Were the two guys that set the trap for Daryl and the other guy, the same two guys Morgan came across?

I believe so.

I'm interested in seeing the relationship between "All life is precious" Morgan and "Kill or be killed" Rick. So much has changed since Atlanta and since their last meeting when Morgan had lost it.

They were.

Does anyone have the full transcript of the conversation between Morgan and the lone "Wolf"

I missed it and only remember Morgan saying "All things returned"?

But agree with everyone else, this was a great episode. Definitely one of those edge of your seat episodes. Just the storyline between Glenn and the Coward made me go from OH CRAP THEY'RE KILLING GLENN!! to oh he's still alive and going to beat the crap out of the Coward, to OH MAN THEY'RE REALLY GOING TO KILL GLENN!! to Yes he made it! Now kill the Coward!!! to nothing can break Glenn from being the all around good guy.

If anyone watched the after credits

What was the significance of Michonne looking at her sword then deciding to always keep it with her?

Such a downer to the end of the season. Could just feel the disappointment from Morgan after his all life is precious stuff.

Great season finale. It seemed like every character moved forward in this one.

Those wolves gotta die. Sinister bastards, just a tick below Terminus. That trough scene still haunts me man.

She put the sword up because she said they didn't need it there. That same sword if what killed Reg. She now sees it's not as safe as they thought and I am guessing if she had the sword on her, Regg wouldn't be dead.

Yea that entire sword on the 'mantle or not' was just a metaphor of sorts.

She's basically showing that she's more in line with Rick's thinking. This dream life they're trying to obtain in this town, there is no letting their guard down ever. No matter how safe they seem to feel.

I agree with the sentiments earlier about Glenn. I was thinking 'damn he's dead' then he made it, then 'damn he's dead' again lol. Happy to see him survive the episode.

I thought it was a great episode. But rest assured, people are going to die eventually.

Re: The Walking Dead (Season 5)

I'm curious on where this is going to lead, because there are some big things that are set to happen based upon the loosely followed narrative of the comic, yet, they have interchanged characters that didn't exist in the comics in past scenarios.

Going to be interesting to see what direction they go.

If I were to want to pick up reading the graphic novels, which volume would I start with considering I've watched up to last nights episode. Which volume will next season start at?

My guess is that the beginning of the season may start with a bang, then some acceptance of what's happened so some slower episodes in the beginning of the middle, then ramp up hard the second half of the season. Considering how they break up the season into halves, that seems likely. I bet the Wolves show up towards the end of the first half to setup some high intensity episodes during the second half.

Re: The Walking Dead (Season 5)

Interesting end to the season.

Hopefully we learn more about how Morgan has changed since being a lunatic next season.

Also, am I the only one who liked what they were teasing with the Wolves/Scavengers?

Re: The Walking Dead (Season 5)

Those last few minutes were great; I had that feeling of "I have no idea what the hell's going to happen" and loved every minute of it. Can't believe Gabriel lives to see another day, after all the **** he pulled. Dude should be made to go out on runs with the caveat of he done ****ed up, no one's going to save his ***.

Carol, my gawd! Easily the coolest character right now.

It's actually a bit sad to see Mr. Architect go. Very level headed guy who provided the necessary balance to Deanna. Would be interesting to see if Alexandria deteriorates from his death, since his knowledge (as far as we've been shown) hasn't been passed on to anyone.

Prediction for next season's early episodes: Morgan and Rick working out philosophical issues before a common foe (Wolves) makes their presence felt.

Great, great finale. Good thing Game of Thrones comes back in 2 weeks; great Sunday TV needs to be filled!

Honestly, just start from the beginning. Yes, there are a lot of similarities with the show, but there are plenty of differences too. I recommend picking up the first two compendiums. Available on Amazon.
