Transplant Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 I think the driver was DAVIDSON!! The driver was Negan! The season will end with Glenn's brain chunks stuck in Lucille (thumbs u Is it really too much to ask to not have comic spoilers here in this thread? Haven't we discussed this before?

Transplant Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 I do agree the Gov actually looked surprised the truck was coming through the gate....I rewatched it a few times now. Listen everyone "THE GOV" knew the truck was going to go through the fence. READ THIS http://www.amctv.com/shows/the-walking-dead/episodes/season-3/home#episode-details-1021974 " Rick's group runs for cover as the Governor and his men attack. Gunfire erupts on both sides. A bread truck comes crashing through the prison gate and stops in the yard. The Governor smiles as the back door opens and walkers stream out. The Governor drives off as the survivors struggle with the dead. Well, I'm convinced. No, wait. I'm not. Explain how this summary proves in any way that he knew the van was coming? I'm not saying he didn't. It seems more likely that he did. But what you quoted does nothing to prove it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking it was an independent delivery company trying to take over the reins since the USPS, Fed Ex, USPS, & DHL are no longer available. The driver/girl was lost and ran into a crazy Glenn on the highway and Glenn assumed she was from Woodbury and started chasing her so she got lost trying to escape from him and ended up at the prison. She freaked out because of the shootout that she let her cargo of zombies out to distract everyone from trying to shoot at her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ItsJustRyan Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 I looked at the video again to see if the "pants and shoes" of the driver give anything away. Nothing. Still don't think the gov. knew about it. Still think it could be Andrea, but am prepared for the storm when it's not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't quote anything it's from AMC website...And this one is from eonline website....Not my quote My point is not that it isn't one of his people or that he didn't know about it before. Chances are, he did. It's the simplest explanation. My point that you can't be certain based on either his reaction in the episode or the summaries you're quoting. That one from E! is even more useless, IMHO. At least an argument could be made for the A&E one being an "official" summary. But it doesn't weigh in on the issue.

retrothecollector Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 (edited) Here's more... http://www.fearnet.com/news/review/tv-recap-walking-dead-episode-310-home "Back at the prison, Carol and Axel are fortifying the fences when Axel drops dead. The prison is under attack, by humans with guns. Carol takes cover beneath Axel’s body, Hershel drops to the ground, Carl starts shooting, and even Rick returns from the land of nonsense to join the firefight. And just who is firing? The Governor, or course. Bullets rain down on both sides, but then the Governor stops shooting - to watch the show. An ice cream truck rams through the prison gates and rests in the yard. The back opens... and walkers flood out, followed by a Woodbury denizen in full body armor, firing as he goes. The Governor laughs as the prison folk turn their attention to the walkers. Michonne starts beheading them; Glenn shows up to find mess meeting fan; and the Dixons roll in with weapons blazing - even Merle. When the dust settles and the Governor leaves, the body count consists of Axel, the truck driver, and several dozen walkers. The prison still has one standing fence around it, but the safety nets are gone." Edited February 20, 2013 by retrothecollector Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then they release a bunch of zombies out of the back. Well I don't think that was such an awesome plan. All the people inside the prison are already used to killing zombies pretty easily, so it's more of just a nuisance. If they really wanted to cause trouble they should have taped guns to the zombies hands or put more soldiers in the back of the truck." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Transplant Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 Why would 3 different sites say the same thing? Did you ever consider that? I will find more....before next Sunday.... Keep finding all you want. Unless it's someone from the show with inside knowledge, it's conjecture based on what we all watched in the episode. Nothing more. People could just as easily quote this thread for proof that the driver was Andrea. Doesn't make it so. Continuing to try to convince me with summaries from reviewers or fan sites is a waste of your time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
