'Ouroboros' Episode Discussion

So after last week's episode with the island and that family, this week it seems to include the Flight 462 characters. Hopefully it's good.

As always, comment before, while, and after you watch.

  • I'm interested on seeing how Alex–cough–Charlie will relate to the rest of the Abigail crew. Is that a thing yet? Calling that group of unrelated people the "Abigail crew?"

  • Most people will go to watch GOT i think.

  • Alex? I thought her name was Charlie.

  • Are they supposed to be in the middle of the ocean? Because I swear I saw land right behind them in one scene. Also, wasn't Alex bitten?

  • Personally, I was going to wait until the season was over so I could binge watch it on HBO go. If there's one show I absolutely can't stand waiting a week in between episodes for, its GOT. Just gotta avoid spoilers for 2 1/2 months.

  • GOT is taking precedence right now.

  • Yeah. AMC probably should've swallowed their pride and moved Fear to a different time slot.

  • I liked the intro a lot. Good story setter.

  • Chris... you are definitely born again hard.

  • Can someone say divorce papers?

  • Oh God the crabs that was disgusting.

    Oh yeah, and how was there a knife in a passenger's bag on a U.S. plane?

  • I can't believe none of them grabbed the end of Alicia's long ass jacket.

  • Oh my God, Strand… that's… just… wow.

  • I guess we're never seeing them again.

  • Well flight 462 was kinda pointless

    Really explains why he's named "Strand".

    Strand

    VERB

    1.drive or leave (a boat, sailor, or sea creature) aground on a shore:

    I would assume it be okay to count what he did to Alex and Jake as stranding, yes?

    P.S. I've noticed this for a while and I might as well.

  • Whenever Madison yells Strands name I think of Rick yelling Carl like Coral.

  • I hope Alex comes back in Season 3 and kills Strand if he's not dead.

  • Did anyone watch the preview on Story Sync?

  • Not me.Why?

    Damn that was a good episode :D

    Did not expect the guy on the plane to have his spine sticking out. Nick has been cemented as my favourite character after that walker guts scene near the end. Just awesome. Alex has clearly lost her mind and it seems that they made Flight 462 completely redundant which is dumb as hell, or maybe they're gonna be found by the pirates the main group are getting away from (And did they change her name? Pretty sure it was Charlie in Flight 462).

    Also that crab zombie was cool to see.

  • Or maybe they'll get picked up by the other boat that the main group is trying to get away from.

  • it was good.7/10. i liked that now they probably gonna know that walker blood mask them from walkers. everything was else was slow. oh my god this was the second that walking has made me cringe. that spine shit was fucking nuts. Noah's death and this shit made me look away from the tv. fuck that shit was nasty..

    man, strand is fucking dick lol

  • Good episode overall, even if they did make 462 seem completely fucking useless. Nick learning about the walker blood and guts trick is great, definitely a memorable moment from the episode, but I'm still disappointed about Alex, she could have been a great addition to the show. Her and Nick (and Strand) seemed to have adapted best to this world, watching those two interact could have been interesting to watch.

  • It had dorm interesting stuff going on. Very interesting.

  • I think it's quick to jump on it being pointless, cause they could always be reappearing later.

    I thought it made for a pretty good episode incursion though.

  • It was good but still plagued by a lot of issues that plenty of reviewers pointed out.

    In general I think I'm just annoyed that we are basically just getting TWD again but with a different set of characters. Would have loved to see the daily life breakdown and people losing their shit. They can literally have this go a bunch of different ways but it is what it is.

  • Hope she comes back next episode and he is already dead

  • Awesome episode. Chris "helping" that dude was an amazing scene. Really liked Alex, I have a feeling Strand's gonna regret cutting that line.

  • Am I the only one who loves Strand more and more after each episode?!!

    I'd be lying if I said I'd bring Alex and James or whatever with me. Would've left them on the island with their raft.

  • Okay episode

    Thoughts

    • These people are all horrible, seriously other people are better off without them
    • The teens are so dumb....
    • Travis and Madison continue to argue and bitch about pointless stuff, why are they pissed about strand having a destination?
    • Why does Madison trust Daniel (who tortured a guy and more) but doesnt trust strand
    • What exactly does madison do? I mean everyone else was doing something this episode
    • Strand just seems overly cold against other people
    • Ophelia isnt a character, I mean really
  • Jeez Thrones really kicked the ass out of the viewership, didn't it?

  • It also was out on all platforms last night. While I had to wait until this morning to watch Fear

    Chris went more savage on a random guy than Negan and he's really starting to grow a pair now. For the first time since the show started I'm interested to see where his character's going now.

    Shit hit is gonna hit the fan next episode and I can't wait.

    There's no way she isn't coming back. Episode 5 synopsis says Travis runs into a familiar face she'll probably return then. And Michelle Ang is a series regular as she was listed along with the others and not in the Guest Starring.

    His character was still annoying this episode wandering off into abandoned aircraft alone. Still he was on equal ground to Nick who decided dancing on the edge of the cliff was a good idea, Alicia who thought having a lengthy hug was a better idea than getting on the boat and Daniel who wasted all his bullets attracting walkers to him.

    That said LVP has to go to Madison for sitting on her arse doing fuck all bar some bitching

  • Solid episode. I like the idea of pre-introducing characters in webisodes in order to bring them into the TV Show at a later date. I do think that we will see Alex and (maybe?) Jake again, from the writers perspective this opportunity is way to good to waste. Also, I've noticed that Michelle Ang is credited as a series regular, hinting at a possible return later on. My bet is that she's the "familiar face" referred to in the 2x05 description... but who knows. One way or another, I am pretty certain that we will see more of her in the future.
