Officially, Laurent probably told her.

Dépaysant. A change of scenery. Going outside oneself comfort zone. Doing something or going somewhere foreign to you.

Daryl wants more aside from running and fighting (even though he admitted in the season 3 finale that he always feels the need to 'Go' when he hears that voice.)

Dépaysant, I conjecture, is more about self-discovery for Daryl and self-love/self-forgiveness for Carol.

If you are an alleged Caryler and think you have license to bully those who commit the heinous crime of having a different opinion from yours or view the show from another angle. The angle that isn't up the showrunner or actors' behinds.

Calling me out of my name will get you reported, blocked and (hopefully) removed.

I don't care if you believe the actor Norman Reedus to be anti-Caryl, anti-Carol, anti-Melissa McBride, or anti anything that doesn't center him and his beloved character, Daryl Dixon.

I get it. You think you cracked the code. That you're some unsung, woebegone prophet who's trying to warn Carylers who these people "truly: are. You pieced it all together that Caryl is destroyed and it was always by design. Okay, so show yourselves the proverbial door. Stop hanging out like a foul odor haunting the place after the body is gone.

OR

Remain on your side of the Caryl fence. Stop coming over here to pitch your "facts and findings" to an audience who enjoys the Caryl relationship and the spinoff. I am not buying what you're selling. I'm not interested in what you're selling. And if you are using my little platform to be a wormtongue to other genuine Carylers by leaving dissenting remarks on my posts, get a life. It is insane to keep interacting with people whom you know don't agree with you. It isn't my fault your food supply runs on things that can't actually be proven, so you hound Carylers like myself to make yourself sound correct. That is pathetic.

You are the delusional ones if you dislike Norman Reedus, David Zabel and the patriarchal circle of friends, but you keep watching a show they have influence in. That is the height of insanity. As though you are addicted to expressing your disdain for them. You can't get enough of it. Like that is your legit online identity now. As the kids today say, "love that for you." Here's a challenge for you to attempt at your own risk: try staying on your own page with that and leave Carylers like myself who love the Atlanta Two, alone.

You are delusional twice over if you also think that just because someone online tells me something about Caryl or the cast from a source also found online, I am supposed to, I don't know? Take your word for it. When your bias is palpable. Only a fool does that.

Lastly, criticism for the spinoff or the characters? Love it. Welcome it. I agree with plenty of it. You can't be fan of the original TWD and not have a critic's bone in you. I am not talking to the Carylers who have valid critiques of the show.

Now to the Carylers in name only,

I got one thing from this episode so far.

When Daryl confides in Carol that he is afraid of hearing that voice telling him to 'go' again once they get home and Carol responds: "Maybe you won't." Daryl looks right at Carol, long and deliberately, and replies: "Maybe".

So don’t go into tonight’s episode expecting comfort. Go in expecting context. It’s not about what you’ll see, but what it sets in motion. Think Isabelle all over again. Romantic release before the fallout of consequences from the character's choices against the antagonistic forces. Literally.
