But this is also the same guy who cut off his own hand so he may not have been in his right mind to even think of his brother.

His brother was also going out in the woods by himself hunting for food. He probably figured his brother was tough enough and smart enough to get out of game unharmed.

I thought the zombies smelled them and went up the mountain. There was one zombie that managed to get up there before. These are probably the smartest zombies ever as well. They seem to be alerted by sound, smell, and just live people more than any other zombies in past movies.

That would be interesting and build alot of character depth. I just hope we see the prison and Tyrese.

True, but it's very possible that he saw them drive up in the van (after all it did disappear) and therefore knew his brother wasn't in the camp.

Good point, because I had the same thought as Scott about this. Although if he saw his brother in the city with the guys responsible for leaving him handcuffed on the roof, I don't think he'd just leave him with them stranded in the city.

To me that would be the logical answer instead of they just walked up there. I mean how else could that many zombies get up to the top of the hill or even know to climb the hill to get at the camp?

But then again would he release them on the camp where his brother is also staying?

It didn't look like there was a sliding door, i'll have to check when i get home but i'm sure the truck was just all open inside and had very easy access to the drivers seat?

They are walkers, they could have been following Glenn from when he drove the car back to camp with the alarm going off? You can see the city in the background of where the camp site is in a lot of shots and they look insanly close, was just a matter of time until some of that city full of zombies came across their path i think?

I guess we will find out over the next two ep's

I wasn't surprised that so many made it up there, they had set up that one that made it up there already. If they're able to climb ladders and fences, going up a mountain is not a stretch. Plus they didn't run right up there, I'm sure it took them time to make their way up. And with all the noise, and the fires etc. It was like the welcome sign was lit up.

Tell you what, if I were in their situation I'd try and find a boat to setup in the middle of that quarry. Safest place to be would be on water IMO. Just being in the woods and away from civilization isn't enough.
