Chapter 42-3 Chasing Ghosts

[Gooer]

Carl had the right idea about leaving early...

[Sin Angel]

Every episode is worth listening to.

I know I just meant it made me even more excited.

Kc, you did not lie. You said this one was gonna be intense and it was!

So the jail was the behemoth testing facility. And it does look like Ink was doing some major trial and error experimentation and we've ended up with behemoths of all shapes and sizes.
One thing that really stuck out for me was the idea that Ink was having the behemoths fight it out to weed out the weakest links. Makes me wonder if that isn't what was going on at the Arena. Ink keeps his pets starving and then throws a human out in the middle of them so they fight over it and the stronger specimen wins.

As for Ink himself, this guy just keeps getting creepier all the time. Why does seem to randomly let people go? I get letting CJ go, she was dug in and would have been to much trouble to get to. But why let Duncan go and now Puck? Is he playing mind games? Leave someone alive to tell the story?

I think we can all agree that Datu needs to sit down and write up instructions on how to make more Mata guns. That wonderful thing killed 4 Behemoths in this episode.

He himself does not need to make them, he just needs to finish the well because that still is important...but others can put it together off of instructions.

This was definitely the closest episode yet to "Aliens." What an atmosphere!

Exactly my thoughts on the live-action-listening ...

Bret Newton: AWESOME! You pushed the limits at voice-acting Puck, and that was a hell of a job you did there. Awesome!

I have started to adore Ink more and more. Such a crazy super-villain ...

Best wishes!
Liam

Hello!

Thank you so so much for the flattering comments. Being on We're Alive has been such an honor because I was a huge fan before becoming Robbins. Seeing that you have enjoyed my performance is so rewarding for me!! This episode was incredibly emotional and tons of fun to record! I'm going to post a few pictures I've been saving on twitter (@tonyrey) I'll be back on the forums later today as well to chat about this crazy episode. Thanks everyone!

Noooo, Muldoon was the first one down..... *cries*

Man, Robbins sure was devoted to getting Muldoon out.... they're like brothers....

Okay, just to get this all out so I can add to the list. My google-fu is not strong today but so far, I've found the following possible meanings:

1. A three-lines rainbow with a five-lined fan beneath it
- Can't find this one yet. Q_Q

2. A fish on fire
- some mention in dream interpretations about this one but nothing concrete.

3. Snake
- Fertility
- Guardianship
- Poison and medicine
- Vengefulness and vindicitiveness
*RedShirt discussed this one already in his original thread (http://www.zombiepodcast.com/forum/s...of-his-tattoos)

4. Bird foot
- A set of symbols used to show relationships in a regional database management system
- the underworld

5. Cross with a triangle
- Christianity

6. Egyptian eye
- protection
- royal power
- good health
- protection in the afterlife
- wards off evil

I have zero clue what those chemicals are mentioned on the Behemoth doors so I'll leave that for those smarter than I to decode.

Edited to Add:

I did find a few things on the meanings of fish and fire to add to the list.

Fish:
• Eternity
• Creativity
• Femininity
• Good Luck
• Happiness
• Knowledge
• Transformation

I'm guessing eternity and transformation might be the two most relevant on that list.

For fire, I found that the Alchemical symbol is a triangle. If you combine that with the cross, it has some interesting symbolism. Also, Fire is said to symbolize energy which just makes sense. Energy and transformation would be relevant in this instance, imo.

Interesting how Muldoon & Robbins called each other Greg & Tony when shit got really bad... nice touch.

Now excuse me while I go cry into my pillow for awhile...

Is it possible ink is keeping the Behemoths hungry on purpose? They will do his bidding, and be more vicious when he attacks.

And Megace, one of the drugs they found at Raydon, is (as far as I remember) used to increase a canser patient's appetite...
Zombies have canser... Zombies are starving... Zombie daddy has funny drugs that make you hungry...
Doesn't explain why they go SMASH on everything...
Something I just thought of. It's kinda ironic that both Muldoon and Robbins die because of a wall. Carl is just hammered into the floor. Even in his last few second he's not really part of the Group. Poor guy!
