3. “It’s a Beautiful Day” — Damnit Maggie! Don’t you know when you say sh*t like that in a zombie apocalypse drama you’re just asking for a redneck a**hole to take you hostage at gunpoint and take you back to his camp where the Governor will probably have sex with your toe webbings? So, Michonne led Merle to Glenn and Maggie, and Merle took Glenn and Maggie back to Woodbury, where he plans to interrogate them on the whereabouts of Daryl. Tune in next week for Merle’s lazy Asian jokes.
I’m going to be sad if they don’t get that adorable duck back to Lil Ass Kicker.
4. What the Hell Is Wrong with You, Andrea? — I mean, COME ON. Andrea continues to be the most maddeningly stupid character on The Walking Dead, although it was nice to see her jump the wall and take out a zombie, reminding us briefly of the woman she was before Maggie took over her character. Meanwhile, I’m not sure how she went from thinking the Ultimate Fighting Zombie Championship was too brutal to letting The Governor throw her a bone, but sure enough, The Governor charmed her into bed. Next week, he’ll seal the deal by showing her his cool floating head collection. The one catch here is that The Governor is keeping what he thinks he knows about Michonne (that she’s dead) and the knowledge that Merle has Glenn and Maggie to himself. He doesn’t want to cock-block himself, bro.
My colleague at Pajiba put The Governor among television’s most surprisingly sexy characters. I don’t see it. Ladies?
5. Zombie Kill of the Week — Michonne grabs the title again after taking a bath in zombie entrails. She earned it, folks.

Sometimes slow motion reveals the details put into a show (like the decapitation scene) and other times it shows the sloppiness (those decapitated body parts that look deflated.) Well, the episode was a keeper though with so much drama, blood and guts. Andrea and the Governor’s romp in the hay, and Rick talking to the dead and don’t forget Carol is alive. Since I love the show so much, I have the previous seasons on DVD and I was telling my DISH coworker how expensive it is to buy them. He suggested I get a Hopper DVR from DISH, since it has 500 hours of HD recording time, so I can store all of the shows from now on. That’s exactly what I did and now I watch them multiple times, when previously I would have had to wait for the DVD to come out at the end of the season.

shut your whore mouth
This post rocks solely for Mokikki.
And on a side note, wouldn’t it be more prudent to fend off zombies if everyone JUST WORSE SLEEVES ONCE IN AWHILE?
Don’t think it’d make much of a difference.
also i’m thinking that randall might’ve been from woodbury, i remember him saying that they have girls, or that they need girls, or want more girls.
but maybe that will explain the gov interest in that group from atlanta he keeps mentioning.
That’s likely.
i cant wait till the gov introduces andrea to his daughter. i’m starting to think maybe the gov might just be hittin all the women of woodbury, have them all have his babies. i mean, there is no child support cases in this world right?
That would seriously turn her off.
I just really want to know where I can get a sweet fiesta poncho like Daryl. Did anyone else find that article of clothing completely hilarious and out of place? I’ve been obsessing over it since he first put it on.
Agreed. It looks so bizarre every time he put it on, and he made a *conscious* effort to put it on a few times before doing something.
You should try looking up a “chullo”. It’s also peruvian and very cool.
I will. I’m going to a Comic Con in Knoxville in April to meet Norman and I am so stoked. Have to have one to wear there!
Cool!
Do you think Axel & Hershel sit around and trade moustache tips?
I was hoping the black guy and his kid would be the ones on the phone (from season 1)
I think they will try to soften up Michonne’s character on the show. She will join the group and tell Rick what she just saw and they will have a common enemy. Seeing as how badly tortured Glenn gets next episode I’m not sure how soon Rick and the gang will get there, also something fishy is gonna happen with Merle and Maggie, if there is any raping I think it’ll be Merle who does it, not the governor… after all he’s got Andrea and I think something even more terrible will happen to her later on…..
Yeah, that’s about right Gloria.
Yeah I keep wondering when the black guy and his kid will make another appearance.
I was happier with Andrea when she was upset by the gladiator event. After all, weren’t they needlessly exposing one another with that stupidity?
I was glad to see Hershel was smart enough not to confront Rick on his madness, and that it’s now over so we can move the freakin’ plot along.
Carol had to be alive so that there was some kind of tension between the brothers when Merle suggests offing everyone.
Carl continues his upward climb from annoyance by simply being there and not doing anything stupid. I like his scene of mutual mommy issues with Daryl.
I really can’t see Daryl turning on the group……
Neither can I, Gloria.
The more I think about it, the more I wish Lori had climbed out of the stomach of that zombie who ate her for a final scene with Rick. That would have been epic.
I prefer Carl doing the deed. It makes the situation seem so much more dire.
I mean like as a ghost or something – not actually being a zombie
i’m thinking Hershel realized right away that Rick was crazy-go-nuts. After all, that phone had no dialtone.
Yeah, and the way he looked at him after he picked up the phone. Also he didn’t seem that excited about the news from the phone.
I earned a Michonne Badge before a Gov’nah Badge…how did that happen?
Did Michonne Badge slice the head off of Gov’nah Badge?
You got jumped straight to ‘Official Badass’ on account of your official badassedness, obvs.
This may be true Iron Mike…but you can’t have the whole set minus the Gov’nah! That’s just not right.
Rick or Daryl should be the top badges.
Shouldn’t the Gov badge be an anti-badge? Like level -1 you get for saying something stupid or posting spoilers outside the spoiler section?
Okay, so I’ve commented on so many points from this episode and the great guys up Uproxx have brilliantly covered this episode but there are just so many things that I hated in this episode, so here are a few of my thoughts compiled together, [nerdsayswhat.wordpress.com] Is there anyone out there that agrees with me? Can I get an amen?
I disagree that it’s the first blah episode–that episode was the episode where Lori died. That was 40 minutes of killing time before the C-section
So i have things to say, but I don’t want to say them here. Check out my web page…

Great setup for next week’s episode.
Regarding all of the “How did Michonne find the prison” comments:
Are we now assuming that the Zombie Apocalypse resulted in the destruction of any and all street signs?
Experience tells me that prisons are usually pretty easy to find. They tend to be off major highways with private drives and a ton of signage telling you how far and on what side of the road they can be found.
This is not some magical netherworld that no one is familiar with. It is Georgia, with zombies. I mean hell she could have ducked into a Chevron and grabbed a road map. Do you really feel the writers should have devoted episode time to that scene?
Hell for all we know the prison is in what could be Michonne’s home town.
Also Michonne over-heard Maggie say “it’s basically a straight shot to the prison from here.” Based on the way their car was parked, their body language and yeah ROAD SIGNS, I can’t imagine it was ANY trouble finding the prison.
Speaking as someone who lived near one prison, and had a father who was a guard at another, there’s LOTS of signs to let you know you’re near a prison, just in case. In case of a breakout. You know how it is.
I can buy that she would find the prison, just not that quickly, especially if you take into account that she was shot.
So, did the Governor badge trump Michonne as the top one? I just went from Daryl to Michonne without getting the Gov.
Rick or Daryl should be the top ones.
I totally get why Andrea would want to stay in Woodbury. Who wouldn’t? What I can’t stand about her is her incessant need to prove she’s one of the cool kids. “I don’t want to do laundry, I want to kill zombies like you guys”. “I don’t want to be a worker bee, I have to be with the Governor, like it’s going to the prom with the quarterback”. Hell, even when she’s talking to the archer girl on the wall, she’s trying to prove how awesome she is, how she’s got it all figured out, but we all know she’s just pathetic.
crap. Stupid Andrea badge.
Karmic explosion!
I agree with you fully. You killed your dad and sister?? Well, I killed my sister… I can also defy orders and leap down on a walker RAMBO style!
Also, why did the Governor send that shitty archer to teach Andrea how to shoot? He really IS evil!
Andrea has completely pissed me off. She comes off completely moronic. I understand why she would want to stay there, but she preaches about her connection with michonne but won’t listen to her and then sleeps with the Governor. I hope she bites it next.
She’s just so damn needy. First with Shane, then Michonne, now with the Governor. ANY authority figure in her life and she immediately falls in along with what they say.
@miguel sanchez i wouldnt expect anything different. i mean u wake up one day and there are zombie’s everywhere. its basic animal instinct. the strong survives, this show is about survival. and no disrespect to the ricktatorship but who is surviving like the gov? the dude has got his own iced tea!!!! decide between hot showers, a bed to sleep in SAFELY, iced tea, or walkin thru the jungle wit michonne. i’m choosing woodbury.
If anyone is getting raped on this show it may be her getting raped by Merle and whatever henchmen he can come up with… Or the Governor…….
I was kind of upset when Rick snapped out of it at the end. I was hoping he would keep talking to the people on the phone and descend into madness. Would have been nice for him to just start being completely fucking nuts and getting advice and information from the voices in his head.
Also, I know the zombie guts bath works as camouflage against the biters, but it still seems kinda dumb for Michonne to be hanging out in the middle of a hoard of them as she walks up to the prison fence. I mean, seriously, why would you just be THAT CLOSE to them. Surely you can like hang out and walk a little ways away from them as you approach the fence.
Eh, the whole phone storyline got really tiresome in the comics. I would rather that they had just ignored it altogether, but at least it seems like they got it over with in one episode.
I think it was handled well.
I liked it, too.
Merle is gonna end up killing the gov. when they try to kill Daryl
I think both groups are gonna meet up soon, and the gov. can’t die soon (if he does die this season it’ll be for the season finale, episode 16) so maybe Merle dies first.
I hope that and then Daryl kills Merle
I think Merle is more like the comic’s Governor.
My two biggest beefs: Michonne’s ninja trick of running off into the distance, then dropping into the middle of the group like 5 seconds later. I’m pissed when zombies sneak up unexpectedly despite all evidence to the contrary that they can be silent, and I’m equally pissed when humans pull of some nightcrawler shit.
Second, how the fuck Merle managed to take down Maggie and Asian guy I wish I was so I could be nailing Maggie. They had two guns pulled on him and he still manages to get them off guard! He just screamed and they flipped the fuck out! Asian dude I could see being hesitant about shooting him, but Maggie was all about killing this crazy redneck right from the start. She should’ve cherry-pied that hick’s brains all over the street.
Michonne had enough time in the woods to set the trap, it’s not like she ran out ahead of them, cut a zombie up, then got into the trees while they were directly behind her. she had quite a head start, set up the biter-gram (which was a trap) and climbed a tree.
Maggie and Glen haven’t killed anyone. Rick’s the only one with human blood on his hands (except maybe Daryl?), and Glen knows Merle is Daryl’s brother. There would be no reason to shoot originally, and even when there was those two characters would need to be pushed the furthers to kill a living human.
They clearly saw her running in the trees ahead of them and that’s when Merle started to shout. I know she set up the zombie-gram beforehand. But there’s literally nothing else that could’ve been running the trees. Zombies don’t run, and there’s no evidence there were other people out there.
As for Maggie and Glen, they’ve got no problem killing zombies, the things that give so many people pause before killing them because they present characters with moral quandries about killing something that looks like someone they love becoming a monster. I don’t see why killing a human, especially a human they didn’t know at all (via Maggie), and threatening them would be such an issue.
He shot at them, he didn’t just scream at them.
Exactly. He never should’ve gotten to that point. There’s two people, pointing guns at him. His is in his waistband. They don’t drop their guns beforehand. They don’t even lower their weapons. He doesn’t catch them unaware. They’re looking at him with suspicion. Even the guy that knew him is suspicious and alert. So how the fuck does he get the drop on them when he’s gotta reach back and pull his gun? They don’t even shoot back.
goddammit andrea, we were ALL ROOTING FOR YOU!
time to hope for the rick and michonne ass-kicking show next week!
No, we weren’t.
Nope. Not I.
Well, now that she FINALLY was banged by the Governor, maybe she’ll revert back to being herself. After one or two shocks.
Yeah, hopefully, AFMG. By the way, what does your username stand for?
I hope they both die
20 bucks Merle calls Michonne “Weezie” in the finale.
*Weezy
Moving up to the prison like George and Weezy!
Great episode. I liked how Michonne showed disgust when the guts came pouring on her after she had cut the zombie open. She has seemed so hard, it was nice to see her show another side.
I’m still a little surprised how much hatred Andrea is getting. She’s just following the golden rules of prison. You need to kill someone or be somebody’s bitch. She chose the latter and is now safe, as she is the first lady of a safe town. That’s some mighty fine politicking.
I didn’t care for Merle overtaking Glenn and Maggie. Both are natural born killers at this point. I know Merle is a level 10 boss, but, c’mon.
BAHHHH! Give me my badge, damnit!
Michonne – Shot in leg… Zombie guts fall onto her yet no chance of any getting into the wound? So no Zombie Michonne?
That’s probably the biggest problem with this show. They don’t take any care at all to avoid blood and gore splatter, it shoots into their faces and wounds, you see them kissing eachother on places that have zombie blood all over it, but they’re always fine. One bite, you’re fucked. A gallon of zombie blood, drink up!
@Shawn
You raise a good point I have thought about before. With the number of zombies being gruesomely killed and splattered all over the place (usually by someone screaming with their mouths wide open) how has no one gotten any sort of sickness or infection? IF their bite leads to an infection and death how does getting covered in, and presumably ingesting, their blood and gore on a regular basis not lead to some sort of plague like outbreak?
@Shawn Well they haven’t really followed the rules of the comics exactly, and the comic rules are pretty shaky at that, but the way I consider it is like venomous animals. A cobra bite will kill but getting splattered with cobra guts doesn’t really cause death. Everyone is already a zombie-in-waiting remember? A zombie bite doesn’t actually turn a person zombie. There isn’t an “infection” to catch per-se. A zombie bite only kills the person by creating an un-healable wound that doesn’t clot. Maybe zombie mouths are just so full of bacteria from all the dead stuff they eat, like a komodo dragon?
Well yeah I might be thinking too 28 Days later or whatever. But I guess I am over thinking it. But I thought the Zombie bite slowly killed the person like in season one.
Yeah, Merle taking them may have been a little too convenient, but at least it moved the plot forward.
Re: Rick talking into a dead phone
He kept trying to radio Lennie James’s character throughout S1. He’s already established a precedent for using dead communication devices as a psychological crutch.
This is an interesting observation.
So, what you’re saying is that next season Rick will be using a Telex to receive messages from his shattered psyche?
Cricket wireless.
That’s something I didn’t thought. Good point.
I have to get this off my chest. I wish the role of the Governor went to Bruce Campbell. It seem like his kind of crazyness.
They originally wanted John Hawkes for it……..
Holy shit, John Hawkes would have been amazing. Who knew Sol Star could be such a badass? David Morissey’s been pretty good, but he hasn’t seemed sufficiently menacing and unhinged, at least not yet.
We could probably recast a lot of the characters with Bruce Campbell and John Hawkes, but then the TVs would all collapse due to an overabundance of “fuck yeah.”
Yeah pretty Bad Assed of Michonne to hide the whole time Merle kidnapped Maggie and Glenn…
I found myself screaming at her to go stab Merle in the back.
Exactly. Knowing the guy is bad news and just letting him do what he wanted to them to get him off her back? Seems cowardly to me
She looked ready to intervene up until the point Merle recognized Glenn. I think that made her a little weary of the situation.
Bet that part won’t come up when she talks to Rick and co.
It kind of has to. How else would she explain knowing about the prison and to know to bring the baby formula?
Yes, by all means she should have intervened. Forget that she had been shot in the hip, had no gun, and was about fifty yards away. She probably could’ve come out on top in such a situation. You know the old saying, “Always bring a knife to a gunfight”.
@Paul: don’t forget that she would be coming up from behind Glenn and Maggie, i.e. directly in Merle’s line of sight.
Yeah she couldn’t shout or anything. Or you know go all ninja and sneak around him like she has been doing the whole time.
Just seems less bad ass to me for hiding behind a truck and letting shit go down.
I think Hershel knew. It seemed he was listening for a ring tone, which I assume was not there. Although at least in the show the phone was plugged in lol
Also, why do zombies moan? Not like they need to breath. Think how much deadlier they would be with no moans and groans
well, they really don’t need to “eat” either, but that doesn’t stop them.
Hershel knew. That’s why he wanted to wait for it.
“Nobody Parties Like a Token Black Character Parties”- At least Oscar gets lines this early on. At the T-Dog rate, it would have been season 10 for that character to mention any footwear at all.
“Eau de Undead” – Rick and Glenn also tried the “dress up in zombie entrails” trick in season one. Oh, the things Michonne missed out on by being a bad ass lone rider out in the Zompacalpyse. She’s smart in that she figured out that disabled zombies kept them away, but the whole “Everyone is Infected” and “Zombie Blood” camo would have been good things in the intellect arsenal. I wonder what other neat tricks we don’t yet know because none of the characters on the show have shown us. (Haven’t read the novels, so I don’t know if there is more. For all I know rubbing peanut butter on their mouths just leave zombies doing that constant-chewing thing that dogs do.)
Someone needs to try the old Sean of the Dead Zombie Walk
RE: Andrea
“…reminding us briefly of the woman she was before Maggie took over her character.”
Dead on accurate. Though- really- it was pretty badass the way she took out that zombie when she jumped the wall.
I don’t think her issue is the whole, “now I need a man to protect me thing” so much as it is her using her wiles to sit comfortably beside the king. As soon as she finds out he is a crazy fuck I bet she will be looking to put some miles between her and The Governor.
Maggie’s hotter. Fuggit.
I don’t think her issue has anything to do with a man to protect her or sit beside. Her thing has always been wanting to feel capable herself- as well as have other people go, “Why Andrea, you really shot well today!” She was the female action figure last season, now it’s Maggie.
Yes, Joelski, Maggie is hotter.
I feel like I am the only one out there that hates Michonne.
I’m not too fond of her either, but I really dig the sword though.
Come the impending zombie apocalypse, I wanna be Michonne. *sharpens katana*
Do you have the ability to stare at people in a menacing way through their windows in some crazy Halloween homage while retaining the wit to go verbal rounds with people who survive on the yarns they spin?
*resolves to practice menacing stare*
somewhat slow episode but i think it sets up the final two episodes before the break nicely. I cant wait for michonne to get inside the prison and for the the shit to hit the fan. I dont care if they ever get the slut Andrea back but I hope they dont mess up Glen and Maggie too bad….especially not Maggie, shes too hot to be tortured!!
I was so happy to see her with that basket of formula at the gate. It took that woman a huge leap of faith to assume that she wanted to go find the group. I bet it had as much to do with her hatred of Merle as anything alturistic about wanting to get formula to an infant she didn’t know.
Yeah, it was a great setup.
Anyone else love how Carl basically told Daryl to shut the fuck up?
Yes.
But what I found most amusing about the Daryl-dead-mom anecdote was trying to imagine Merle as a kid. Somehow I think he was an even bigger prick back then (if that’s possible).
Picture Michael Rooker’s head on the body of a twelve year old.
Carl has really grown up since shooting his mom in the head
I still miss yelling, “Where’s Carl?”
Just yell it man. Every time you are at the prison and don’t see him, let it go.
He’s got too many merit badges on his cub scout uniform now to be treated as a child. The “Where’s Carl” Carl was dead as of the beginning of this season.
He is still that little mound of growing child that wanted nothing more than his father’s attention while playfully dodging zombies caught in mud to me. My where the time has gone.
I like that they’re letting Carl get over the whole “I shot my mother in the head” thing quickly as opposed to droning on and on about it for a whole season. If only they could have done that with the sophia story
Yeah, they forget to deal with a lot of stuff, hopefully they keep improving,
Also, why is the Governor going after Michonne anyway? Why let her go in the first place? She doesn’t know anything/hasn’t done anything, there’s no real reason to get 4 people killed in order to get her.
Michonne is the type of person to lurk outside of your little village and kill people one at a time until only you and her are left. Then she slices you open from the bottom up. I mean it’s not like she has anything else to do.
Except she’s clearly not, because she’s not only walking in the other direction, but also leaving a message to say not to follow her. The more I think about it, the less sense that scene makes actually…
The Governor has to be in control, and Michonne refuses to be controlled, so she has to be destroyed.
I still dont understand what the beef with Andrea is. why do u all hate her so much??? or atleast understand her character?
she has been on the run for about a year right? the world as she knew it is over right? she ran into a mysterious women in the woods wit 2 walkers on a chain and a katana blade, and she followed her for 8 months right? so why is that any crazier than staying with the governor?
i think we need to understand that after all that time going thru all that heartache and pain this would seem like the obvious choice and i’m sure most ppl would choose to stay in woodbury rather than go out in the woods.
i’m guessing rick is going to want to stay in woodbury if he ever gets there. i’m guessing everybody would except for michonne. u say that makes her smart?
i’m sure we will see the gov truly bad intentions sooner or later, but for now, andrea is making the best decision she can be the 1st lady of woodbury.
now i cant help but to think of LOST when i watch this and i can see Andrea running a con-game on the gov sorta like sawyer would do in LOST. the long con (see wat i did there)
i’m mad that glen didnt shoot merle but i understand how shooting merle would possible mean losing daryl from the group. daryl eventually learned to forgive rick and he probably still has hope that his brother is alive. but if glenn, who will probably be honest, tell daryl that merle showed up and they had a stand off and glenn shot first, well daryl would probably leave the group.
the best part of the show will come when daryl and merle reunite. i feel that merle kept daryl from being social and loved by others, cuz merle is so lonely and miserable himself. when daryl is telling his story to carl, i think he said something about him being able to have friends when merle wasnt around.
so when they reunite, will daryl leave his friends for his brother, cuz we know merle wont be going back to the group.
that moment will be the greatest moment in TWD history. merle cant die unless daryl kills him like shane and rick.
Andrea is terrible. At first I could see where she is coming from for wanting to stay, but when the person who has kept you alive for 8 months says it is time to go, it is time to go. The writing (or the acting) on the show portrays her as weak and in need of a man to make herself whole. IF she is playing him she is doing a helluva job cause she just comes off as a love sick puppy dog (“I hate the fighting”…”You like the fighting?”… “I like the fighting too.”)
Rick may be off his damn rocker, but the writing is on the wall in Woodbury and I dont think he is going to want to stay there any longer than it takes to spring his people.
Regarding Glenn and Merle. Daryl should have been a non factor. Shoot Merle in the face get in the truck and go home. No need to tell anyone you even saw Merle.
I agree it will be interesting, to say the least, when Daryl and Merle get together. I think Merle is going to be real surprised at the person Daryl has become.
Anyone else think it was a bit too convenient that Michonne walked up to the fence as Rick n them all went outside for the first time in the episode? So she figured out that people lived in the prison and if no one came out she would’ve waited?
Michonne’s the kind of girl who hides in the woods watching until she sees what’s what. She sees a guy carrying a baby, she figures these must be the people Glenn and Maggie were going back to. Which means that A) she has trade goods and B) they have an enemy in common.
Not convenient at all. Just simple. She overheard Glenn and Maggie’s conversation so she knew there were people at the prison. When they were grabbed she took the formula and made her way to the prison. She sat out there until she saw the survivors come outside, then she approached the fence. Pretty easy to make her out from the Walkers since every African American Walker is now a tad on the pale side.
Well, she did seem to have a bunch of formula with her as she was standing behind the fence.
Billybob’s comment makes logical points. Paul’s comment leaves open the big gap in logic here- how the hell did Michonne know where the prison even was? Pretty good guess. (And no, she wasn’t easy to make out because she wasn’t a “pale” African American walker, I’m pretty sure we’ve yet to see a walker carrying a grocery basket, or anything for that matter. So, despite looking like hell from being wounded and walking presumably very far while injured, it was pretty dang obvious she was human.)
@flora
Are we now assuming that the Zombie apocalypse resulted in the destruction of any and all street signs?
Experience tells me that prisons are usually pretty easy to find. They tend to be off major highways with private drives and a ton of signage telling you how far and on what side of the road they can be found.
This is not some magical netherworld that no one is familiar with. It is Georgia, with zombies. I mean hell she couldve ducked into a Chevron and grabbed a roadmap. Do you really feel the writers shouldve devoted episode time to that scene?
It’s just amazing how far the show has come from last years “Let’s just set around on a farm and look for a little girl” season.
*sings* How ya gonna keep ‘em down on the farm, after they seen Woodbury . . .
Lots of moving parts to last nights episode for sure. But I love how Michonne shows up at the prison with groceries.
” I accidentally got your friends kidnapped, but here’s some formula and a duck. We cool?”
Yes!!! So true.
Let’s see how trusting Rick is with her. Maybe she can share the cell block with the two prisoners.
Seeing how she brought Rick formula for his kid, when she didn’t have to, I think he’ll be a bit more open to her. Also, she wasn’t a prisoner.
RE: Rick & Michonne
Rick has been hyper vigilant about “threats” to “his group”. She doesn’t just show up with baby formula when needed, but with solid info on a very big, real threat. He’s going to lap that up faster than Judi-er-Little Ass Kicker drinks her formula.
Hopefully Michonne gets bite soon, or dies while trying to kill the gov.
