What man is supposed to be the focus of the pain of her death? TARA is the one who's going to be hurting. :(

I thought her death was actually really meaningful in its meaninglessness, if that makes any sense at all. She was just coming into her own in the post-Apocalyptic world, realizing what she needed to do to survive, starting to really contribute and help the others, too - and she was utterly randomly taken out by a bad guy's bad AIM and simply standing in the wrong place at the wrong time.

The idea being that you can do everything right, grow and learn and be strong and TRY to survive in all the right ways, and STILL not make it in this world. Just a hair's breadth difference in aim and it would have been Daryl dead, not Denise. :/

I love this explanation of her death's significance, and you should be proud of coming up with it. I think that's true not just in the zombie apocalypse but in real life too. Not everyone leaves this world realizing their full potential, and as sobering as that is, it's also very true.

This also reminds me why I took to Noah so much, even though his well-meant attempts at helping and such had more mortal consequences than Denise's.

Thanks :)

Aww, Noah. :( His death broke my heart, too, and he was also just starting to be able to function in the world of TWD when he died, senselessly.

I've pretty much come to accept that literally everyone on this show is expendable. It's the nature of the show. And - I really don't mind that, it keeps the storytelling compelling and raises the stakes.

Her death was terribly hamfisted. No doctor with any sense would feel like they're not valuable because they're not fighting and feel the need to go out and "prove" them self. they essentially made her stupid for the sake of plot convenience.

Humans beings aren't perfectly rational and she was in an environment that, thanks to Rick's influence, valued survival skills more than other passive skills and seeing everyone fighting while she stayed back affected her.

As stupid that may be, because she was the only doctor, it's pretty understandable.

Plus, maybe she was still insecure about being a doctor???? Denise may have saved Carl, but we can't toss out the fact how anxious she was on the show. And if she's so insecure all the time, maybe she just wanted to prove herself and figured she'd be safe with the two experts?
