That's exactly what I thought! At first I thought it was going to be right then & there, but then I realized they weren't set-up for it, arena-wise, like in the previous walker/wwf smackdown episode.

Couple observations in the 'sneak-peak' as well ... I think I saw Daryl in the woods, so whatever is going to happen, I think he makes it out of whatever jam he finds himself in with Merle. Also saw Beth give Rick a kiss on the cheek ... I find this significant because in the mid-season finale we saw that mousy convict coming onto Beth, so they let us know she's 17 & becoming an adult ... we also saw young Carl turning into a jr. bad-ass and he's had a connection to Beth all season ... in light of that kiss in the sneak-peek, I'm predicting Rick becomes somehow involved with Beth to the extent it causes some sort of conflict with his son, Carl, in Season 4 ... how's that for intrigue, eh? The Governor will be attacking the prison also, someone's gotta' off that m'fer ... February can't come soon enough, .
