    1. Rick was quiet the whole time. And the soldiers thought he was dead. Same as Shane. Rick was quiet the whole time, so the walkers never noticed him. And the majority of them were chained up behind the door anyway. 2. Exactly Milton pretty much explained it perfectly.3 the governors group might’ve done it. It also matches the saviors. I think it’s just meant to symbolize being capture. And they tied into the CRM later. I’m going to assume that. Rick. Is responsible for making sure the prisoners stay in line. We also seen them in the fighting arena. In one of the images. Which, makes me think he’s responsible for leading them. Maybe he was down with that at first to protect his family. Watching from the shadows. Suggested by the art on the phone. But then something bad happened so he decided he needed to escape again. Multiple times apparently. Looks like maybe it was manufactured. To be used as a weapon, that’s what I get from Daryl Dixon show

    While the Governor taking out the Vatos is a solid and likely theory, I also heard someone theorize once that they also could've possibly been taken out when one of the old folks in the nursing home eventually passed away, and due to it being early-ish in the apocalypse they might not've figured out in time that everyone is infected and turns when they die. So they could've possibly been caught off guard and wiped out like that

      My theory is and this is all very far fetched, even outright crazy af, everyone was temporarily deaf from the explosion, theyd be loud AF! Louder than any gun they had without hearing protection and rick somehow survived his ear drums not being utterly destroyed like they would have in reality, hed never hear sound again and all that pain he was in it would definately cause shock thats why he didnt move, he was so far gone he was literally on the line of death, had they came any later he woulda died for sure and it wouldnt have taken the walkers to do it, he would have just layed there not getting medical attention. Rick has to be superhuman in some way cuz hes been like that a few times and some of the shit hes been through no normal human could survive. The hes a walker theory could work in a weird way. He was in a coma but if EVERYONE turns then he was unconsious and infected and for 2 months the nurse would have been pumping him full of drugs. Its possible the virus adapted to him and became asymptomatic, so he could get bit and hed be fine but thats not a cure its a protective barrier stronger than the average immune system. All those drugs hed been on while in the coma would habe clashed with the virus constantly and he should have died from possible overdosing.
      But with meds and the disease clashing it kept him from turning, chances are he died the night shane left him there but all those meds kept his organs going for a brief time preventing the virus from taking hold then ressurected after and it went on for 2 months, viruses tend to adapt based on their environment and since it couldnt win against an overwhelming amount of medication that should be lethal the virus did ressurect rick but the meds kept him from turning and made his immune system that much stronger and the virus could have gave him enhanced endurance after adapting to the meds for 2 solid months.
      So in short Rick is the first and only asymptomatic walker so he can no longer die from infection and reason i say that is if you look at his eyes throughout the seasons theyre changing color, that might mean somethings going on with the virus within.

      Even if they werent temporarily deaf something that loud would disorient anybody and theyd feel the shock wave coming off of it possibly knock them down as well.
      I would think otherwise it would have been impossible to not notice rick floating down river and since he was in the explosion almost comepletly hes definately in shock so he couldnt move hardly. Unless everyone else was focused on all the chaos the explosive just caused they would have barely missed him. Which the latter is highly unlikely.

    The Vatos may have been taken out by Randels crew. The Governor didn’t seem too interested in groups that weren’t a threat to him and Woodbury. Same with the Hunters of Terminus.... Gareth’s crowd was more of an ambush predator... lure them in as opposed to go out and plunder. Joes group seemed too small to be of any danger to an established community. The Savours and Wolves obviously weren’t in Georgia so it wasn’t them.... besides Negan wasn’t interested in destroying groups when he could have them do chores for him... unless Simon had one of his moments.... but still totally different states. Maybe Dawns group but once again not really their way of doing things.

      Not a mutated Flu, that wouldn't have been potent enough to Infect everyone on Earth. Also, there is literally nothing in nature that causes the dead to reanimate. What caused the Walkers to get up and start attacking the living can only have been a Bioweapon of unknown origin, one that mutated after going airborne and rewrote the rules concerning the balance between life and death. The French lab where the words "The dead were born here" was written on the wall strongly supports this, but it's incredibly unlikely only the French were responsible.
      I would say that I think the French lab was being used to create and deploy a Bioweapon designed to reduce the global population and make it look like some kind of new Pandemic. But they stumbled across something that got completely away from them, beat the lab Biofilters and went airborne, then woke the dead. The reason not everybody became a Walker early on? The Bioweapon took time to fully "mature" and, so, the very lucky few died and stayed dead unless bitten. Once the Bioweapon saturated the world, there was no way to stop what was happening.
      The French teams tried everything, but desperation drove them to extremes and created Variant Walkers. Then they were killed by people who found out what had happened and wanted someone to pay the price-excepting rare survivors like the woman scientist we see being executed in France. But France was Ground Zero and the only place in the world with original samples of the mutated Bioweapon-once the scientists were dead and the labs smashed? What little was left of humanity was left scrabbling to beat no less than the Doomsday Clock to recover what was lost in terms of knowledge and expertise to find a way to stop this before everyone dies, then gets back up again.
      We know they succeed eventually, one of the specials gave us a glimpse a long way into the future, but not how nor who did it. It could have been Daryl's young friend, it might be the scientists of the Civil Republic Military after Rick and Michonne blow up the base and clean out the crazy. Or, just maybe, Mother Nature beat it and the survivors who spent a lot of time amongst Walkers developed a baseline Immunity.
      We'll probably never know.

In fear the group in the office building knew about the heli-drop on the roof, and seemed like CRM knew they were there. Jadis turned in Kubliack for the perimeter.... Im wondering how much they let anyone know if they have outside contacts, could be death for all.

      Same thing as the CDC from Atlanta back in season two explained by the scientist. Hence he shows Rick and family the video of his passing wife’s brain scan before and after death. How the virus triggers and begins to reanimate the body. That CDC was trying to understand the virus, find its origin, and a cure. The CMR scientists are trying to basically reverse the effects of the virus before it takes over. It was explained by the CDC scientist to Rick that the virus already exists within them.

    Somebody asked why do the zombies not rot away. There actually is a scientific explanation for this but I will try an put it in layman's terms. When someone is infected by the virus, it is through a bite which allows the virus to circulate very quickly through the body' highway(circulatory system). This virus then attacks the cells of the various systems in the body and these cells become autonomous . As autonomous cells they now are all independent of each other which explains why the infected don't die ( again) if they are not shot in the head. The argument would be that the former nerve cells still maintain their natural abilities to transmit signals from the brain but these signals tend to be more along the lines of instinctual responses which is why the zombies tend to react very slowly. One of our primary instincts is to feed and that's what the zombies tend to try and do. As such the independent cells do not require the body to absorb nutrients through a digestive system to operate and can survive regardless of which human system has been compromised. Feeding is not necessary but simply a base reflex instinctual response. From what I can see, the cells do not reproduce through mitosis which means as the cell ages eventually it dies and is not replaced. The slow rotting, you can see how the zombies in the later seasons DO appear much more ragged, would be the cells that have been infected that are now dead but the zombies do appear to be very durable. So eventually once all the cells that are literally a "self contained organism" die the zombie would rot but it may take years or even decades before the entire process is completed.

      Nah, it was hinted by that secret organization the CMR or whatever. That the outbreak was somewhat orchestrated by the elites. It was done to be a mass wipeout to start all over from a couple thousand people. One of the soldiers in black, said that they wouldn’t be around for the reboot of the world. As they were just the pawns setting things in motion and working for the pre-new world. As it would take years for all the walkers and virus to die off.

    • @TWDExplained

      It all does not make good sense (of course because it's a zombie fantasy show) - but the show's reason for the not rotting - Whatever mystic force re-animates the body of the zombie also halts the decomposition process, the same as it does for other undead like vampires. - the walkers in TWD do rot but very very slowly. We get to see a scientist studying a decomposed walker (maybe 20+ years in) in one of the Tales of TWD episodes. It had decomposed and fell apart.

    The Primrose team is most likely in the Civil Republic, the question is whether they actually treat the virus there.
    As for France, it's a funny thing, it is probably the first country to "come back" after the epidemic.
    One thing also amazes me, why they imprison or kill these people from Violet's team, it makes absolutely no sense.
    These are the only people in Europe and perhaps on the planet who can turn it all around and get rid of the walkers for good.
    And from the ending of World Beyond and the series about Daryl, you can learn that they are somehow traveling around Europe to look for these scientists.
    And lastly, why did they create this virus?
    How on earth did it spread so widely around the world, after all, Jenner said that it was detected about 120 days before the global outbreak.
    This is terribly little time for it to spread everywhere, after all, there must be islands where the virus has not reached because even civilization has not reached there.

I don't understand why everyone has to have every little thing explained to them.. just watch and enjoy the show or don't.. complaining about it doesn't get anyone anywhere
