Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe title comes from Volume 6 of the Collected Editions of the comic book series. In said volume, Rick, Glenn, and Michonne, having been captured by the Governor upon their first meeting in Volume 5, escape from Woodbury and make it back to the prison.
- GoofsThe car that Merle and Michonne get in to at the motel has looks to be 22'' wheels on it. When Merle get to where he is going with the walkers, just before he jumps out of the car you can plainly see the car has "stock" wheels on it, and when he jumps the car is back to having the custom wheels back on it.
- Quotes
Merle Dixon: I don't know the reasons for the things that I do. Never did. I'm a damn mystery to me.

Featured review
Choices in Life
Rick discloses to Herschel and Daryl that the Governor proposed a peace treaty provided Rick delivers Michonne to him. Rick decides to betray Michonne and asks Merle to do the dirty work, but he regrets. However Merle has already abducted Michonne and heads with her to Woodbury. Along their journey, Michonne questions his attitude and tells to Merle that never is too late to be back on track. Merle is surprisingly affected by Michonne's words and takes an unexpected decision.
"This Sorrowful Life" is one of the best episodes of this Third Season about choices in life and centered on Merle, with characters making choices along the show. Rick decides to double-cross Michonne; Daryl and Herschel accepts the decision of their leader without any argument; Merle makes his choice regarding Michonne. This rude and brutal character has a surprising redemption affected by simple words that probably made him think that he could have another chance in his miserable life after "a whole lot of maybes". Michonne surprisingly reaches the heart of his forgotten feelings with her calm conversation. Daryl's reaction in the end of the episode is heartbreaking and Rick is getting more and more deceptive with his disappointing decisions. My vote is nine.
Title (Brazil): "This Sorrowful Life"
Note: On 13 April 2016, I saw this show again.
