Why does lori die

No actually. Because in one episode you can see Loris grave. Often they make a grave without the body. They did that for Carol when they thought she was dead, until Daryl found her in the prison's tombs. In the walking dead does lori die? Asked by: Betty Hyatt. Did Carl actually shoot Lori? Is Lori Grimes coming back? Is Lori's baby Shane's? Did Shane love Lori? Why did Lori say goodnight love? Why was Rick Crazy After Lori dies?

Why is Rick seeing his dead wife? What episode does Lori tell Rick she slept with Shane? What are the zombie actors eating in walking dead? With Rick's eventual return, she found herself filled with both extreme happiness and extreme guilt. She became torn between her husband and Shane; realizing they were both essential to her survival.

However, her actions continuously put Rick and Shane at odds, significantly more so with the revelation of her pregnancy. Throughout season two, she strove to ensure that her unborn child would be healthy, and wondered whether the baby should even be born into such a horrible world.

After the farm was overrun, she became deeply disturbed by Rick's actions, as well as Carl's involvement in the death of Shane. As the third season began, Rick started to shun her, something that pained her increasingly. However, Rick was devastated when he discovered that she died during childbirth. Lori showed herself to be a very selfless person when she faced her final moments of life, choosing baby Judith's life over her own, which she sacrificed with barely a second thought.

Lori lived and grew up in King County, Georgia. In high school, Lori met Rick Grimes , a fellow student. She also became friends with Rick's best friend, Shane Walsh.

Eventually, Lori and Rick fell in love with each other and became married. Together, they had a son named Carl. They lived as a typical suburban family in King County, Georgia. On Sundays, she made pancakes, despite the fact that she knew they were awful. Over time, their marriage became increasingly strained with Rick distancing himself from her.

His unwillingness to talk about his feelings and their problems resulted in fights, where harsh words were spoken by Lori.

It had even reached the point where she began to question his love for her and Carl. Days before the apocalypse, Lori confided in a friend, Paula , to ease the stress and seek advice.

Shortly after, Lori was told through Shane about Rick being shot and shared the news with Carl. Lori, along with Carl, Shane, and a bed-ridden Rick, still resided in King County when the outbreak occurred.

Lori tried for days to call her mother to see if she was okay but she never picked up - Lori assumed she had died in the outbreak. Two weeks into the outbreak, it got too dangerous to stay in King County and the military directed them to Atlanta where a safe-zone was established.

Before leaving, Shane tried to gather Rick from the hospital, but returned to Lori and Carl claiming that Rick had died.

On the road to Atlanta, Lori along with Carl and Shane were caught in a traffic gridlock. There, they met Carol Peletier , her husband Ed , and their daughter, Sophia. Lori and Shane became concerned when the radio for the safe-zone stopped playing and believed that they were turning people away - until they discovered that Atlanta had become overrun with the dead and was napalmed by the military for Operation Cobalt.

Along the side of the road was a quarry lake outside of Atlanta. As time progressed, Lori became extremely vulnerable and, believing Rick to be dead, began a sexual relationship with Shane.

After the apocalypse began, Lori sent a message to Shane telling him she was going to go check on Rick at the hospital. In a camp outside the city, a group of survivors, among them Shane, Lori and Carl, receive Rick's transmission. However, Lori and Shane don't recognize Rick's voice over the garbled transmission. Amy runs to the CB, but can't get a reply. By the time Shane takes over the CB controls and introduces himself, Rick has left the emergency broadcast channel. Lori voices that she's been saying for a week that they should put signs up on the highway warning people away from the city, and volunteers to go on her own, but Dale and Shane argue that venturing out is too risky.

Lori walks off and Shane goes after her. Inside her tent, Shane tells Lori that she needs to keep it together for Carl, who has lost so much already. Lori agrees and they kiss passionately, before Carl interrupts them, not seeing them kissing.

Lori promises him she's not going anywhere and tells her son to go finish his chores, watching him run off smiling. In the camp, Lori sits by a fire pit when Amy walks over carrying a red pail with a few mushrooms inside. She asks her how to tell if the mushrooms are poisonous, to which Lori replies they would have to eat one to know. Amy, unsatisfied with that method, tells Lori to ask Shane when he gets back.

Lori nods, before she excuses herself to look for more mushrooms in the forest. She tells Carl, who's playing in the dirt, to stay where Dale can see him.

Dale also tells Lori not to go too far, either. Lori heads into the forest alone, unnerved by the sounds of snapping branches and moving brush, while she bends down to search for more mushrooms. Suddenly, Shane sneaks up behind her, puts his hand over her mouth, and pulls her down to the ground. They stop momentarily when Lori notices Rick's wedding ring, which she's attached to her necklace. She takes the locket off and lays it on the grass.

The two then proceed to have sex. Later that day, Lori's doing laundry as Shane teaches Carl to tie knots. Suddenly, the radio crackles and squeaks, and T-Dog's garbled transmission comes through, explaining that they're trapped in the department store, surrounded by hundreds of walkers. Dale responds to the transmission but only radio silence follows. We do not risk the rest of the group," Shane insists. Amy argues that Andrea's life is at risk, but Shane tells her she's gone.

Amy is furious, exclaiming "That's my sister, you son-of-a-bitch! Lori follows to comfort her. In the camp, Lori gives Carl a haircut while Shane promises him that they will catch frogs at the quarry, so they can eat their legs. Lori expresses her disgust at the thought, while Shane tells her she'll be begging for more once she tastes them, then smiles while telling Carl, "We'll be heroes, son.

Shane and Carl, spoken of in song and legend. The rest of the group then arrives. Andrea and Amy tearfully reunite, as do Morales with his family. Carl becomes emotional and Lori leads him away. Rick emerges and recognizes Shane. The two trade stunned glances as Carl spots Rick and runs into his open arms. Lori stares at Rick, but she tearfully embraces her husband and son. She looks up at Shane, while she cries into Rick's shoulder. In the night, around a campfire, Rick describes the disorientation he felt waking up alone in the hospital.

Lori explains she was told Rick would be brought over to Atlanta, but it never happened. He then expresses immense gratitude to Shane for saving and taking care of his family. He then volunteers to deliver the news to Daryl Dixon about his brother, as does T-Dog, who is wracked with guilt for dropping the key. Later on, in their tent, Rick says goodnight to Carl and then takes Lori's hand as he crawls into bed with her. He tells her he knew she and Carl were alive because their photo albums were gone when he returned to their house.

Lori smiles and pulls one open. They reflect on their past mistakes and are grateful for the second chance that they have been given. Lori returns Rick's wedding ring, which had been removed when he was in the hospital, and the two discretely have sex. The next morning, Lori is doing the laundry when Rick tells her he keeps thinking about leaving Merle behind and he plans to return to Atlanta.

Lori is shocked, but their discussion is interrupted by screams. Lori runs to Carl and protects him. Later, Lori announces to Daryl that Rick's going back to rescue Merle. Lori pleas with Rick not to risk his life for a man like Merle. Rick explains to her that he also needs to collect his walkie-talkie from the bag so he can warn Morgan Jones away from the city.

He claims he owes them his life. He also explains to her that there are several guns and bullets in that bag that will help them an the people at the camp.

Lori gives up arguing, and Carl tells Rick he's okay with his reasons for going back to Atlanta. In their tent, Lori frets about Rick. Everything that's happened to him so far; nothing's killed him yet. Later on, Lori looks for Carl around the camp. Dale tells her he should be down at the quarry catching frogs. She heads down to the quarry where Shane is teaching Carl to catch frogs. Lori orders Carl to return to camp.

After he leaves, Shane tells her not to take it out on him, and Lori warns him to stay away from her family. You're the one that told me that he died.

Lori congratulates Andrea and Amy when they return to camp with several caught fish. Amy volunteers to teach Carl about knots and fishing, and Lori allows her to. When Jim is seen digging holes on top of the nearby hill, the group of survivors, including Lori, go to confront him.

Later, Lori is seen teaching school lessons to Carl and Sophia , while Jim is tied up nearby to prevent him from harming himself. At night, Lori joins the others for supper to eat the cooked fish. As they all chat, they soon are attacked by a group of walkers. Lori originally takes cover behind Shane, however when Rick returns from his city mission with Glenn , Daryl and T-Dog , Lori and Carl rush to embrace him instead.

Shane is visibly annoyed. Lori watches in horror as Andrea cradles Amy, who was killed by walkers. Distraught over the previous night's events, Lori is against Rick's idea of leaving the quarry to go to the CDC over Fort Benning miles in the other direction , to find a cure for the now bitten and infected Jim. Rick asks Lori if she blames him for not being there when the camp was attacked, and to support his decision to head for the CDC.

She doesn't blame him, but she doesn't know if she can follow him to the CDC on blind faith. When she asks for any kind of certainty on Rick's part, he tells her, "I love you. That's all I got. He asks her to convince him that his idea is a bad one and goes on to tell her that trying to repair her troubled marriage with Rick does not supersede the safety of the group.

Lori, still angry with him for lying to her, replies that the group can make up their minds about where to go without bringing her marriage into the situation. When the RV breaks down, Jim asks to be left to die and Lori, along with Dale, agree that his request should be respected despite Rick's belief that their friend is delirious. When the group arrives at the CDC, they find that the complex has been completely closed off by shutters.

When they receive no answer to their calls, they all agree to leave the area before it gets too dark. Rick is insistent that someone is still alive in the complex after seeing the security camera move. Rick begins to yell at the security camera, demanding that whoever is inside let them in.

Lori and the others become increasingly panicked as walkers steadily approach. Frantically, Lori tries to get Rick to stop yelling and leave with them, but he ignores her and becomes hysterical. As Rick is finally pulled away screaming by Shane and Lori, the shutter doors open. Lori and the other survivors enjoy a short reprieve from mortal danger after Dr.

Edwin Jenner takes them inside the CDC, under the condition that they all submit to blood tests. When Andrea shows signs of pain, Jenner finds out none of them have eaten in days. The group then celebrates a hot meal and wine. Lori allows Carl to try wine for the first time. When questioned about the lack of other people, Dr Jenner explains that he's the only person still alive in the complex because most fled to be with their families and others committed suicide after a certain period of time.

Afterward, Lori and Rick enjoy a hot shower together. Lori later finds Carl in the recreational room with Carol and Sophia, reading books. Carl leaves with Carol and Sophia to sleep, while Lori browses the library.

She is startled by a drunken Shane, who was watching her from his adjoining room. He slams a door to alert her, before he insists that she listen to his side of the story regarding Rick still being alive. Angry, Lori attempts to leave the room, but is cut off by Shane. He tries to plead his case to her, telling her that he believed Rick was dead, that he didn't hear or feel a heartbeat, and that if he hadn't lied to her she would've died trying to get to Rick.

When Lori continues to refuse to listen to him, Shane becomes physically aggressive and attempts to rape her, shoving his hand down her shorts. Lori struggles and eventually scratches him across the neck.

Bleeding, Shane flees the room, leaving a frightened Lori to herself. Later, an equally drunk Rick returns to their bedroom and assures the crying Lori that they have nothing to be afraid of anymore, not realizing what she is actually upset about. At breakfast, Lori avoids eye contact with Shane when Rick notices the scratch mark on his neck. Shane lies and says he did it in his sleep and Rick says that's unusual behavior for Shane, but doesn't push the issue.

Later, Jenner shows the group how the mysterious disease affects the human brain via "TS" Test Subject 19 , explaining that it only reactivated the brain stem, not the parts that make a person human. He also admits that he doesn't know how to treat the disease and that he has lost contact with other CDC facilities. When it is revealed the CDC complex has been rigged to self-destruct, Lori implores Jenner to allow them to escape, telling him that they wish to survive for as long as they can.

Jenner eventually allows them to leave, while choosing to remain behind with Jacqui. With the use of Rick's grenade that Carol had stashed in her backpack, the survivors manage to reach their vehicles just as the CDC building explodes. Lori is driving up to a vehicle jammed highway with Rick, Carl and other group members.

Finding the path blocked by abandoned cars, and with Dale's RV broken down, they decide to look for supplies in the abandoned vehicles while Dale and Glenn make repairs. Lori is initially opposed to looting what she believes to be "a graveyard" but relents when Carol explains how her abusive husband Ed used to control what clothes she was allowed to wear.

She tells Carl to stay close by. Carl finds a supply of tools. When a herd of walkers catches up to them, Rick yells at Lori and the group to hide under the cars. Lori and Carol take shelter under a car opposite to where Carl and Sophia are hiding. The herd passes by but one lagging behind spots Sophia when she attempts to move from her hiding spot. Sophia panics and bolts into the woods. Lori rushes after a hysterical Carol and covers her mouth to prevent any walkers from hearing her cries.

As the group splits up to look for Sophia, Carl tells Lori about the tools he found. Lori tells him to put them down, but Carl doesn't listen and shows Shane instead. Shane yells at him to give them to Dale. Lori confronts Shane about speaking to Carl too harshly, then finds out that Shane plans to leave the group. Lori comforts Carol after she becomes distressed by nobody being able to find Sophia by sundown.

Rick walks away from the group after Carol blames him for Sophia going missing as Rick left her alone to attend to a stray walker. The next day, Lori addresses the group's hypocrisy towards Rick, saying "You look to him, then blame him when he's not perfect".

Elsewhere in the woods, Carl is shot through the stomach while looking at a wild deer. In a pre-apocalypse flashback, Lori is outside Carl's school waiting to pick him up. Lori tells a friend about her marital problems with Rick, and the fight they had that morning the same one Shane and Rick discuss in Days Gone Bye.

Lori explains that Rick has no fire about him and won't even participate in an argument with her. She tells her friend she knows she's being irrational but doesn't know why. Her friend asks "But you still love him? She then ponders if their current communication issues came from marrying too young.

Before they can finish the conversation, a police siren rings out and several cars roll into the carpark. Lori excuses herself and appears apprehensive, knowing something is wrong.

Shane slowly exits his vehicle with a grim expression. Lori asks "Is he alive? Shane tells her Rick is in surgery. Lori is distressed about telling Carl who is walking over to her but Shane says she doesn't have to do it alone.

He stays nearby as Lori informs Carl, who begins to cry. In present time, Lori is apprehensive, wondering why only a single gunshot rang out not knowing she heard Carl being shot. Later, Maggie catches up to the group by horse, in order to inform Lori about Carl and rush her to the Greene Family Farm. Lori begins to cry as soon as she sees Rick covered in blood. They embrace and Rick takes her to Carl's bedside. As Carl clings to life, Lori tells Rick she temporarily forgot Jacqui was dead, then remembered Jacqui doesn't have to deal with the trauma of the apocalypse anymore.

She wonders if she and Rick are even doing the right thing by Carl, trying to keep him alive in this increasingly violent world. She wonders if Dr. Jenner was right about not living in their world any longer but Rick disagrees. They cannot agree on what's right. Soon after, Carl awakens and fondly remembers watching the deer in the forest. He has a seizure due to blood loss while Lori and Rick watch horrified. Rick tells Lori about the deer and says he believes it to be a sign that it's worth keeping Carl alive, despite everything, because he still sees beauty in the world.

Carl stabilizes once Shane returns with the appropriate medicine but without Otis. As Lori tearfully embraces a still unconscious but stable Carl, Shane enters the room. Lori tells him to stay. Shane asks Lori if she really meant it when she said stay. Lori says she did but does not elaborate. Lori then asks Glenn to discreetly get her something secret while he is on a pharmacy run. Later, Lori helps the group attempt to pull a fallen walker out of the farm's well, however it disintegrates as they pull it out, filling the well with blood and guts.

Carl tells Rick that Lori informed him Sophia still isn't rescued yet. At night, Lori moves outside alone and reveals the item she asked Glenn for was a pregnancy test. She takes the test and it shows positive - she is pregnant. She begins to cry upon seeing the result. In another flashback, the apocalypse has begun and people are frantically trying to leave the city. Lori, Shane and Carl are stuck in a traffic jam. Lori and Carl speak to Carol and Sophia, also stuck in the traffic, along with Carol's abusive husband, Ed.

When Carl exclaims he is hungry, Carol offers some of their food. Ed, however, berates her for talking to strangers, saying it's not safe. Lori and Shane notice people moving into the forest nearby and ask Carol to watch Carl while they head over to find out what's happening. They stop when they see the city of Atlanta in the distance, being bombed by the military in order to try to curb the walker outbreak.

Shane is stunned and Lori becomes overwhelmed with fear. Shane comforts her while she cries. In present time, Lori wakes up and helps Carol with the laundry. After shooting his own mother to prevent her from turning into a walker, Carl tearfully presented his new baby sister to Rick.

The following episode, "Say the Word," featured a traumatized Rick go on a rampage through the prison before finding a very bloated walker at the site at which Lori gave birth. There was an assumption that the walker consumed Lori, and that was later confirmed. When Rick entered the boiler room, he followed a trail of blood leading him to the bloated walker. There was an insinuation that the walker dragged Lori's body before indulging in its entirety. There were even strands of Lori's hair around the walker's mouth.

With no trace of Lori's body, Rick killed the walker and stabbed at its stomach to search for pieces of Lori's corpse. He didn't allow himself to fully investigate since he was overcome with emotion. Some viewers questioned how a walker could have eaten an entire body in that short of time. The show was never the same to me without Jeff and John. I have a hard time moving on from big losses like that. Because they were so definitive. We were all in the pilot together.

They made me a better actor and made me a better person. Lori Grimes has a fire and a ferocity to her that I have absolutely loved. When we were shooting this last episode, Andy and I were looking at each other through a fence. And we both just lost it. We finished the scene and we walked towards each other, met in the middle of the field and just stood there weeping for a little bit. Everyone was amazing and backed off and gave us our space and nobody rushed us out of it.

That breaks my heart. I wanted a better ending for them. Not a better ending like, I wish the writers had written something better. I wanted them to have a happy ending. There are no happy endings.
