Margot and Meaks discuss season three, episode seven “When the Dead Come Knocking” and take a long hard look at no one’s favorite topic: sexual assault! We unpack Merle’s true face because we’re kind of relieved we don’t have to pretend he’s someone else anymore when he’s always been a huge, racist, misogynist jackass — the Gov’nah just told him to keep that in check when the community was around. We talk about the devastating torture of Glenn and Maggie and broach the subject that I’m sure we’ll continue to unpack about how writers use rape and sexual assault for plot purposes. We’re so happy to have Michonne with our gang because she brings a whole new dynamic to this group, and who doesn’t love a rescue mission?
Other topics and tangents include: what does Michonne know when, wacky timeline is back, Carol’s reunion with the group, more Daddy Daryl please!, and what D&D classes do you think our main party would be?
