Deadweight or dead weight may refer to:
"Dead Weight" is the seventh episode of the fourth season of the post-apocalyptic horror television series The Walking Dead, which aired on AMC on November 24, 2013. The episode focuses on the nature of The Governor (David Morrissey)'s survival instinct conflicted against the morality of the actions that he takes in order to survive in his new camp of operations.
Caesar Martinez (Jose Pablo Cantillo) and brothers Mitch (Kirk Acevedo) and Pete Dolgen (Enver Gjokaj) rescue The Governor (David Morrissey) and Meghan Chambler (Meyrick Murphy) from a pit of walkers. After reuniting with Lilly (Audrey Marie Anderson) and Tara (Alanna Masterson), The Governor joins the camp of Martinez, who is surprised by The Governor's decision to adopt a new identity.
The Governor, Martinez, Mitch, and Pete go on a supply run in a nearby cabin, where they find three dead bodies labeled "Liar", "Rapist", and "Murderer". While resting in the cabin, Martinez tells The Governor that he wouldn't have saved him if The Governor weren't with his family, which Martinez believes is an indication that The Governor has changed from his old cruel ways. When they return to camp, Martinez invites The Governor to play golf atop a trailer, where Martinez reveals that Shumpert, one of The Governor's former henchmen, became reckless and was bitten near one of the walker pits; Martinez then mercy-killed him. A drunk Martinez shares his insecurities about keeping the camp safe, and he offers The Governor a co-leadership role. In response, The Governor whacks Martinez's head with his golf club, throws him off the trailer, and drags him to a pit of walkers, where Martinez is devoured. The Governor repeatedly mutters, "I don't want it".
Sometimes I like to stick my fingers
where they don't belong.
Sometimes I like to fake a fever
and just stay home.
'Cause we smile in here
we don't get too close to sadness.
'Cause what's holding us
is just about to break.
Ain't it funny how
life can drag behind us
just like so much dead weight.
Sometimes what feels like
pretty good music
is just the same old song.
Sometimes we deal with
bygone bruises
and find it's been too long.
But we laugh in here
we don't get too close to sadness.
We know good enough
is a thousand miles from grace.
Ain't it funny how
life can drag behind us
just like so much
dead weight.
And my hometown train
is pulling from the station.
And I know for once
I really will be late.
And I'll dream that we
can leave the past behind us
just like to much
dead weight.
Sometimes I like to stick my fingers
