cologne has alcohol in it.

It's the PIMP Zombie.

Turtius,

The SB Tower on Spring Street is on my short-list of guesses for the location of CJ's "Other Tower". But if you look up and down that area around the intersection of S. Spring and W. Sixth Streets there are a number of buildings that could fit the bill. Older tower buildings with grand, multi-story lobbies and outside fire escapes aren't that common in LA, but the ones there are all seem to be in that one neighborhood.

The one thing that makes me wonder about the SB Tower is that it doesn't have a multi-story parking garage next to it.

Guys,

Just replayed this part's podcast and while thumbing through some of the others threads, I came across this from Cabbage Patch...

"I'd like to propose three options, that I don't think are mutually exclusive.

1. A lone surviving correctional officer from Eastern Bay. He could have been gathering intel on the Mallers all this time, with a goal of recapturing the inmates, or rescuing some of the Maller's slaves.

2. A scout or recon unit from somewhere outside of Los Angeles. This could be military from some place like Fort Irwin, or from Navy ships that were at sea when the apocalypse occurred. Or maybe from a South American country where the zombies never struck.

3. A new survivor group I would call "The Boozers". This would consist of heavy drinkers, skid row alcoholics, frat boys, 1960s era Mad Men, etc., who discovered that the zombies ignore them as long as they're properly soused. They form a wandering band, travelling from liquor store, to bar, to supermarket, scavenging for food and booze. They would have answers to every single question regarding the outbreak, but would be too far gone to explain any of it coherently. "

He posted this in Jun 2011 in the "If you could add one new character?" thread. DUDE, you've been predicting theories on CJ and Ft Irwin since like Chapter 23. If I hear anything about a group of Riley type people, I'm throwing in the towel.
