Before I start my rant, I want to apologize if I hurt anyone's feelings with autism (IWMT). So I was fine with Sarah back in Episodes 1 and 2. She's just a girl that's been for the past two years sheltered from the majority of the horrors of the ZA. My hatred for her started in Episode 3 though soI guess I'll put the rest in spoilers. First off, did she really need to talk wile Carver was giving his speech in the beginning. I tried my best to make her shut up, but she just kept on going. She deserved that slap IMO. I was almost tempted to not help her with chores, but decided to anyway so that she'd maybe stop being annoying. Secondly, I don't care what anyone said, SHE GOT REGGIE KILLED. If she could've gotten her shit together, both her and Clem would be able to get their work done and Reggie would live indefinitely. And finally, the ending. SERIOUSLY?! You see your father die right in front of you, and while I can sympasize with how traumatic that must be, She really needed to just SHUT THE FUCK UP. I mean Clem had to literally KILL HER FATHER FIGURE FOR CHRISSAKE. Because of that, now Sarita's got one less arm. Now I know some of you will be like "Oh it's justifiable because who's autistic", BUT IT'S NOT OKAY! About three girls in my grade are autistic as well an they could DEFINITELY HOLD THEIR SHIT TOGETHER. I swear I would've killed her right at the end if I got the chance, so yeah. FUCK. SARAH.

Well said, Sonic. I don't like Sarah either. I was never a big fan of her, but she started to really annoy me in episode 3. I told her to be quiet, while she started talking during Carver's speech, but she didn't shut up. Then she got a punishment, which could've been way worse, considering carver is a psycho. But because of that she couldn't do the simplest job she could get, which resulted in Reggie's death. And in the end, she almost got everyone killed. Sarita will probably die because of that. I know that she saw her father dying, but screaming wouldn't help anyone.

WHAT? I don't know if she is autistic, I don't know, there are a huge amount of variations of autism so you know, I think she just is really sheltered and prone to having panic attacks, I don't judge her for losing it when Carlos died, I didn't expect it, she had never been beaten in her own life, it was a complete shock, so I get the not trimming the plant, only thing you got is the talking to much, and I talk to much, I mean look at my posts, anyway I defend her with my life, she is the new Clem with a mix of Duck, and I am okay with it.

Well, you can't really expect a girl who just saw her father being shot and eaten by walkers to be calm, plus he was the only thing Sarah ever had as family. I don't hate Sarah and she is one of my favorite characters. She really reminds me of how Clem was in season 1. To be fair, I don't think most of us would be calm if we saw one of our loves ones getting shot and eaten by walkers.

Clem wasn't like that in season 1. She wouldn't keep talking, if Lee told her to pay attention to Carber's speech. And when she saw her own parents as walkers, she didn't scream like Sarah did. She froze, but knew that screaming would get her and Lee killed. And she was 9 back then.

More like a mix of Clem and Duck, and to be fair I did like Duck, she is a personal favorite, good friend, hope she is okay.

Well the average child is not like Clem, Sarah is more like a slightly older, less badass version of Clem mixed with a bit of Duck, there you go.

Well, Clem was more mature and it would be kinda unrealistic if every kid in the Walking Dead would be like Clem. You can't expect every kid to be like Clem. Hell, I bet other adults like Lilly, Kenny or Omid would scream too if Lilly saw Larry getting eaten, Kenny with Katjaa and Duck and Omid with Christa.

I wouldn't even be mad at her for screaming in the end, if she acted different earlier in the episode. I just had enough of her at that point. Also, slightly older than Clementine? She's fifteen. I think that's enough age to expect her to act more mature.

I am having flashbacks to people hating on Duck, you don't see that anymore. Anyway, I think all this hate is unneeded, she did screw up several times, but they are understandable.

Carver got one thing right last episode. Kinda.
"They are weak, and we are strong, and it's up to us to shepherd the herd."
I can't say I really like Sarah. But keeping her alive is the best way I can lift a middle finger to what carver meant when he said that line. He interpreted that as ruthless pragmatism. I see that line, and I think it's the responsibility of people to take care of those who can't take care of themselves.
That's my two cents anyways.

He is right though sadly, people like him survive because he is willing to do anything to survive, and yes Sarah is not the strongest member of the group, damn it, now I have sworn to protect both Nick AND Sarah, for both Pete and Carlos.
