Yeah, I caught that. It does seem likely that the zombie Vivian has it in for will turn out to be Blaine, who has no memory of the things he did. That's bound to be messy when the two finally come together (and undoubtedly they will, and Liv will get caught in the middle).
Blaine never had any other zombies killed or abducted, though, so even though he was likely the one "extorting" Harrison Graves for brains, he probably isn't the one responsible for the former's disappearance, which is probably more likely to be the work of somebody associated with Vaughn and Max Rager.
I think she mentioned that she had no idea what the guy looked like, so Blaine might get away with that one. (Until the plot calls for there to be a confrontation of course.)
Major on teenage girl brain was the funniest thing I've seen in a very long time! Like, I can't even. I feel the need to listen to some Katy Perry. A nine year-old introduced Clive to GOT? Did I hear Vivian correctly when she said the mayor was a zombie? Hmm.
She was talking about the zombie D.A. who was one of Major's "Chaos Killer" victims last season and has now been freed -- whose name, hilariously, is D.A. Baracus, even though he looks nothing like Mr. T. I took her line to mean that she was suggesting him as a mayoral candidate, saying that the cachet of being a survivor of the "Chaos Killer"/Super Max debacle could help him advance his political career.
I don't remember if they ever explicitly said it, but in the show universe for how much time a zombie can stay without eating brains before he turns in a mindless one?
My impression is, a few weeks. Although they can't go much more than a week or so without getting hungry.
Has it ever been established just how much brain they have to eat in order to stave off the "hunger?" If brains could be concentrated.. Or even replicated in some kind of chemical or cloning process... Then a supply could be created.. Kind of like True Blood... Not the real thing, but just good enough to work...
That could be Ravi's next science project -- figuring out how to clone/culture human brain tissue like vat-grown meat. He could probably get a research grant from Filmore Graves.
Unfortunately we almost always witnessed only the eating habits of the protagonist, which has a virtually infinite supply of brains at her disposal.
Well, we also saw the Max Rager scientists experimenting on captive zombies and seeing how long it took them to deteriorate, so it may have been mentioned somewhere in there.
Major on Zumba instructor brains was . (Please don't die!) Never thought I'd say that, considering up until mid-season 2, I didn't even like him. Oh Ravi...
What is Zumba? I didn't understand that line -- I wasn't sure if he and his new friend were back on the teenage-girl brain from last week. (Ugh, talking about this show requires being casual about some rather disgusting notions.) Ravi is really being kind of a jerk to Peyton lately. I don't like the turn his character has taken. "The Scratching Post." Heh. That's actually a pretty clever name.
There was a time whenever I'd pass a secondary school, there would be a banner assuring the local community that this is where it's at.
The past few episodes are about as dark as we've seen Ravi in the whole series. Hopefully it doesn't last too long. What more could they do to him, turn him into a zombie? Speaking of, who are the candidates to be zombified? Ravi, Clive, and Peyton? I'd be fine if they all stayed human, the show has enough zombies as it is. And then there's Blaine. A lounge singer died and now Blaine is a lounge singer. Hmmm. Zen brain wasn't terribly entertaining this week from Liv. Hopefully next week's is better.
They did seem to move Liv to the background this week so they could advance the other characters' arcs. As Clive lampshaded, Liv didn't even have any visions from this brain. I wish they'd explained why -- maybe he was just so serene that nothing he experienced provoked an intense enough emotional reaction to trigger a vision. I wonder if there was a line to that effect that got cut.
I really disliked the brain-of-the-week this time. The gossipy persona was odious, and it contributed nothing to the story. It used to be that Liv's personality changes served some purpose in the overall storyline or character development, giving her some new perspective that helped her figure things out or that created complications in her relationships. But the past couple of weeks, her brain-induced personas have had no point beyond silly antics. Liv doesn't even seem to have her own character arc at the moment, since the story is driven by everyone else's arcs instead. I mean, I'd expected that her newfound tendency to gossip and spill secrets would've created plot complications because she spilled one character's secret to another character, and they would've gotten mad at her for the betrayal, something like that. Then it would've actually served some purpose to give her such a thoroughly obnoxious personality. Also, why are Liv and Major the only zombies who ever seem to go through these complete personality changes? Zombie Blaine was always pretty consistently Blaine, aside from a few mild quirks from time to time. Blaine's dad and the dumb sidekick (Donny?) always seem to have consistent personalities. But Liv is so mutable that she sometimes seems to have no personality of her own, especially lately. Are they even doing her internal-monologue voiceovers anymore?
Maybe because Liv is the central character so it would make sense to see her personality change. I don't think seeing Blaine go through those experiences would move the story along. I'm sure he did, it probably happened offscreen.
