Season 4 - What is Tyreese looking at in the trailer?

I hope everyone has seen the Comic-Con trailer regarding season four of The Walking Dead.  If not, here it is:



In the trailer, at exactly 2:13, we see Tyreese looking at something, and he looks a mix between shocked and emotional.

At around two minutes, we see Tyreese walking out to a section of the prison where Rick chased after Andrew last season after he killed Tomas.  There are also two gas containers nearby.  Then at 2:13 in the trailer, Tyreese seems to discover something.  We also see Tyreese pushing Daryl up against a wall later in the trailer and then turning around and punching Rick.

There's a few different possibilities as to what Tyreese could have seen.  I think what he sees has something to do with his fight with Rick.  He also says, "We have to find who did this."  He's referring to the cell block being attacked by someone on the inside, and that sounds personal.

Having said all that, I think that Tyreese gets emotional after coming across his sister, Sasha, who is dying right in front of him.  There's also a scene in the trailer with her where it looks like Sasha is on the ground and her hand is pressed against the camera (3:51).  Tyreese also comes across a blood trail that leads to a place with light (2:00), so maybe Sasha was bleeding and crawled outside and then he finds her dead.

It also seems like they're setting Sasha up to be bossy in the beginning like at the Big Spot in the trailer when she's giving orders.  From what I've seen of her so far, I don't really care for her that much and I don't like her giving orders to others.  So maybe that's where they're going, but that seems a bit predictable and as a result, they may just go in a whole different direction to make it more surprising.

It could just be some random kids because if you see a kid being mutilated or eaten alive, Tyreese could garner that reaction that we see in the trailer.  There's probably something that I haven't thought of or maybe another character could be in that spot, but judging by the emotional response of Tyreese, I think my theory with Sasha makes the most sense.

Tell me what you guys think Tyreese sees.  Who/What do you think he stumbles upon? What are the circumstances? If you think it's a certain person or you have your own theory, tell me what it is and explain in the comments below.

Season 4 - Analyzing the Comic-Con Trailer + Predictions (PART 1)

If you haven't seen the trailer for season four of The Walking Dead, I highly recommend watching it before reading any further!



"We just lost 12 of our own. Two were killed in cold blood."

They even tell us in the trailer how many people are going to die in season four, but there will probably be even more deaths then that.

AMC finally released an extended trailer for the upcoming season and we can make a lot of predictions just from watching this 4.5 minute video.  I've already watched it 18 times, so I have a lot of predictions and thoughts about season four.

Let's start with the raid on the "Big Spot" department store.  It looks like the prison group have gotten used to scavenging for food.  They even have their own formations and armor for protection. 

AnalysisOne thing that bothered me was seeing Sasha give orders to others.  She's only alive because of Tyreese and I just can't imagine Daryl or Michonne taking orders from someone like that.  So I already don't like Sasha.  We also see the first appearance of new character Bob Stookey, and we see a lot of him throughout the trailer.  There's also some yelling and gunfire in the Big Spot, so maybe this new character won't be around for very long.

Next, we see the prison, which has transformed into a farm with crops and even animals.  I saw some pigs, which are probably used for meat.  The group also made a new gate and it looks like Rick took a page out of Morgan's book with the sharp wooden beams surrounding the entrance.  Later in the trailer, we also see some sharp weapons hanging on the fence, ready for action at any time.

AnalysisWhat's not to love about seeing Michonne on a horse?  I'm actually really impressed about the prison and how it looks in the trailer.  Looks like they're using the same tactics as last season when it comes to killing walkers on the outside.  But as we find out from Carol, the zombies are starting to come in bigger groups.  She says to Daryl, "It's manageable, but unless we get ahead of it, not for long."

The violence came very early on in comic book series, and it looks like a version of this violence will be coming to the television show.  Walkers are seen attacking cell block D, which looks like the home of many new people in the prison.  Rick says after the attack, "Somebody attacked the cell block." Tyreese notes at another point, "We've got to find who did this." Rick responds, "We're not going anywhere, we'll find them." Hershel: "We just lost 12 of our own. Two of them were killed in cold blood."

Analysis: Who could possibly be behind this? It could be the Governor because he's familiar with the prison and will be a season regular.  But based on quotes from other characters, specifically Hershel, I have a feeling that this attack came from within the prison.  Could it be one of the people from Woodbury, or could it be someone from the main cast?  Don't be surprised if it ends up being Carl who does this.  Think about it.  Carl was pissed about having all the new people move in because they won't be able to defend themselves.  Thus, he lures the walkers into the prison and eliminates the people in cell block D.

"You got to calm down."  A big part in the comic book series was the fight between Rick and Tyreese, and it looks like we got a little preview of that in the trailer. It looks like Tyreese had Daryl pinned against a wall and then started a fight with Rick.  But why did Tyreese start the fight?

Analysis: Tyreese won in the comic book series, but towards the end of the trailer, we see that his eye is swollen.  This leads me to believe that Rick will win the fight in the television series.  To answer the question of why he started the fight, we did see him looking down at something about halfway through the trailer.  He looked to be getting emotional, which makes me think that someone very close to him died, most likely Sasha, his sister. 

PART 2 IS ON THE WAY...

Season 4 - Tyreese, Sasha, and Beth promoted to series regulars

With all the new additions to the prison group in the season three finale, three characters have been promoted to season four regulars: Chad L. Coleman (Tyreese), Sonequa Martin-Green (Sasha), and Emily Kinney (Beth).

We knew from the start that Tyreese would transition into having a bigger role in the series, and he did get some pretty good air time, especially in the season finale.  He played a crucial role in that final episode, allowing Rick and the others into Woodbury.

I think we can expect to see Tyreese possibly bump heads with Rick and possibly return a few storylines from the comic books.  The reason I think that is because Rick is the leader in the comic book series, but Tyreese was the leader of his own small (and now even smaller) group.  I hope we get to see a scene from the comic books where Tyreese and Rick have a fist-fight and I would love to see who gets the better in the television series.

As for Tyreese's sister, Sasha, I guess she's alright as a character.  She didn't really have that big of a role in the comic book series and I don't expect her to survive past season four in the television series.  Unless they really develop her more then they did in the comic books, I wouldn't really know what to do with her.  I think they'll probably keep Sasha around until the mid-season finale or kill her towards the end of the season after we get to know her a little better.

Last, but not least, we have Beth.  I think she deserves the promotion because she's been around since season two.  She hasn't really done much other then sing and take care of baby Judith.  So it will be interesting what storylines they come up with for her, maybe spark some kind of an interest between her and Carl or something like that.  I think that would make sense because Carl kind of has a crush on her, he's real dark and she doesn't accept it.  Beth will probably die sometime during season four, maybe have someone from the Governor's army kill her. Just please don't have her sing again!

I'm interested in seeing what will happen with Tyreese, but I don't really care what happens with the other two.  I think you have to give Beth and Sasha a bigger role if you're going to kill them off because I think that was a big mistake in season three when they didn't give IronE Singleton (T-Dog) a bigger role before he died.  He was around since the beginning, we never really got to know him and he never was developed.  When he died, I was like, "Oh, I really missed the way you just stood there in the background."  So hopefully, they'll develop Beth and Sasha before they die, at least in my opinion anyway.
