The Walking Dead Season 2 E6: Secrets




If you have not seen my review for episode 5, you may do so here: The Walking Dead Season 2 E5: Chupacabra

At the beginning of the episode we find out how Hershel and his family have been feeding the walkers.  They take chickens and break their legs, then throw them in the barn.  Maggie and Glenn talk about the walkers in the barn, she doesn’t understand just how dangerous they are.  Everyone keeps telling their secrets to Glenn and he is acting weird because he isn’t good at lying to people.  It’s pretty obvious it’s just a matter of time until he has to tell everyone what is going on.

Rick and Lori get into an argument over Carl carrying a gun.  It doesn’t help matters any that Carl lied to Dale in order to get into the RV and steal a gun from there, showing how irresponsible he is.  After Glenn tells Dale everything he knows, Dale takes it upon himself to confront Hershel over the walkers in the barn.  Dale finds out that Hershel just believes that the walkers are sick people who need help.  He also discovers that Hershel’s wife and step son are in the barn as well.  Hershel doesn’t know what it is like out in the world and because of his connection to several of the walkers, he doesn’t want to know.

Shane takes Andrea out teach her how to shoot at a moving target, which is much different than shooting at a piece of paper like they had been doing.  He attempts to make her emotional and brings her dead sister Amy into it to put her under stress.  Andrea just gets angry and walks off and Shane realizes that he has gone too far.  He goes after her and tells her they have a lead on Sophia.  They go into an abandoned neighborhood and search through some of the houses.  They don’t find any sign of Sophia but they do run into a herd of walkers!  They make their way back to the car after taking out a large herd, giving Andrea first hand experience.  On the car ride back, Andrea makes advances towards Shane and they pull over.

Maggie and Glenn make a run to town to gather more supplies (and items Lori asked for which Maggie doesn’t know about).  While digging around for whatever useful items they can find, Maggie is attacked by a walker.  It’s a close call but Glenn saves her and takes out the walker with his knife.  We find out that Lori wanted morning after pills.  Without even talking to Rick she is going to try and kill her baby so it doesn’t have to live in this cruel world.  After taking them she instantly changes her mind and forces herself to throw them up.

Dale, thinking there is something going on between Shane and Andrea, confronts Shane and tells him he knows what kind of man he is.  Dale lets Shane know that he thinks he killed Otis and wants him to stay away from Andrea.  Shane threatens Dale and walks off.  Meanwhile, Rick finds the opened packet of morning after pills and confronts Lori.  She tells him that she threw the pills up and he wants to know if she has anymore secrets.  Lori lets Rick know about what happened with her and Shane when she thought Rick was dead.
