Talk:Four Horsemen (Jericho)

The brother said 4 tanks. Thats a platoon, not a battalion.


 * He actually said 5 tanks.

My loose translation of the Chinese...

(intelligible, possibly Canada)...Los Angeles... (possibly San Francisco)...news... we know the folllowing.....Dallas.... Los Angeles

Someone want to confirm or improve?

I guess i heard: our attack was succesful

as with the page on the Pilot episode, does anyone want to speculate the power of the nuclear blasts going off the height of the cloud witnessed by the airline pilot? did he say 16000 ft over denver? Kommando 16:14, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

Isn't it weird that nobody thought it was weird that people in contact with the "contaminated" rain didn't get radiation sickness? My guess would be that the Dallas bomb must have been a neutron bomb. Supposedly, radioactive fallout fom such bombs decays within 24 hours and is no longer dangerous. Nobody mentioned this in the show though.

Would it be correct to mention here that the drum that Hawkins is seen moving is one of the bombs? This is revealed in "The Day Before". Cntrlwiz 02:06, 26 February 2007 (UTC)


 * Yes, the lack of consequences from the fallout is very weird. In fact, there is plenty of evidence that the rain didn't have any fallout after all. The geiger counter didn't read any radioctivity when they came out of the shelter, they didn't remove 18 inches of topsoil from all the farms (as Hawkins recommends in the previous episode) and they go ahead and harvest the corn in later episodes, the kids in the house didn't get radiation sickness (a wooden house makes a lousy fallout shelter), nobody ever seems to worry about radioactive dust again... I'm not sure if all this is intentional on the part of the writers or if it is just bad tv science. Surlyben 08:27, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
