Day 5: The group escapes the CDC, Jacqui dies in the explosion, the group spends the night camping somewhere near Atlanta the season 2 debut begins with Rick on a rooftop overlooking Atlanta the next morning, talking on his walkie-talkie.
Season 2 began the day after the escape from the CDC, and ended about a month later, maybe a bit less, maybe a bit more, but they were on the farm for no less than weeks, no more than 6 weeks - enough time for Lori to realize she was preggers, but not enough time for Shane's hair to grow back he shaved it off the first night they were there, which was two nights after they left the CDC. And since Rick would have died of dehydration if his coma lasted more than a week or two after the hospital was abandoned, and the hospital was abandoned shortly after Rick got there things went bad VERY quickly, and hospitals were the first places to fall because that is where everyone who was bitten went.
When Rick woke up, he had a bit of stubble, but not much - I'd guess about 2 weeks' worth by average beard-growth rates - and the lights and water were still on; so he can't have been in the hospital for more than a week or two after it fell, maybe 3 weeks total after he was shot. Finally, Shane and Lori only hooked up after the city fell, probably after they got to the quarry campsite; she probably wouldn't know she was pregnant for a month or so after conception she'd notice she missed her period before morning sickness started happening.
So they left the farm no more than 8 weeks after the outbreak began, possibly as little as 5 weeks, probably closer to 6 weeks. By the time they reached the prison, Lori was very pregnant, and they had spent the entire winter on the road they said so ; it seemed very warm already, so it was probably mid-late spring; on the farm it seemed warm, but not terribly hot, and they were worried about it getting cold soon the subject came up late in season 2.
So between the end of season 2 and the beginning of season 3, at least 4 months passed, possibly as much as 6 months.
That is months of survivors dying and coming back as zombies. There were lots of zombies in the world when they reached the farm, of course, but not as many as there would be a year later.
Think about season 1 - the group was camping within sight of central Atlanta, perhaps 5 miles or so outside of town, yet the first time we see a zombie enter the camp, someone says "They never make it all the way up here! They could even go into the city itself for supplies and make it back safely as long as no one fired a gun and attracted a herd.
Herschel's farm is much farther from major population centers, so there were far fewer zombies in the area. As for there being more zombies at the prison, several months had passed, so there were more zombies in the world.
The prison was far from the farm and presumably closer to big towns and cities they mention Macon in particular. And large numbers of zombies only start showing up after dozens of people from Woodbury move in, which made the prison a much noisier, busier place, with much more activity to attract zombies. Several pigs in a 2 acre yard behind 2 chain link fences attract more zombies than several cows on acres behind a series of wooden fences.
More animal noises in a more confined area that is more exposed and visible, basically. Moving on to the issue of herds I'll let Sgt. Abraham Ford explain I edited out the naughty words. Usually they ignore everything but potential food - if it isn't prey, or something that might be prey, they don't even notice it. If no such prey is around, they either hang out waiting for prey, or they wander aimlessly looking for prey. But sometimes , one zombie will see another zombie walking, assume that it is chasing prey, and start following it.
The walking zombie might indeed be chasing something, or following a sound it heard; but it might just be wandering aimlessly - it doesn't matter. Then another zombie sees the first two walking, assumes that they are following prey, and starts following them. They pass another zombie, he assumes they are chasing something, and he starts walking too This goes on and on, and eventually you have a herd walking along chasing nothing, or maybe chasing a sound none of them remember hearing.
They might keep walking forever - each one assuming that the others are following prey. Eventually, they'll probably stumble across some sort of prey, totally by accident.
He moans, and starts walking towards it. Half a mile away, a second zombie hears the first zombie's moan, moans himself, and starts walking towards the first moan. A quarter mile away, 2 more zombies hear the second zombie, the moan, and they follow the others Or a zombie might see a car or a person.
The zombie will keep walking in the direction he last saw the prey going. Other zombies who didn't see the prey spot the zombie walking along, and they join him. As they pass other zombies, the group grows, and again, you get a herd chasing prey that none of them remember seeing. This is what happened with the herd that attacked the farm. A few zombies saw a helicopter and started chasing it.
Being a helicopter, it was moving so fast that it vanished out of sight very quickly, of course, but zombies are REALLY stupid, so they kept walking in the direction they last saw the helicopter going. Other zombies saw this group walking, assumed that they were heading towards food, and joined the group. They all forgot what they were chasing, but each zombie saw the rest of its herd moving and assumed that the other zombies knew there was food ahead, and this kept all of them moving in the same direction for days.
Then, at exactly the right - or wrong - time, Carl fired his gun. The herd heard the shot and changed course - they turned and went towards the sound of the gunshot. So many zombies! Hooray for all of the zombies! The womenfolk wait inside the house as Daryl and Glen return.
He also reveals that Randall turned into a zombie without being bitten. Lori panics and begs Daryl to go out and find Rick and Shane.
Carl and Rick hurry towards the farmhouse and the kid demands to know what happened. Rick pauses and starts to explain, but they realize an entire army of zombies is bearing down on them. Glen and Daryl and Andrea watch from the porch as the herd lurches towards them. Rick and Carl run across the lawn and barricade themselves in the barn as the other Still Alives realize that Carl is missing from the house.
The Still Alives kill the farmhouse lights and grab their guns. They have guns and they have cars and they will take out as many zombies as they can and use the cars to lure the rest of the walkers away. In the barn, Rick douses hay with gasoline and commands Carl to climb into the hayloft. Rick tells Carl to drop the lighter when he gives the command, and also tells him that he loves him. Rick opens the barn door and lures the zombies inside. Now, Carl, now! Drop that lighter! Incinerate those zombies!
The motorcade of Still Alives takes off. T-dog drives while Andrea shoots, and Maggie has the wheel while Glenn is on gun duty. Daryl fires from his motorcycle and tells Jimmie to drive the RV around the back of the burning barn to see if Rick and Carl are back there.
The RV pulls up and Rick and his son leap onto its roof. As they clamber to safety, zombies reach into the RV and attack poor Jimmie. They tear at his flesh viciously. And sort of sexually? Rick shoots at the zombies. The Still Alive motorcade wheels donuts around the perimeter of the farm fence, shooting zombies as quickly and shockingly accurately! Rick and Carl flee into the woods. Hershel and his shotgun defend the house. The women take off and a zombie grabs Patricia as Beth struggles to pull her free.
Lori drags Beth away as Patricia goes down. More zombies chase Carol and she runs away. Andrea and T-dog screech to a halt and Lori drags Beth into their truck. T-dog and the other ladies are almost overcome by walkers and they drive off. The herd traps Glenn and Maggie so they flee with their car in reverse. Hershel keeps on shooting until he is out of ammo. Just as Hershel is about to be eaten, Rick pops out of nowhere and saves his life. Rick tries to lead Hershel away.
Not anymore. Daryl watches the barn burn. Please be aware that spoilers are not allowed on the wiki and a violation of this policy may result in a ban. Thank you. It seems too simple to say that Otis picked up Sophia and put her in the barn, then got shot by Shane before he could tell anyone.
For this to be true, Sophia has to be bitten almost immediately after Rick leaves her. She then has to wander near Otis to be found, and then captured and put in the barn. Based on the tracks Daryl followed, she was heading back to the road, then changed direction. Maybe she ran from a walker, got bit and escaped with her neck bitten. Maybe it was the Walker that Rick and Daryl autopysied?? She runs to the abandoned house and sleeps in the cupboard.
