The Walking Dead: Better Angels (2012)
Are they kidding us???
This is perhaps the best episode from Season 2 - BUT the last minute destroys everything.
The plot goes perfect: Shane plans seriously to kill Rick, so he gets him out into the woods to search for Randall who's gone "missing". In the meantime, most of the group is in the house, scared that Randall will bring his armed friends to the farm. After hours of walking, the two guys end up in an open space - the perfect place for the coming showdown. Rick finally understands what's going on, he manages to kill Shane in a very clever way, and he waits there thinking about what has just happened.
Everything perfect so far.
Then... Carl appears. Are they serious?? After all the distance Rick and Shane have traveled in the woods Carl just pops up?? In addition, everybody in the house is on his guard - and nobody notices that the boy is missing?? Who's buying this??? And when Rick moves towards his son, THEN (only then!)zombie-Shane gets on his feet and goes for Rick (without Rick noticing or Carl warning him), THEN Carl "Clint Eastwood" kills Shane with one shot over Rick's shoulder, and THEN a herd appears (apparently the fight between Rick and Shane couldn't attract not even one damn walker, but the gunshot attracted hundreds of them...). And a few seconds before the end we see that all this has happened within a few yards distance from the farmhouse... Come oooon!
By far the worst, the most disappointing ending. I expected a little more realism, guys, and a little more respect for us. What do they thing we are, stupid??
