anyway, that wasn’t even the juiciest part of the episode. we got:
- the scene on the log between negan and daryl, where negan is like “i don’t think she’s coming” and daryl looks like a kicked puppy
- imaginary!alpha saying “remember how you lost all these ppl?” and carol being like “yeah, that was a bummer” and then she’s like “and you could lose daryl” and carol is immediately all “SHUT THE HELL YOUR MOUTH”
- once again, carol is the Only one who has verbalized the thought that daryl likes connie. she seems rather stuck on the idea
- eugene and stephanie parallels to caryl, in that eugene is like “i recognize this may end badly, but i’m willing to play the fool and try” meanwhile imaginary!alpha says “no one is ever gonna forgive you, esp daryl” and carol is like “maybe you’re right, but i’m willing to play the fool and try”
- (speaking of parallels, i find it interesting that the episode where beta loses alpha is the episode carol decides to return to alexandria/daryl. re: foils. more on that in a separate post later mb)
- “what do you want? say it?” did you notice? how she never?? said it??? bc the implication was supposed to be “i want to die” but by the end, she chooses to live. and we have empirical, canon proof that what carol desires most is a chill domestic life with daryl, re: dream
- (btw, callback to s2 when daryl asks carol “what do you want?” and she says “a man of honor” -thinking emoji-)
- The Absolute Tension at the gate, hoo boy. this is some serious edging
- and then ofc there’s the lovely line “it’s never too late”
- it’s never too late, my dudes
- ten years isn’t too late
- we still have time
- (side note: that’s a super poignant and important line, but every time i think of it i think of the 30 rock episode/song “it’s never too late for now” and it’s going to stuck in my head forever, thnx twd)
- anyway, i am suuuuuper glad i avoided the q&a, bc it seems like y’all hit the ground faster than a horse on twd
- i’ll prob word vomit more later, bc it’s me and that’s what i do, but for now i gotta get ready for work
- so i’ll just say that while that episode wasn’t as explicit as we may have wanted or hoped (which was always a possibility), it was still -chefs kiss-
stay hype, stan kang, and get daryl to call carol sweetheart 2k20,
