The Walking Dead Season 5

[ChrisL]

She doesn't even have any marks on her. Believe ME, I've seen abused women before. They don't look or behave like this Jesse person does. They don't go trying to "entice" other men because they are too frightened. They are withdrawn. The usually look like hell, not just because they have signs of being beaten but because they look tired and degraded. How do we know he doesn't just "emotionally" abuse her? We don't.

It would be easy enough for her to get away from him. It's a small town where everyone knows one another. She could leave and stay with someone else, but she stays.

All this tells us is that the show's writers don't know jack crap about abused women. They also needed Jessie to be attractive enough that Rick would actually be interested in her, so they couldn't make her "realistic."

However, within the context of the show's crappy writing, we are clearly supposed to believe that Jessie's situation is serious, and the only reason she hasn't left is because she's afraid, or has some kind of stockholm syndrome.

As the kid said, his mom has him lock himself in his closet whenever his father gets drunk, and he's found his mother lying on the floor unconscious afterwards.

What if he hits her hard enough to kill her, and she comes back as a Walker?

She doesn't have any marks on her. The bottom line here is, Rick doesn't know her or her husband. He doesn't know anything about their relationship. All he has is suspicions.

Again, he, and we, know enough.

There is abuse going on, and it is supposed to be serious. The show's writers apparently either just don't know jack crap about domestic abuse, or aren't interested in portraying it realistically.

Like I told you earlier, most often these women will forgive their husbands and then HATE the man who involves himself in her relationship. He then becomes the "enemy." He was wrong for what he did. He followed her and tried to "push" her into something that she is obviously not ready to do yet.

Frankly, her "feelings" are irrelevant.

The fact of the matter is that Pete is a liability and a danger to the community as a whole in his present state. He needs to be dealt with as such.

Jessie can be pissed if she wants. Something needs to be done.

What he did would have been ILLEGAL in the real world. He acted like an idiot, IMO. IF anything, he should have talked to Deanna first and gotten the story.

He did.

Deanna's story was "yeah, he hits her, but we need a surgeon."

Well, yeah. He did. Lol

Trying to prevent domestic violence, and set the town drunk straight, however, wasn't what he did wrong.

What he did wrong was turn it into a personal, rather than professional, "white knight" crusade to have sex with a pretty blonde girl, and enforce his crazy new philosophy. He should have done things differently.

 

[High_Gravity]

I would say Pete needs to be sober at least during the day if hes the town doctor, what if someone gets hurt and he needs to go into surgery? smh. Him just walking around drinking all the time doesn't look good as Doctor.

I would have pretended to befriend Pete, lower his guard and know more before I went into action.

Personally, I would've tried to get Deanna to change her mind, and try to gather more evidence. I also would've pitched her a better plan than "Well, we should kill him, obviously... Hurr, hurr."

She seems like the "touchy-feely" type. Maybe some testimony from the kid would have done the trick.

After her son Aiden died and what Father Gabriel said she seemed cold to the Ricks group, also she didn't do a thing to Nicholas for causing the death of Noah. She seems like a person of non action, like Dawn the cop from Atlanta.

 

[Gracie]

Francine I think her name was. She better tell someone..Deanna, Reg, the others..EXACTLY what that coward wanted to do. LEAVE her. And those who let Adrian die that way instead of putting a bullet in his head so he wouldn't feel it. Couldn't do Noah though..no way to do it with that thick glass and having to hold the door. And whatsherface...Glens wife...is she going to tell the group what Gabriel The ***** said about them?

Instead of putting rick out..I think ricks group should put the alexandrians out. Let them live out there for awhile and if they survive, THEN they can come back. Quid pro quo. First one out the door? Deanna and her clueless husband that lied about building that wall in 4 weeks "with help", then the cowards, followed by a wounded-so-he-can't-run Gabriel, and a twin wounded Pete but with his hands so he can't do surgery. Let them get a dose of whats out there.

Gracie if they did that all the Alexandrians would die lol

That's pretty much my point, lol.

Yep. Pretty much a worthless leader with worthless followers. Time for Deanna and crew to mosey on but thanks for the fort! lol

I agree, Alexandria would be better off in the hands of Ricks group.

They both make senses. First, he is a surgeon, so he is one of the most necessary people in the Alexandria. Second, is there really not a middle ground? Please, they could have separated them without all the hysteria. Third, only in TV would he have gone in alone. He should have gone in when Andrea, her husband, Abraham, Daryl, Glenn, Aaron and some back up! The situation would have gone better.

 

[GHook93]

Season Finale Prediction:
(1) Rick is about to get exiled, but there will be a discussion.
(2) The group that Daryl and Aaron found are the infamous Wolves group.
(3) The Wolves follow Daryl and Aaron back to Alexandria.
(4) The Wolves demand Alexandrian abandon the community and give it to the Wolves and no one will get hurt.
(5) The weak Alexandrians don't know what to do and turn to Rick.
(6) The Grims crew defeats the onslaught. Tara dies along with some other Alexandrians.
(7) Andrea realize that Rick is better equipped for their security and places security responsibilities in his hands.
(8) Morgan appears at the end of the episode saying they are all in danger and have to leave! Season ends.

 

[High_Gravity]

I'm thinking Morgan comes in and saves their asses at the last minute lol

 

[Gracie]

Andrea? Or are you meaning Deanna?

 

[High_Gravity]

I have a feeling the guns Carol took will be huge, Daryl will regret not taking the gun Carol offered, and that Michonne will be taking that sword off the wall.

 

[Gracie]

Oy. And we have 5 more days to wait!!! ARGGGG

 

[High_Gravity]

The gun Nicholas stole from Rick will also come back in a big way.

 

[GHook93]

Nope, Morgan will make an appearance after the fighting, establish the cruel cliff-hanger (come on Walkind Dead, you have 15 million viewers do you really need to torture us with a cliff-hanger and a long hiatus?) and set up for the storyline next season!

Could be, with the build up we've had with Morgan I was hoping to see more than just a cameo you know.
