24. The field walker was on the wrong side of the car on the way home.

And I am pretty sure, he was walking in the opposite direction from the first time they passed him by.

I really feel sorry for Randall. Jumps onto metal spike, his friends ditch him, his new friends try to do a field amputation with no anesthesia, he gets back to the house, is stitched up and on his feet in a week (Herschel has some mad surgical skills between Carl and Randall to have them up and about in a week), gets driven to zombie yard to be left for dead, then has to get packed up into the trunk again to decide if they want to kill him tomorrow and all the while they are talking about killing him in front of his face.
