Why I liked it: Wayward Pines Episode 7
Everyone! I just finished Mr. Robot. Wow, is that a good show.
Anyway, back to Wayward PInes.
Wayward PInes! Episode 7. Also known as âWill the Female Abbie do ANYTHING this episode?â
Interesting. We get a recap of why Wayward Pines is here. An introduction. As if I forgot after 7 episodes what Wayward Pines was. Hey, I am enjoying this show, but let's face it. No one just joins at the 7th episode!
April 19, 2034 (The Past):
OH Snap! CJ, the crop man awakens! Why? Hmm...it seems there is a gym and a place for him to work. Ooo, he has control of everyone's chamber. He keeps them clean and tidys up around the place. Now he is playing a game of chess...perhaps it will be a game played over 2000 years? He watches the world destroy itself on 9 televisions. A virus is destroying the earth. Watches the sunsetâŚ
Asks âWas it a mistake?â
And freezes himself again.
What an AWESOME OPENING, YOU GUYS.
Yedlin has come for the female. He looks for the âbrand on her palmâ a tip we heard about last episode.
Yedlin YELLS at Megan - like âHey dude, you are stupid. This female is here for some reason and youâve had her here for how long? We need to communicate!â
Megan tries to be human for a second and apologize for Yedlin's wife marrying someone else. She has no people skills.
Yedlin starts training this female AbbieâŚ.Trying to teach her what basically is another language in 3 minutes. 4 words: Yes, No, Friend, Leader. He makes a good point. When you are in another country you can tell who is in charge, who is a good person, etc. I believe that.
CJ wakes again. Things are dustier...itâs 2514. He exercises, he makes a move on his chessboard. He puts a coin in a jar. He starts talking to the files as if they were people. He checks the TVs. There are 2 channels. There is only 1 radio station.
CJ takes a hike around outside to take samples and do his due diligence. A human with clothing surprises him. He speaks English. His name is Griffin. They talk:
âWhere do you come from?â
âThe west is destroyedâ
âYes...it used to be beautifulâ
âHave you lost someone?â
âHasnât everyone?â
BOOM. Griffin catches a fish with his bare hands. They cook the fish and Griffin has some sort of nightmare. CJ does the right thing and GETS THE FUCK OUT.
Griffin finds him! Griffin needs help! CJ canât help him...and has no other choice but to...KILL HIM? WTF DUDE?
CJ says âAll I can save you from is what's coming nextâ
Wow...this episode, you guys.
FUTURE:
Megan thinks it's dumb luck that the female might be able to talk. So Yedlin says, give her a treat. She hands the female the treat and she points to the other Abbies. âGive it to THEMâ.
Yedlin says âSheâs putting the lessers above herselfâ...which means she's THE LEADER? SHIT. YES.
Yedlin tries to convince Megan that the Abbies have the numbers, they know what theyâre doing, and they will win.
CJ wakes up. Heâs much more tired this time. No radio stations. Looks at his calendar chalkboard...it's 3215âŚ.WOW. Heâs been waking up every 30 years or something like that. Things are much more quiet. He doesnât open the windows. His chess game is almost done. He imagines his wife...awww heâs been playing chess against his wife this whole time. He asks if it's âtime to goâ with his wife. She says âyou canât come with me, you have miles to goâ. She says âit's your job to be hereâ. He doesnât want to be alone. He second guesses himself.
You guys, if the fireworks werenât going off outside I would be super into that scene.
Adam runs into the laboratory. âGet her out of here!â He says that the Abbies are growing in numbers outside and they need to release her right now.
Megan is, of course, real dumb about this and goes to the 20 year old to make a decision.
Yedlin says âIâm on your side, Iâm trying to understand themâ
Adam says âYouâre too lateâ
CJ puts the last coin into the jar. Its 4014. Heâs reached the end. He has dressed up. It's time to waken the people. Pilcher is there (jerk) and wonders if it's time to begin the construction. He says (with wonder) âI can only imagine what youâve seenâ like it's been fun and games this whole time. They walk out to the new world and it is beautiful. Pilcher sees a stick house. And an Abbie, who probably lives in the stick house. Pilcher thinks the virus should have killed everyone off by now, and orders that they just build their town on the Abbies settlement. Pilcher is basically like âaaah, no big deal, theyâre stupid and we have gunsâ. HUMANS, UGH.
Everyone is back in the laboratory. Jason doesnât understand why the Abbies have such beef with them.
The Female Abbie was THERE when Pilcher said to build the town on the settlement! Oh, she has a past grievance with them!
OH man. Carrie, is on the right side (which means she's sensible) and she says that we should somehow negotiate. Megan says âNo, young lady, you werenât even here when we started and youâre supposed to be a baby-maker not a person with a brain!â (I mean, basically)
CJ isnât participating in the welcome back picnic. Megan is like âcome on man, it's a new world!â CJ lays it out straight âI was there when the world fell, bitchâ. He is having a hard time because he has a conscience and they destroyed a community just to build up another one.
Weâre back at the part when the Female Abbie first gets into Wayward Pines. CJ sees people rioting. He sits down and startsâŚ.planning? Something?
Yedlin tries to tell the Female Abbie that Jason is the leader. He is talking to her and she responds. She points to Yedlin. Jason freaks out because nothing is working.
Yedlin wants the Abbie to understand that he is a friend. He backs up towards the other cages and unlocks one of the vicious Abbies. The Abbie attacks Yedlin! The Female Abbie screams and he stops attacking Yedlin!
AND THEN JASON SHOOTS ALL THE ABBIES BUT THE FEMALE. WHY IS HE THE LEADER OF WAYWARD PINES?
Carrie tells Jason that he needs to stop. But everything is ruined already, so what the hell.
Adam puts it plainly: âHere we are, at the end of days, and we canât even take care of ourselvesâ
Megan is dumb again: âI donât remember the old days, I canât remember all of that, but Iâm super excited that Iâm here la la laâ
Yedlin rolls his eyes: âThe only animal in here was Jason.â
Megan: âI wonât believe anything about how they are related to us because Iâm blah blah blahâ
Yedlin: âIâm going to take a showerâ He grabs the gun and has a super crazy look in his eye.
Jason and Carrie go to CJ to ask if they had awoken too soon. CJ donât give a fuck.
Oh boyâŚ.Megan is at the computer and gets dizzy..Her calf has been sliced open!!  (She didnât know because sheâs paralyzed) Sheâs bleeding out! How did that happen!? IT WAS THE FEMALE ABBIE! Yedlin somehow let her out when he went into the other cage!
YES! YESSSSSSS SHE KILLED MEGAN! Oh, that woman was getting on my nerves.
Now the Female Abbie is loose in Wayward PInesâŚâŚ..
