(96,960 posts)I can see how the story would be advanced with Hershel surviving this round. I can also see how it could be advanced with his death. I flipped a coin and Hershel lost the toss. lol
I like Hershel, so maybe he'll survive.
I still think Lori dies. Either now or by mid-3rd season. Unless she loses the baby. If she loses the baby then she could survive into the 4th season. She might just lose the baby tonight during the battle or early 3rd season. That would solve several problems. No questions about who the father is, so no lingering Shane shadows. Worries over how to survive with a pregnant woman - running, escaping, feeding, healthcare...the birth. How to survive with an infant as part of the group.
Course, Randall's former group is just up the road...so...survive the onslaught, remain on the farm..Hershel lives, Lori gives birth...confrontations with the "Governor"...pick up a few new characters.
I think they'll have to leave the farm though. So...
Or -
Who knows? It's gonna be exciting tonight!!
