Well I think we can all agree that the “calm before the Negan” storm is turning us into zombies ourselves. So far, Negan’s the guy who says, “yeah, I’m totally coming to the party!” and then doesn’t show up ’til the end even though he promised to bring the beer.
This episode may not have been the doozy we were all hoping for, but it did have a big ‘ol mystery: What’s the deal, Carol? Are you baking-Carol? Badass-Carol? Sad season 1 Carol? WE DON’T EVEN KNOW YOU ANYMORE.
But I’ve said too much – I’ll let the tweets speak for the Carol confusion:
And as per yuge, be antisocially social with us every Sunday and live-tweet #ThreadTWD with @Threadless on Twitter!
. . .

First, a slew of pretty awesome pop-culture comparisons that this episode caused…y’know, before the Carol confusion ensues:
Anyone else getting flash backs to Shaun of the dead where they meet their doppelgangers? #threadTWD — Hawke (@batmanjohnson) March 14, 2016
I’m just waiting for the little “Saw” puppet to ride by on a red tricycle. #ThreadTWD — fredoindallas (@fredoindallas) March 14, 2016
It’s as if we are in an episode of ‘Vice’ right now and the reporter has been kidnapped … and then your in a video game #ThreadTWD — MizzMegatron (@MegMKline) March 14, 2016

And then there it was. The evolution of Carol…again. Carol has thrown us through quite a few hoops, and this night was no exception. What’s your game, Carol?
Why is Carol being so weird? She’s like scared .. I feel like we are seeing Season 1 Carol … or is it just me??? #ThreadTWD — MizzMegatron (@MegMKline) March 14, 2016
Carol’s bout to bite some throat. #threadTWD — Hawke (@batmanjohnson) March 14, 2016
Carol’s only fear is running out of baking supplies. #threadTWD — Hawke (@batmanjohnson) March 14, 2016

Carol is gonna cut all of them #ThreadTWD — MizzMegatron (@MegMKline) March 14, 2016
Meek Carol is the scariest thing in this episode so far. #threadTWD

Ooooh, Paula…you’re wrong there. “Pathetic” Carol is more like mama-bear-after-you-stole-her-cub Carol. Except with planning. #threadtwd — Alex (@alleycat2007) March 14, 2016
Ok I am not so sure about Carol still — She’s still acting weird … right??? #ThreadTWD — MizzMegatron (@MegMKline) March 14, 2016
Females are strong as hell. #evilKimmySchmidt#threadTWD — Hawke (@batmanjohnson) March 14, 2016

Maggie is the new Carol. #ThreadTWD — fredoindallas (@fredoindallas) March 14, 2016
I’m really happy that Carol got a hug. #threadTWD — Hawke (@batmanjohnson) March 14, 2016
