Concern

There should be concern about copying from the AMC page. They give a summary, which appears to have been copy/pasted into here. I continued the effort, but a rewrite should be done as this is not a good long term concept. — Preceding unsigned comment added by ToninMaep (talk • contribs) 18:09, 12 November 2012‎

Text should not be copy-pasted from the AMC page and cannot form the base from which we derive our text. I've removed that text and replaced it with (hopefully) original work from The Walking Dead (season 3), which can be expanded. —Mrwojo (talk) 19:12, 12 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Carol's grave

How do we know that it's Carol's grave at the end? Is there any hint I've overseen? 78.48.160.96 (talk) 11:47, 14 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

~~I think the assumption is safe given Daryl's close relationship with Carol.~~ The flower refers back to the episode "Cherokee Rose". --Another Believer _(Talk) 15:59, 14 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Realizing now Carol's death was not certain at the end of the previous episode (I had forgotten whether or not she died in the same episode as Lori and T-Dog). Perhaps the plot section should suggest that Daryl places a flower at a grave for Carol, assuming she died after finding the article of her clothing? Unless I missed something, her death has not been confirmed. --Another Believer _(Talk) 16:08, 14 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Stones on top of the grave form a "C"; they're visible when Daryl sets down the flower. There's other indications in this episode that the characters believe she's dead (three graves, Carl lists her among the women they've lost, etc.). —Mrwojo (talk) 00:05, 15 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the feedback. I understand the grave is for Carol. But should the plot somehow indicate that the grave is for Carol, whom the other group members assume died? Are viewers certain Carol died? --Another Believer _(Talk) 00:20, 15 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, I was replying to anonymous "74". ;) Both of the reviews in the article leave Carol's actual fate as a question mark. I feel that the "Plot" section should stick with treating her as effectively dead in this episode based on what happens. The audience point-of-view could be clarified in another section, perhaps for inter-episode "Continuity" where we could mention other things like the Rose, the women Carl listed, and (in future) who's on the phone. —Mrwojo (talk) 01:21, 15 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

As we can see at the end of the following episode, Carol is alive. 78.49.137.39 (talk) 17:33, 19 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
