    First.. great episode. New crush on Scratch. So when do we get to learn her real name. Could it possible that Durai is the "older cousin"? I don't know, just a thought.

    Scratch is all hell-bent on her oath to kill Pegs, but Pegs is now in Boulder. How pissed is Scratch going to be when she learns that little tid bit of information? Will Scratch make her way to boulder to put a bullet in Pegs? That's a long trek from Cali to Colorado.

    I'm feeling sorry for Burt right now cause I am thinking that the old man is in for a serious ass-whooping. I don't think he will break though, I think he will revert to his USMC training and give name and SSn and call it a day. Just hoping that Scratch doesn't put a bullet in him. Maybe when the Dynamic Duo make it to the Colony they will spring Burt?

    So let's say that Saul and Victor (Batman and Robin / the Dynamic Duo - LOL) go down to the Colony and get the phone and somehow find Lizzy. Is she going to go with Saul? Right now she is safe with the Mallers and I highly doubt Bricks will let anyone/anything lay a finger on her. I think Lizzy would leave if she knew for sure about Ft. Irwin, otherwise I think she will tell Saul she is staying put.

    Saul and Victor are a great team. I like how they started off at odds with each other but have since come together and got each others back. Im thinking Victor has some tricks up his sleave, something a lot more then an insurance salesman. Maybe he is prior SEAL/Ranger/LAPD SWAT/something and just hasn't let the cat out of the bag yet?

    Maybe CJ should put her feeling out there. Keeping it bottled up and not telling Saul she is wanting to be with him. Crazy. Saul might have decided to stick with her, maybe take her to Irwin and skip Lizzy if she would just put it out there. Prolly not though.. Saul seems pretty intent on getting her back.

That's why both the bartender and the shopkeeper wanted to see Eli's hands and thats how he found out that the elderly couple were cannibals.
    why, yes i did. did you also know that in certain cannibal cultures, they refer to their human food as long pig? if anyone offers you long pig, DON'T EAT IT!

    I believe that it has finally been "stated" that Bricks will be joining the good guys at some stage. When Scratch and Durai were talking about not getting any info out of Burt, we heard the conversation. In keeping with the supposed rules of the show, that means someone had to write about it. The only person there to hear it was Bricks. (Unless Scratch or Durai join the crew, which, at this stage, is completely impossible to believe).
    Can't wait for a zombie to charge at Victor, when they're re-escaping from the colony, only to be grabbed by Bricks and ripped in half. (I say Victor because he's my new fave, and I want him to get chummy with Bricks)

    scratching joining the crew is impossible to believe, but if we think waay back to season one. when scratch and latch were "shopping" in the dept. store, saul was not close enough to the store to ease-drop on their conversation...same could be said for the scene were they set uh,....charlie?(im pulling this from foggy memory right now) up for the stealing of the tanker by our tower crew...so its not an alltogether wild idea. IF we follow the journal idea...scratch is the big question mark in the equation, and continues to be

    Yes Im with you on the belief that bricks will be in some parts with our crew. It's been said before but I think that conversation may be a big hint. I'm sure there are other conversations in past episodes that the mallers had with out our main characters present and bricks may not been mentioned as being in the group but could have been there. I'd have to go back to listen to the war but I believe there was a view point from the mallers speaking in that section that could have been filled in by bricks. I'm sticking with the thought that those aren't just filler information to give extra body to the story I do believe its all put together by journals. I still as well think we're in the past and not to the present where chapter 1 started with michael looking back putting the pieces together. Also the scene with Burt bricks could have been present overhearing what was going on out side of the room. Bricks is to the mallers what victor was to the colony he's not really on a side he's just doing what he's told to survive and still trying to stand up for right and wrong by protecting lizzy like victor tried to do and did for MPK Tanya and hope too.

    Hummer

    Before I get into my take on this weeks chapter opener I want to say a few things to KC and the crew as well. I know from time to time your fans and audience get rather impatient and call episodes "meatless" or slow, or dull but I honestly don't think any one who says that is trying to insult the work and efforts put into the production. Coming from a personal view of someone on the outside, looking in (a fan), KC you might not realize how much some of us obsess over the production. During those long drawn out months where you build and build plot we endure an intense struggle waiting for the plot to suddenly unravel and it can be excruciating especially when so many of us spend so much time on the forums solving the mysteries before you reveal them. So when the story does unravel and it's exactly what we figured it would be (such as the Kalani spy component) it can be rather anti-climatic, but that's no fault of yours. It just goes to show how deep the story and the characters go. Which is something I don't think many of us are familiar with. I will also state from a personal perspective that the seemingly long drawn out episodes of plot development actually aren't that long at all when you can listen to the episodes back to back to back. It's just the once a week, then two weeks off for the next chapter waiting times that make them seem dull. Basically all I'm saying is that you are all doing a fantastic job, and don't mind us We're Alive Junkies, we're just addicted and you can never trust a junkie's opinion on how they feel about their addiction. Please continue to do the wonderfully awesome work that you've been doing! Maybe I'm just speaking for myself here, but I think you know what is best for us and I trust your decisions. Also, you give this all away for free. Amazing! I'm honestly touched at your generosity.

    So here is what I took from the Episode.

    There is certainly some conflict between Durai and Scratch. What was surprising to me is that Durai seems to respect Scratch a little more than I figured he might. It almost seems like Scratch might even have as much power as Durai does, at least when following "the rules" (the revenge rules in this case).

    No surprise that Scratch has some horrifically scarring (no pun intended) emotional moments in her life which has led her on this psychopathic journey. To all of those out there that say "so what, she's still a horrible person", look up some of Gabor Mate's research on human behavior and development. I'll sum it up for you though, the human body itself is a living organism, if it's functioning correctly it's primary goal is to defend itself. What has been learned recently through Science is just how far the body will go to achieve this. It's now understood that during your childhood and up until you are an adult a humans genetics are almost like an open book. In other words your genes take in environmental stimulus. If your genes are receiving information that the world is harsh, unfriendly and scarce then your genetics bond in a way that will allow you to survive in such a hostile world. Let's just take a guess at how Scratches genes have formed and what kind of behavior she will be prone to acting out. It's not that I'm excusing criminal behaviour, but rather I understand that it's a not a moral conflict. It's learned. You don't want to punish bad behaviour, you want to rehabilitate it. And every elementary school teacher knows this, and so does the Dog Whisperer. Ok, so that's that.

    With the above said, I'm still not convinced that Scratch has Lizzies best intentions at heart. I think she still might be wanting this child to survive for some other reason. Perhaps Scratch knows something or other about Saul's immunity. She is at the colony and she might somehow know about Tanya's bite and could put the two together? Scratch does make some kind of strange gesture when she is looking at the Ultrasound picture which to me sounded like some kind of foreshadowing that this baby is gonna come out half Zombie like or something. Only time will tell and I'm soooo excited to see how this plays out.

    On Glenn fixing the sat phone, this is like one of those things I mentioned at the beginning of this post. We knew it was gonna happen. We even figured Glenn was going to mention about how he tried to say something but was interrupted. This is what happens when you are a We're Alive junky. But awesome none-the-less, I hope they fix it and call up Michael and then Michael and his knew side kick can come down and kick some ass! Oh yea, seeing Riley back in action would be pretty sweet too.

    Also, we're only 5 chapters away from Season 3 ending! Wow!

    So yeah, that just happened. We now have an almost sure trip to the colony for Victor and Saul, if not the others as well. We're more confused about how we feel about Scratch now than we were when Jenna McCombie was on We're Not Dead, which that were some confusing feelings enough. Top that all off with Veronica Belmont. And guess what people? This is only part one. Stay tuned to part two where a love triangle is revealed, someone dies, and Michael J. Fox reprises his role as Alex P. Keaton. All that and more on part two of Family Ties: Post Apocalypse edition.

    Well, it was nice knowing your voice Otto, but I fear KC is going to have to terminate Victor now.
