Spoiler ep8: How were we supposed to know.....


about..


them eating people? What was the first clue? Maybe I wasn't paying close enough attention, but when Ellie blurted it out in the cage I was like what??

I remember them saying "venison" but didn't get it

reply

They couldn't bury the guy Joel killed at the beginning. But Ellie didn't just blurt it out from nothing. She saw an ear.

That was a very EARie scene indeed.

Earlier on in the mess the whole 'it's venison' thing with the looks made it pretty clear.

It was kind of obvious when they are having mealtime and being told they are eating venison when they are starving, and then their leader comes in with a massive deer like he is ending their famine - like they have nothing to eat.

Seems unbelievable that they could drag that deer for many miles in the freezing cold too. That episode was stupid, and it seemed like a take off of the Walking Dead's experience almost getting slaughtered at Terminus.

The probability is that if you are strapped down and a table about to being butchered you're not going to be able to kill everyone around you and come out ahead.
