No...Jim took several days when he was scratched. If prune face just scratched Bob, it's still possible.
Bob's got to be done for, right? But that would be crazy if they found out he was immune. (Maybe he'll tell the termites that he was bitten and now they are eating him?) And also, Beth is good lookin', she must get back on this show immediately.

Would.
Come ON, guys...they have to have something going on between the ears! I dislike her almost as much as the rest of you dislike Carl.
Fine. Let's kill off Beth.
Shes not dead? SPOILER ALERTS! Gahhh KC you're just mean....:yes:
Gonna put my two-cents in on this too. I thought at first when Bob went outside to have a good cry that he had been bitten too. But it makes more sense to me that he was part of the cannibal group before he joined Rick's group. He was always very vague about where he came from, other than to say he was with a group that sort of went to hell. Also, last season, Bob was reluctant to go to Terminus and, in fact, ran off at one point by himself before he was finally convinced to go and I think he agreed to go to protect the sister (or he was forming an attachment to her) more than anything.
In my opinion, he didn't say "no there are cannibals there," because then he would have had to explain how he knew that and that he too had been a cannibal with them.
What convinced me that this is the right scenario was the end of the show when Bob regains consciousness and the cannibals are calling him Bob. How did they know his name? They wouldn't care what his name was when they captured him at Terminus. Would you want to know the name of your food? Would you take the time to get to know the names of all the people you had just captured if you knew you were just going to kill them soon? I don't think they knew the names of any of Rick's group, but they knew Bob's name.
Also, the head cannibal said something very strange to Bob. When he was explaining (yet again) why they do what they do and then said something like (paraphrasing from a bad memory), it's just ironic and some sort of poetic justice that it's YOU who is in this situation right now.
A cannibal being eaten by cannibals? That's what I took from that statement. And the crying earlier? He was feeling guilty that he didn't say something sooner and warn the group to avoid Terminus in the first place.
And why walk into Terminus when you know that's what they do? Because he knew them and thought he could talk his way out of seeing him and his group wind up on the dinner table. And maybe he thought that when the group saw what kind of place it was, they would just be able to walk away.

Kind of reminds me of my grandfather. He was a glutton. He'd go to bed with a thigh in one hand and a breast in the other, then wake up an hour later and want a piece.
cute:
Ill back you up. Beth really isn't my type. More than Andrea and Carroll but that's about it. But Andrea in the comics is way cooler, she's more like a hot chick with Daryl's role.

I think your grandpa was talking about banging your grandma.
Ok then. If the zombie transformation can take longer than just a few short hours I think he was bitten, asked for one last kiss and went outside to kill himself. Now he's just coasting along until he is a zombie while the cannibals eat him. That still leaves my question I asked earlier. I wonder if eating zombie meat will infect you.
I am kind of going the opposite - I think Bob may have been with the group that attacked good Terminus and turned them into murdering cannibals. When the Terminus folks somehow broke free and regained power, Bob was one that got away. Or maybe Bob was not as bad as the others and he was one that helped the Terminus folks break free but he moved on before he know that the Terminus folks went cannibal over the whole thing.
They are all infected in that when they die it takes over, but somehow zombie bites infect and kill you fast. Seems like the more severe you're chewed into the faster it happens.
acute vs latent infections.
Another thought - if he is immune, that may mean he's carrying an acute infection load that just hasn't managed to kill him. If ingesting zombie meat transmits an acute infection, will ingesting him do the same?
You have to die first to turn into a zombie. It would take a while to die from one zombie bite. And all the people alive are infected anyway. If they now say that eating the meat of someone bitten by a zombie will turn you into a zombie too, they are changing the story. Because they've already been eating the meat of people who had the zombie infection, since everyone now has it, even if they aren't bitten. They just have to die to turn into a zombie, bite or no bite.
