Episode 3 Easter Egg
I don't know if you guys noticed this, but I think the music that was playing behind the Howes CD Clem put on the speaker was the music from Bosco's Inconvenience Store in Sam and Max.

Anyone else notice any other easter eggs?
I don't know if you've noticed. but there was a time in the episode when the walkers invade the store where you, Kenny and that black guy are. the last walker that tries to get you laughs at you...
When Tavia is talking to Hank on the walkie talkie, she calls the people in the yard "the prisoners" before quickly correcting herself and saying "the new people". This line really sent a shiver down my spine because the term "new people" was first coined by Pol Pot and his communist regime after they took over Cambodia in the 70's. They used the term to refer to those who "strayed from the flock" including anyone who openly talked shit on the government, lived in cities or just looked like they were smart (read: wore glasses).
Millions of these "new people" were herded out of the cities and into rural camps to be "rehabilitated". Between being starved, tortured, worked to death and getting hacked apart by the thousands in the Killing Fields, almost none of them survived.
I don't know if the reference was intentional or a coincidence, but it was creepy as fuck and really drove home the importance of escaping from Carver's little concentration camp.
that tape was in Crawford
and it seems like the tape was put there for a reason. like that wanted us to see it.
