I don’t want Gail to die on TLMoE but if she does die, I want it to be in a different way than it looks like it’s going to be. Nothing devastates me more than a character death that could be prevented by Other Characters just having one little bit of information. Gail didn’t even die in the last episode and I was still wrecked by the fake-out of Todd rallying everyone together because of a Emergency. I knew it would be about Melissa, but I was still wrecked.

my horrible theory is that she’ll get out of the elevator all fine and dandy, go looking for the others, see Melissa, and Melissa (who I think is very far gone by now :( ) will mistake her for a threat and shoot her

and “does Gail live or die” will be the mid-series cliffhanger (But maybe she’ll live!)

Also I really, really wish I would stop hearing people say “I’m glad Melissa is interesting now, she was such a BITCH in season 1!” Because… no she wasn’t? She hated the guy who was creeping on her all the time and let him know how awful she thought he was. If the criteria for “bitch” is “rejects and dislikes the man who won’t take no for an answer” that says a lot about what people think about real-life women who dare to give a clear “no” to men. >:(
