‘The Walking Dead’ Episode 814 recap

Jadis returns to the Heaps with Negan in tow. Her instinct seems to be to beat him to death with his own bat, but she doesn't. He spends much of their (lengthy) time together insisting that he didn't know or sanction the murder of the trash people. It is interesting because this just furthers Negan's path to humanity.

‘Constantine’ Season 1 finale

A young girl, Vesta, runs away from home and is hanging out at an abandoned carnival when she is approached by three girls in chaste, old-fashioned gowns. The girls remind me of a mix between Dracula’s brides and fundamentalists: good girls with a brainwashed look in their eyes. The girls chat up Vesta, and tell her about how they don’t have any rules because they are married to The Man. They ask if Vesta wants to marry The Man as well, and show off their “wedding rings” – bruises around their necks. So clearly, these girls are dead, and Vesta is an idiot because this doesn’t scare her away…(cont)
