Walking Dead Season 2 Episode 4 "Cherokee Rose"

RIP Otis
At a funeral service for Otis, Shane is asked to recount Otis's last moment.  He makes up Otis's last word,s conveniently leaving out the fact that he shot Otis and left him to be zombie meat. 

Daryl looks for Sophia: Day Three
The group decides if they find Sophia and she has been bitten they will kill her.  Since Rick is too weak from giving blood and Shane is hurt, Daryl goes off on his own to look for Sophia.  He stumbles upon an abandoned farm house.  While searching inside he finds a recently opened can of sardines and a closet with a pillow and blanket inside.  It looks like the perfect hiding spot for a small 12 year old girl.  He calls out but gets no response.  When he gets back he tells Carol the story of how the Cherokee rose got its name.  Oh Daryl, you have a heart of gold.



Maggie and Glenn go to the pharmacy: Trip #1
Glenn gets sent to help Maggie since he's "fast on his feet and good with the in and out."  You can just feel the sexual tension.  Lori asks Glenn to get something for her from the pharmacy and keep it a secret.  They go on horseback, which I personally think is a bad choice.  I don't understand why they didn't clean out the pharmacy.  If it were up to me I would have taken everything a long time ago.  I love that Glenn grabs a basket when they go in.  I also love how awkward Glenn is around Maggie.  Even after she says she will have sex with him.  The pharmacy is also not the best choice of places to have sex.  A walker could just walk through the door.  They didn't even check to see if they were alone.  When sex is an option people's brains go out the window.  This episode is when Glenn becomes the secret keeper of the group.

I wouldn't drink that if I were you
As Dale and T-Dog are pumping water from a well Dale notices the well cover is broken.  Upon looking down he sees a walker in the well.  A bloated, growling walker.  Glenn becomes bait once again.  Glenn is awesome.  He is given a lot of dangerous tasks to do and doesn't complain.  The well walker is one of the grossest walkers.  When he splits apart it is awesomely disgusting.  Way to go Greg Nicotero and team.



Let's talk about God
Every time God is brought up on the show it feels really forced.  The conversation should come naturally on a show where people are dieing all of the time and trying to decided if life is worth living.  Hershel also tells Rick that they can't stay on the farm.  Once they find Sophia they have to leave.  Rick begs Hershel to reconsider for the sake of Carl and Sophia.
