Chapter 20 Part 3 Discussion

[Re1ndeer]

I will put my 2 cents in here about this episode.

I think it was cool how as Burt and Saul learned what happened to Lizzy, we learned what happened. That was a nice way to tell the story. It surprised me though when Scratch started to act so nice to Lizzy.

I like how the guys didn't let Saul do crazy things without a fight this time. They actually tried to reason with him.

Can't wait for the next part.

I know you are


I'll beieve it after the next round of harsh Angel criticism.... You'll come runnin' back to defend him.

Nah.. I'll get my cheer leader pom poms out and root Ra1th on..

Nik, Do you think Scratch is evil?

I am still deathly afraid for Lizzy. Scratch has a poor track record with interpersonal relationships and communication. ie.. she is an evil cow

Blondie is in deep kim chee..

Scratch is a victim of her circumstance. She looks out for herself and everyone else be damned. I think her adoration of latch is truly admirable, but she has a lot of issues with her rage which colors how she reacts to everything. She's a very strong person who not only has survived in this hell, she's seemingly thriving (for lack of a better term). she is a very loyal person, and has gained the respect of the mallers even though she's done it through fear and intimidation.

So no, I don't think she's Truly evil. Is she capable of heinous acts? Absolutely. But unlike Gatkeeper who I believe to be the most evil "living" character we've met, Scratch does have redeeming values.

Point to you Sir Voodoo.. I am converted!! As long as she doesn't hurt Blondie..

Gatekeeper is very very scary

I just had a terrible thought.. Lizzie's vomiting if its not pregnancy. Could she be getting sick from what ever made the zombies?

[shananala8]

Here's a point that I don't believe was mentioned at any point in any of our Chapter 20 discussions: The Mallers apparently have integrated themselves with some semblance of a female population (aside from Scratch of course). Kc said the prison wasn't co-ed earlier in this thread, but Tardust and Bricks had to check a list against Lizzy's ID to see if she was one of the runaways. Just pointing that out. Continue!

On this topic, we can postulate that the male prisoners are not freely raping any females who may have joined their ranks. Tardust's comments on how long it's been and all that would indicate that he hasn't scored in a while.

why would it be that? sauls not sick with zombie syndrome, and kc wouldnt have her get infected off scenes so i dont see reason to wrry

...wow voodoo says one thing and your sold dont mind me over in the corner yapping

I think that Lizzy is pregnant; however, I think that the father is her ex-now-deceased-boyfriend. how much time have we covered in the narrative so far? at least a couple months, and Lizzy was a late, no pun intended, arrival.
