So I watched last night’s “Walking Dead”, and once again, it ended with a huge shocker that got everyone talking. I’m going to talk about last night’s episode and my prediction for the Season Finale, for this coming Sunday, but I will do it with a spoiler warning for those who didn’t see it. The big spoilers are under the lines. If you haven’t seen any of it this season, then I suggest you not read any further.
Here we go…..

The Governor have offered, Rick and the gang complete immunity if they would bring in Michonne. Of course, that offer is a lie, and the Governor is not to be trusted. Rick was going to do what the Governor requested, by bringing Michonne to the Governor, but Merle Dixon ends up leaving the prison with Michonne. Why? Simply because Merle didn’t want Rick giving Michonne to the Govnernor. Merle knows the Governor better than anybody, and he knows that the Governor’s immunity offer was a trick. He knows the Governor’s plan was to kill Rick and everybody else. As Merle and Michonne traveled, Merle sends Michonne back to the prison, announcing that he has to do something alone. After Michonne takes off, Merle decides to take matters at his own hands and take down the Governor and his men himself, but of course, The Governor, already killed Merle, before he even got to him.
As Daryl went searching for his brother, the area where Merle and the Governor had a big shootout, there were bodies of the Governor’s men all over the place, so Merle already killed some of the Governor’s men. Daryl finds Merle as a Walker, eating one of Governor’s dead men. Last night’s Walking Dead ended right there. Last night’s episode, never showed how Merle was killed by the Governor. I think there is a good reason for that. They want to keep Merle’s death a mystery until the end of Season 3.
How do I think Season 3 is going to end?
Well, judging by the books, there is another major shocker coming, that hasn’t happened in the show, yet and that’s how I believe the Season 3 finale will end. In the books, Rick had a major announcement that he will announce to his friends. He kept a secret inside of him that he didn’t want to reveal until later. What is this big secret that he kept? Well, Rick revealed that everybody is “The Walking Dead”. Yes, that means people who are still alive and walking. It doesn’t matter how you die, everyone will get turned into a walker. It’s not by another walker bite, is what makes you turn. Remember back in Season 1 at the CDC building, where Dr. Jenner whispers in Rick’s ear, and nobody knows what is said? That was the secret that Jenner told him. Rick held that into him after all this time, and I think he will finally tell his friends that in the Season Finale.
The show did hint you throughout the first two seasons of Rick’s secret. In Season 2, Glen and Daryl finding a dead walker with no bite marks, is the big clue. Another one, Rick shooting Shane and Shane turns. Merle’s death in Season 3 will finally lead Rick to revealing the secret.
As far as Season 3 goes, it’s okay. Slightly disappointing. I was hoping they would use Michonne getting chained up by the Governor, instead of Andrea like it was in the books, but I understand why the TV show couldn’t use Michonne getting chained up and raped by the Governor, ’cause it would be too controversial and dark for TV. I kind of figure they weren’t going to use Michonne for the rape scenes, for that reason. If they used Michonne instead of Andrea, the film makers of “The Walking Dead” would be accused of being racists for sure, and we don’t want that do we? It could get the show cancelled.
I’m looking forward to seeing how Season 3 is going to end this coming Sunday, and I’m pretty sure, my prediction is going to be right. Just wait.

Uh, they did show how Merle was killed. The Governor shot him in the chest.
I’ll have to watch that episode again, today. I might of missed that part, but at least I proved my point that people don’t turn into walkers by bite marks, you turn into a walker no matter how you die. That was the secret Jenner told him and Rick held that into him after all this time. Rick will finally reveal that at the end of Season 3. I’m 100% positive, that’s how this season is gonna end. I’ll bet your money on it.
Kev
Yeah, everyone already knows that everyone is infected.
Rick already told everyone that in season 2:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beside_the_Dying_Fire
Yeah, but Rick only explained small parts of it. He only said they were all infected, not exactly saying how people turn, when they die. At the end of Book 4, “The Heart’s Desire”, there’s a big speech in there where Rick explains that they become one of them when they die. He didn’t do that at the End of Season 2 at the link you point out. He only said a small portion of what Jenner said. There’s more to it.

On a side note, I’m really pissed off at this season honestly. I really wanted the show to use Michonne to get chained up and raped, ’cause that would be even more compelling! In the books, she escapes herself, and she kills the Governor herself by chaining him up for payback.
Seriously, you should start reading the books ’cause they are 10 times better than the show. I’ve only read the first 6 of them, but will get back into collecting them again.
