Precisely, it's hard to get mad at a piece of lifeless matter that doesn't give a crap.

Speaking of… was it just me or the animation of this episode was seriously off? I'm going to need to download HD versions of both the previous episode and this one, but several panels, particularly from far away and particularly in the jury room when Megan and Conner arrive, looked dismally lazy/unfinished.

Wouldn't it have made more sense to have Barry be the one taken by the explosion, and have Wally take over the mantle of Flash? (and, in turn,  Impulse take the mantle of Kid Flash?). I get it, it would not have led to the same level of drama (Nightwing taking a break, people hooking up, etc), but it would still have…

Haha! Good eye, since I didn't even question it. But they are 15 mere years apart in real life. So it's kind of questionable as you point out…

Haha, to be fair though, the hemming and hawing and the town meeting *could* be considered ways of thinking.

I for one am excited about the precipitous rush Rick will put the group into proving that the group is "not broken", only to find out the hard way that it is (courtesy of a confrontation with The Others, and a potential reveal from Randall regarding Shane's true intentions).

Don't know, but (SPOILER AHEAD) the dude that was driving the truck is listed as appearing in the next episode also.

Quick thought: Does anyone think Dave is really dead? He only got one shot at the end of last episode and disappeared behind the bar. By comparison, Tony got 3 shots and we saw his body (bullet on the head included).
