So I watched the upcoming episode.
No spoilers, just venting.
They jumped the shark so badly with the situation Virgil and Connie face.
They cobbled together a handful of pointless, unrelated things people must have seen in other scary movies and said "lets make a big steaming pile of scary with a deeply personal overtone".
You have to watch it to see how deep in to the bottom of the barrel they have gotten in a search for new threats.
Just....terrible. arguably the worst wtf storyline of the series.
I was hoping they would get focused with the finish line in sight...but no. It was a mess.
Off the top of my head, I am going to vomit out a threat people have never faced in the series.
It is a stupid and ridiculous premise.... but less wtf than what Virgil and Connie run in to.
Some dude at the fall stocks up on protein powder and protein bars.
Gets sick or injured.
Hits up a pharmacy for antibiotics or pain meds.
All cleaned out.
Finds steroids. Takes them as his only option.
Decides he likes it, starts hunting more.
Moves in to a gym. Works out, takes roids.
Time goes on, food reserve runs out, starts catching and eating people.
People get less common. Roid fueled and hungry, kills a walker. Cuts out some leg meat, cooks the shit out of it and eats it.
Now- we saw the terminus people eat bob after he was bitten. Would it have killed them? Who knows? We do know that everyone has the virus and will turn. We also know they killed people and ate them, and survived a long time doing so.
Therefor, eating walker meat may not be fatal, especially if it is fresh and well cooked.
Anyway- dude starts living on walker meat, is ridiculously huge and angry from the roids.. like hulk sized muscle, and is so inundated with walker meat that his bites are just as bad as getting bit by a zombie.
...the above dude is literally less "wtf" than this week's new "danger." It is weak.
