I can not forgive this scene. Okay fine, maybe I've been a bit too critical of the other stuff but that episode's writing was terrible.
Using Glenn as live bait when there were animals on the farm and securing him to a rusty pole was one thing. It adds suspense despite being absolute terrible decision making by the characters, I get it.
The biggest problem was the idea that they would risk Glenn's life to remove the zombie so the water wouldn't be contaminated. That was the whole idea. But the zombie had been soaking in there for who knows how long. He's a zombie, he probably had lacerations prior to falling in, if he didn't he certainly did after falling. That water was contaminated by the zombie juice they were afraid of drinking long before they got it out. Should have thrown a brick down, permanently closed the well and call it a day.
And I understand many other fans would rather just discuss the episodes instead of the writing (although I believe they go hand in hand) so I'll refrain from similar posts like this later, just wanted to get that stupid well zombie off my chest again. Last time I swear :P
