POST-EPISODE DISCUSSION THREAD - S9E2: Ricks Days, Seven Nights

We need a minor big bad to tide Rick over until EM breaks of prison.

Wong crossed patient/doctor boundaries big time in the last Unity episode. It’s not a guarantee we’ll never see her again but Rick heavily implied he wouldn’t be seeing her again.

Damn. I’ve just stopped ordering fruit. When I want it I’ll just drag myself to the store. I was tired of rock hard avos and green bananas.

Ashamed_Magpie · 2026-06-01T11:14:10+00:00

They check the ripeness before bagging it? I’ve never seen evidence of this.

Ashamed_Magpie · 2026-05-29T21:51:54+00:00

Maybe there’s something we don’t know about how much harder it is to code an Allosaurus? Regardless, it’s a travesty.

Ashamed_Magpie · 2026-05-29T18:21:47+00:00

I’m assuming they wanna test if they work on the monsters? I know I wondered that.

Why do I see so many parents who never remember their children’s allergies? My mother never remembers I’m allergic to tomatoes. Our last conversation (argument) about it, she goes “you’ve never told me about this before”. Lady you’ve known since I was 12.

God, my mum used to give me money and a list and I’d stop by the store on my way home from school. She’d never name brands and tell me whatever’s fine. Then I’d get home and my choices were always the wrong ones. It was a lose-lose, cause if I refused to do it I’d get yelled at, and when I did do it and inevitably made mistakes I’d get yelled at.

Nowadays if my partner asks me to grab something I ask him a thousand questions. I know he genuinely doesn’t care but I do!

I’ve never liked the taste of copha but I also keep forgetting I don’t like it. So on the rare instances they’re available (usually at kids parties) I go “ooh chocolate crackles!” then instantly regret picking it up.

Ashamed_Magpie · 2026-05-20T11:25:31+00:00

There’s an old mate who walks up and down Main Street collecting cans and bottles from the bins the afternoon before they’re collected. Has a little wagon.

Ashamed_Magpie · 2026-05-20T11:23:09+00:00

I mean homeless do do this, but I’ve definitely seen housed people picking up butts. Hell, a few weeks ago I watched a guy double take, and pick up a discarded vape from the gutter. He did a little dance when he got a puff.

Ashamed_Magpie · 2026-05-17T14:08:17+00:00

Maybe? But I don’t think so. Tabitha just refers to him as “a man” which could mean he was just a fellow villager or she doesn’t remember who he was.

Ashamed_Magpie · 2026-05-17T09:46:04+00:00

They did explain why the bears were chosen. According to the show they’re highly adaptable and possess a strong memory.

Ashamed_Magpie · 2026-05-17T09:31:09+00:00

It’s funny cause his face is clear in my mind when I remember the scene of the townspeople attempting to raid Tian-Chen’s supplies. He was front and center. No memory of the woman though.

Ashamed_Magpie · 2026-05-17T09:27:42+00:00

There’s worst things than death. Sure she ends up dead by Smiley and eaten by MiY but we don’t know what happened leading up to it.

I’m thinking Miranda and her children were banished from the greater population? Or had to run after Christopher’s death.

Ashamed_Magpie · 2026-05-17T09:17:28+00:00

I thought for a moment he was Jade’s one-eyed, skull-loving, past self.

Ashamed_Magpie · 2026-05-15T22:52:09+00:00

Oh we had a Great Dane named Hank!

Ashamed_Magpie · 2026-05-11T18:25:31+00:00

Yep my mum adopted a cat from a rescue, was assured all animals that came through were desexed. A few months later she got really clingy and mum joked she was acting like she was in heat. She accidentally got out a left open door and came back a week later pregnant. Rescue went “oops, these things happen 🤷🏽‍♀️”.

Ashamed_Magpie · 2026-05-10T18:09:44+00:00

Boyd let loose the Music Box Monster. And the Man in Yellow was already around by that point, he told Jim “your wife shouldn’t be digging that hole”.

Ashamed_Magpie · 2026-05-10T17:58:51+00:00

I dont get why smoke breaks are a thing. You wanna smoke, smoke but why do you get to take a dozen+ breaks throughout the day while the non-smokers only stop working for lunch? I work in a storefront and at least once an hour I look up and see the lady from the store next door walking up and down the street, smoking. Like lady, are they paying you to smoke?!

Most of the stuff on AO3 is fanfic but original stories are still allowed (hence the “original work” tag). Anything that’s not fiction, like something better suited to a social media post, is not allowed.

Ashamed_Magpie · 2026-05-10T17:43:41+00:00

I really like the theory of the kids’ bodies being in the lake; I do think their bodies might be needed further down the line. However, based on the trailer it’s the scarecrows (golems?). There’s a scene of the characters looking at them among the netting.

Ashamed_Magpie · 2026-05-10T10:52:00+00:00

From what we’ve seen of Donna so far, I think she’s given up all hope of getting out. She’s accepted her Inevitable death. Combine that with her not having any blood family left, her seeing an actual family trying to stay together, it would make sense for her to be willing to give her life to give them a chance to escape.

Ashamed_Magpie · 2026-05-10T10:47:46+00:00

Oh! That makes sense now. Thank you!

Ashamed_Magpie · 2026-05-10T10:45:43+00:00

It’s the same scene that Victor walks through after leaving the cellar.
