Welcome to the Watching Dead, the officially unofficial podcast for the Walking Dead on AMC. I'm Jim. I may run and today we're talking about season 11 episode four titled rendition.

I'm not actually sure how that title relates to this episode.

Are you extraordinary?

I don't know. I want to give rendition. I think of like the controversial extraordinary rendition where essentially like the United States like we don't torture people.

But we do turn you over to black cells in other countries or torture to fuck out of you.

Gotcha.

And you better talk to us or yeah, so I think they're going to obviously there's waterboarding like this is.

Yeah.

Timely considering we're up on the 20th anniversary 9-11 and we're kind of relitigating all that stuff in our collective country conscience.

So yeah, so I don't know how you feel about Darryl getting waterboarded.

I think they wrote that episode or this episode with that in mind like a winnow would be released.

That's interesting. It's like you know who knows who knows probably a little bit.

Yeah. I mean, how good not be on your mind at least somewhat.

Which think of this episode was it extraordinary?

You know, I thought this was a pretty good episode like it's one of the things where we talked about before where sometimes in the moment storylines don't work.

But the show assumes that they do and once it rumbles on a little bit they can touch on that shared history.

And like remember Darryl's got a girlfriend they they parted on mysterious circumstances.

She had a fancy knife that had FS carved into it.

You know, it's like I don't I didn't ever really bought that relate but like you know the fact that like oh I don't didn't really buy that relationship.

And they had all that kind of like you know magical realism poos hundred acre woods kind of searching kind of like all that stuff like didn't really work.

But you know if you look back and like okay well Darryl did have the girlfriend and that probably meant something to him.
