Greetings Milwaukee Horror fans!
We've been waiting long enough for the return of AMC's hit television series The Walking Dead, and tonight, the wait finally comes to an end.
Season Two of the TWD will pick up where episode 7 left off. In Episode 7: Pretty Much Dead Already, all secrets were unleashed. Lori revealed to the group that she is expecting another child. Upon hearing the news, Shane immediately suspects that the child is his. He takes his suspicion to Lori, who tells him "even if the child is his, it will never be his."
While Lori's secret was a surprise to the group, Hershel's secret was by far the biggest secret of all. Hershel's secret was revealed to the group at dinner, when Glenn told the group there were walkers stashed away in the barn. The news causes uproar within the group, driving Hershel to tell Rick they have to leave by the end of the week.
Shane cannot bear to stay on Hershel's property when he knows there are walkers, but Rick tells him since they are on Hershel's property, they have no choice but to respect Hershel's wishes to leave the walkers locked away. Knowing there are walkers on the premises drives Shane insane and eventually leads to his unforgettable breaking point at the end of the episode. In the end, Shane rips open the door to the barn and takes aim at the walkers one-by-one as they exit. Daryl and other members of the group come forward to join Shane in the destruction of the walkers as Hershel falls to the ground, overcome with grief.
The nagging question of "Where is Sophia?" was also answered when Sophia is the last walker to exit from the barn. Consumed by shock at the discovery of Sophia and what she has become, Shane and Daryl cannot bring themselves to shoot her. Rick undoubtedly knows Sophia is a threat to the group's safety, as he walks up to her, points his gun to her skull, and pulls the trigger...
What will the second half of Season Two bring us? Be sure to check out the premiere of Episode 8: Nebraska at 9/8c, only on AMC, home of The Walking Dead.
