The Master has his new body. Bound to be someone we know.


Eichorst is acting a little strangely. Like he's not quite himself.

We're not seeing Zack at all.

Or Kelly.

Palmer could be feigning weakness (though I think he'd have killed Abe before that meeting was over, so probably not).

Any other possibilities?

I've read ABOUT the novels, but they've made so many changes, that doesn't automatically mean anything. Bolivar was still The Master's host body in the final book. They want to keep us guessing.

If you're guessing what I think you're guessing, that would be about as dark a season finale as I've ever seen.

Hey, this kind of story, if everybody isn't dead at the end, that's a positive note.

Can't imagine why.

I haven't read the books but I am guessing that the new host will be Zach???

but why does he want ZACK? grooming him. he might be a decade before he develops into a strong young man and all that entails

That's what figured. when they kidnapped Zach and didn't turn hi or kill him. I figured they were going to let the Master get into Zach's body, have Zach reunited with Eph to get close to Sakarian and the Lumen. They know Eph can't kill Zach and if Zach shows no symptoms he can fool the others as well.

I didn't read any of the books so I don't really know what's going to happen. That's just my speculation.

After last night's episode, it's looking more and more likely that it's no one we know:

Eph, Dutch, Fet, Feraldo, Kowalski, Gus, Angel, and Zach are all still human. Eichorst and Kelly don't seem any different.

Maybe he's in the blind girl they gave to Zach, so Zach could unknowingly build a bond with him?

its going to be the head of the navy seals. He's listed on the imdb website as being in one of the upcoming episodes and the seals were near the master when the worm went down the sewer. He's a able body with skills that the master can harness so it makes sense.

In the books, it's Zach and it might be Zach in the season 3 finaleMe and my mom watch the show and I might start placing the bets already
