[7oddisdead]

Firstly, great episode.

second, TOOT!

Who would of thought they'd be having the baby at the hospital..... Generator, screaming lady, screaming baby...too much noise, i don't like where this is going....

Maybe Ink Steals the Baby..

[UndeadSweeper]

Oh crud, CJ left, groups are moving, Micheal left and Tanya is leaving and left a vm at the colony. Guess who going to sneak into the colony and get that message??

So, Michael and Vic are in, and little Henry is on his way out.

BTW, I wonder if chapter 43 underwent a title change:

Here are my candidates:

We're alive into darkness
Residential evil
In & Out

[YetAnotherBloodyCheek]

And last but not least:

SCRATCH WILL BE BACK IN CHAPTER 44.

Just to echo a few things that have already been said...

First off, great episode! I really, really liked this one. So many things seem to be clicking into place and we're getting set up for some very interesting times ahead. Loved it!

Secondly, Grognaurd and UndeadSweeper have already discussed the lurking behemoth at Cain and I really like Grognaurd's idea of the big one being Lizzy's father. If it's as Datu says and the human side of you is still aware while the zombie side is in control, having Lizzy's bulked out behemoth of a dad around during childbirth could be the best possible scenario if he becomes their own personal watchdog. That'd really be the only way to counter all that noise from the generator, wouldn't it? Plus, if he has been lurking around Cain long enough, it's possible that he has driven other Zed's out of the area.

I do like the idea of Scratch showing up post-delivery and stealing away the baby. With her oddly maternal fixation on Lizzy (the fixation is likely on the baby and Lizzy benefited just by being the delivery mechanism) it would make sense for her to come if she heard the broadcast about Cain. Not that I want Saul and Lizzy to lose their baby but it does make for an interesting twist from a story telling perspective.

[Grognaurd]

The Behemoth are an interesting wild card. They killed the three soldiers from Denver, but not Puck from Ft. Irwin. Was this threat analysis? Pretty damn smart that they killed the person with the big gun. Go outside, instead of killing Puck, it wrecks the gun truck. Again, threat-based? However, the truck was from Dunbar and might have smelled like Saul and Victor.

But, what is their purpose? They are war-machines, but paraphrasing President Roslin from Battlestar Galactica, in the pilot episode, the war is over, we lost...

Why does Ink or someone else feel the need to make these things? I also said that maybe the symbols were part of intelligence test. One cell was not broken into and one of the symbols Datu translates as don't go there. I wonder if we are given the specifics with this one on the door that remained intact.

[YetAnotherBloodyCheek]

I guess that Michael will break the fourth wall and ask: "Oh, Kc, why did you give my character this abyssmal keen sense of bad timing?"
Someone is most probably going to die next time.

Love you KC for referencing the Thomas bros guides. Sad to say they've become the old timers gps. Too bad they aren't in print anymore.

Great episode, burning question I have now is are the zombies actually zombies or mind controlled with the original people taking a back seat to their own bodies?

Could Datu hear them in his mind or with his ears?

Cain Hospital Round Two?
