Screw that. Carl is way too comfortable popping a guy in the head, especially for his age. I suspect we will see some major psychological problems with Carl in future episodes.

If it stays close to the comic, you're in for some doozies. Although his little pop off in this episode was a little sign of psychosis earlier than we saw in the comics.

What are they going to do expel him from school?

Don't know, but I would definitely not put him in charge as suggested.

Wonder if it will become a issue with him and his dad and they will have a showdown.....

That was a good shoot by Carl, he is fine.

I agree, but if they DID slaughter them coming out of the door (like I was hoping), then the Governor would until have been able to do it later. Personally, I thought they should have just stayed in Woodbury until the Governor's return, and then just pop him there while his guard was down. They knew he killed most of his troops. They should have brought the prison people to Woodbury as well.

The prison is more secure to house that many people with that nut job and is two gay lovers running around. I would've however left Meshone in Woodbury to go all ninja on the gov when he returned.

I could have fixed that whole problem with one dedicated guy and a bolt action rifle a long time ago.

I do agree that Carl is heading down the path that Shane was blazing for him, hopefully not to the same end. Which brings up the great moral issue. The object of living is not living alone, there is no point in surviving if you have to kill everything you stand for to do it. Shane was far to absolute, and he feared his own and his friends death far too much. I'm all for staying alive but at what price? Yes, logic would dictate you do whatever it takes to survive, but logic alone doesn't drive man to carry out his actions. The Gov and Shane lost sight of that, became strictly about living or dying.

As the spouse said after he pulled the trigger. "WAY TO GO CARL".

"You can clearly hear the sound of a spent shell hitting the ground as if it was ejected from a semi-auto. I didn't know revolvers ejected spent casings either!"

I read this and then watched the episode Monday night with the daughter and was paying attention waiting for that moment. (I also noticed Daryl running around with his AR's sights folded down.) But as far as the revolver ejecting brass, to me it didn't sound like brass hitting the floor. The blonde shot herself while slumped over sitting on the floor and it was clearly the Python hitting the floor, not hard, but I have to say they did a good job. To me it wasn't the brass hitting and 'ringing' or pinging off a concrete floor, it was more solid and dull, so I say she fired and then (blasphemy) the Python hit the floor. Listen to it again and let me know what you think.

Damn, I live a pathetically boring life to watch and then comment on stuff like this... and yeah, the damn kid Carl did the right thing, the other kid didn't drop the weapon fast enough.

[Jamnanc]

Yep that's all I could think of too was that sweet revolver clattering across the concrete floor. If Carl had shot the guy and he was holding the shotgun by the barrel or something it would've been a problem but I think he still had his hand in the trigger guard and was slowly swinging the barrel towards Carl Id have shot the guy too. Hershel should Have manned up and shot for him. That way Carl wouldn't have to deal with killing the kid.

[sneakerd]

Kid was not going to drop that shotgun, he was going to make a move. He was leaning forward to close the distance as he was acting like he was going to drop it. Carl shooting him at that moment was the right move.
