    A few little nods and bobs,

    Siddiq mentioned Alex being the name of one of the nurses. Alex is a medical assistant from the comics who for awhile dates Jesus.

    When Gabriel and Rosita are chatting about the amplifier, in the background you can see a hanging glass decoration that has a hole in it. The hole was made back in 516 when Gabriel and Sasha fought after Gabriel told Sasha that Tyreese deserved to die, and the gun went off, hitting the decoration.

    Two of the three new buildings [[one of which seemed to maybe be a distillery or a water dispensary maybe [lots of jugs around] and another seemed to be some sort of repair shop or a place that made things]] had false fronts on them, lol. False fronts were common in the west during expansion because they gave the appearance of economic stability. Many of the those old banks or places of business were built in structures of no more substance than a hallow barn. People didn't want to trust their money in a bank that looked like it might not be there in a week, or collapse, so they build false fronts onto buildings to make them appear more robust and permanent. They had no role in extra structural integrity of the building itself.

    Why would they need this at ASZ? Everyone knows the 411 lol. Maybe just as a nostalgic callback.

    Negan's cell appeared to have an open window with no way to close it. That would suck during storms and high wind and cold weather.

    I see a lot of people talking about Michonne being a hypocrite in her dealings with Magna's group. And the group as a whole too, gasping a murmuring upon hearing that Magna was in prison. Really? After they've spent ten years in a world of the dead, and have saviors living among them? But I don't think this is an oversight by the writers, I think its deliberate. A social point is being made there. When society rebuilds we get the good and the bad. Prejudices and hypocrisies. Haves and have nots. People to look down upon, whether it is logical or not. They are falling into that again after years of people getting used to having 'roles' in society again. "i'm at a certain station in life, and you're not". Every society needs its Bokonons. I suspect we will see more of this. Michonne exemplified it well when Magna asked if she could in turn ask Michonne a question. Her response? "No."

    Magna's group said sarcastically that this could be no worse than Jones Springs, which in turn they said they initially felt could be no worse than Coalport. So they went from Coalport to Jones Springs and are now here.
    Here is their route. Coalport Pennsylvania to Jones Springs WV, to Alexandria, VA. I bet it look them longer than 4 hours and 15 minutes.

    The musilpoops.

    Good stuff though! I never would have noticed the bullet hole on the piece of decor, good eye.

    You’re positive those are false fronts on the buildings? That’s interesting...I wonder if that’s something they did when they were still allowing newbies in.

    That’s a good point about all the gasping over her tattoo and the way Michonne dismissed her question. All the things they’ve seen and they are shocked she was in prison before the ZA? It does seem like they may be falling into social classes whether they realize it or not.

    Yeah the false front part is just the upper portion that extends higher than the actual roof of the building. You can see it when they show certain angles. The roof comes to an apex and the false fronts extend a several feet higher and are squared off.

    If you click the 'walk' symbol at the top, it says ''67 hours'' for walking from Coalport to Jones Spring and then to Alexandria.
    But I bet it took them longer than this as well.

    Google Map.
    At the upper left side of the screen, you can choose various kinds of transportation, including walking, cycling, air, train...etc when you do a route planning.

    Aaron always was concerned with curb appeal.

    The walk function must not take into account that people are human beings. And sleep, and poop, and look at porn. That would mean they average almost 3.5 miles an hour, for 67 hours straight. I imagine a more realistic walk would be 12 hours a day averaging 2.5 miles an hour [short bathroom and food breaks]. That would take about 8 days.
