1. Lizzie Puts The Group In Danger
Lizzie loves her walkers; she gives them names and calls them over like pets. Unfortunately, the walkers make a pit bull look like Lassie. I guess the walkers just really know how to pull at her heartstrings. And her lungs, and stomach, and spleen, and any other vital organ they can get their paws on. In short, Lizzie is clearly struggling to distinguish walkers from real, living, breathing people. So were waiting to see this put the group in danger. Sure, towards the end of Internment (S4 E05), Lizzie nearly faced some serious repercussions for her attitude; the walker she treated like a dog nearly bit her hand off. However, I dont think weve seen the end of Lizzies shenanigans. Shes determined to prove the walkers are just like ordinary people. And unfortunately for the group, not the viewers I think shes going to go too far to prove this point. As a result, I think Lizzie is going to take the place of Ben from the graphic novels. Ben and his twin brother Billy lose their parents to the zombie apocalypse. As a result, Ben is left with a disturbed and unsettling mind. In the novels, he kills his twin brother, excited to see him come back as a walker. He tells the group not to worry, explaining that he didnt injure Billys brain. Clearly, only Bens brain is injured. If Lizzies attitude persists, then she may be putting a knife in her sisters back. And Im sure her sister would offer a very toothy kiss to show her appreciation. These are the things Im expecting to see, and Im sure many of you are waiting right alongside me. Of course, not all of them are going to unravel in the manner Ive prescribed. Ive examined these moments through the lifeline of the graphic novels, but the television series is a separate monster altogether. Im sure the writers have their own adrenaline to inject into the story as it moves along. Either way, The Walking Dead arent ready to drop; theyve got a busy season ahead of them. But what do you think? What are you waiting to see? What are you predicting will happen? Let me know in the comments below!
