Indifference

I'm furious with the outcome of this episode.

Plot In A Paragraph: Daryl, Tyreese, Michonne, and Bob continue to the veterinary college on foot in search of medicine. Rick and Carol go on a run to a nearby town where they find two uninfected stragglers, and Carol tries to convince Rick of her motives for her actions.

I really liked the scene with Lizzie (Brighton Sharbino) and Carol (Melissa McBride) where Lizzie explains she understands more will die and "We all change," Carol dispenses some more tough love to the girl, Lizzie slips and calls Carol "mom." Carol tells the girl not to call her that. (So my earlier theory of her taking to her as a replacement daughter for Sophia was wrong) I actually thought Daryl (Norman Reedus) was going to murder Bob in cold blood, when he realised what Bob had done.

I'm very unhappy with what Rick (Andrew Lincoln) did to Carol (who was one of my favourites) and really hope that is not the last we see of her. Maybe we will continue to see her on her own, or she will come back and save the day, when the gang are in trouble?? Or maybe we will never know!! I know Daryl won't be happy, and I'm with him. But hope this does not alter his closeness with Rick.

Rick and Carol set out on a supply run, leading to a series of events that challenge their relationship and their moral compasses. Carol's decision to k*ll two sick survivors to prevent the spread of the virus shocks Rick and the audience, highlighting the lengths people will go to survive. The episode ends with Rick banishing Carol from the group, further fracturing their already fragile community. The episode also explores themes of guilt and redemption, as both Rick and Carol grapple with the consequences of their actions.

The title of the episode refers to how Carol's indifference towards survivors dying and the general situation they are all in, as seen when Ana is being eaten and later commented on how "It was a nice watch" when Sam failed to show up to accompany them to the prison, thus losing Rick's watch that he had on. The episode is seen as a transitional stage for the development of Carol, having become cold and making difficult decisions to survive, ultimately causing Rick to feel unsafe and thus, he exiles her. It also distinguishes the differences between Rick and Carol: Rick stepping down from leadership to take on farming and living a peaceful life, while Carol steps up to make the decisions others are afraid of making.

Daryl, Michone, Tyreese and Bob go to the university to get medical supplies for the survivors. Tyreese is furious and Bob confesses to Daryl that he is alcoholic. Meanwhile Rick and Carol travel by car to get supplies for the group since most of the food was lost in the infected block. They reach a suburb and find a young couple while searching the houses for food. When they get the supplies, they find the girl dead and her boyfriend missing. Rick surprisingly expels Carol from the group and she drives another car without destiny.

"Indifference" is a forgettable episode with a weird decision. The unbalanced Rick decides alone to expel Carol from the group, without sharing opinions. I believe it is time to Rick die in the show since this character is exhausted and now he has become non-charismatic. I am looking forward to see Daryl'reaction. The title of this show is perfect since, in accordance with the dictionary, indifference means: 1. lack of interest or concern. 2. unimportance; little or no concern. 3. the quality or condition of being indifferent. 4. mediocrity.

Once again Fox do Brasil shows no respect to their viewers. Again they included a complete video clip of Glee in the intermission of The Walking Dead. The moronic programmer of this channel has the brain of a walker, breaking the tension of the episode with the gay Glee. Shame on you, Fox do Brasil ! My vote is six.

Title (Brazil): "Indifference"

Note: On 14 April 2016, I saw this show again.

It was obvious the intention of the show creators to get rid of Carol (Melissa McBride), but turning her into killer, after she kills Karen and David, I think was a bad move because this is not something that her character would do. Initially I thought that Carl had killed Karen and David and Carol was lying to Rick to protect him.

I think this was unjust toward Carol because it's leaving negative feelings to her in the fans of the show, and overall she was positive character, compassionate and dedicated to the group.

The other disappointment so far is a Michonne. When in the third season we see her is wild, stubborn, fearless person now she seems…. lost. I hope this will change in the next episodes.

Overall this episode was dull and boring in comparison with episodes in third season where each one had intense and dynamic atmosphere and made your adrenalin rush all of the time you watch.

Pretty much the most lackluster episode thus far. I think we all get the point. Ish is rough. Moral dilemmas. Ethical dilemmas. More dilemmas. Some dilemmas pose a dilemma. People die. Other people cry. Who is gonna save who, who will get left behind, who won't, who will care about that, who will not, how will this affect the others. How long will it take before they start realizing the world is now mainly inhabited by American politici.. I mean; the undead? What's the point in keep pointing out the already obvious point? Personally I started this show thinking 'AWESOOOOME!', now I'm thinking 'Yeah yeah, been there done that, freshen this story up please'. Let's (literally) see what happens. If anything..
