#8. Otis rounded up walkers so I figure Herschel didn't know Sophia was in the barn because Otis and Shane went off to get the medical supplies right away. As for Lori driving into town after Rick and Glen, so stupid on so many levels. What? She thinks she's out for a nice Sunday drive? This is one of the things I don't like about the series, too many of the characters don't pay enough attention to their surroundings, they aren't cautious enough, they let their guard down. The whole bar sequence was very well done, Rick and Herschel's conversation was great for creating a better understanding and partnership between the two. The way the two men from Philadelphia talked and kept looking for cues from each other, and Rick being a good cop and noticing everything and getting more and more suspicious was excellently handled. And what a killer ending.
#9. So Lori leaves the car and walks off, making it harder to find her. Dumb and dumber. Bringing the guy (Randall) back only to want to let him go miles away is silly. Better to give him a chance to join and watch him. Herschel confronting Shane was a good, strong scene.
#10. The Rick/Shane talk, fight, talk worked well. I liked it that Rick started to leave; it tells Shane that he's more out on a limb than he realised. Then the very poignant scene where Rick contemplates the two cop bodies and decides to return for Shane. Trouble is, Rick thinks everything's out in the open and they're going to move forward. I'm unconvinced: Shane was too quiet, too introverted, said nothing to indicate that he'll cooperate and work better with Rick in the future. He's good for the group, but not for the individual; Dale's right not to trust him. With the 'no bites' speculation over the cop bodies, maybe they're just suggesting that it takes less to get infected than they thought. However, it seems rather late for that, nearly halfway through the second season. Perhaps they're suggesting that the disease is now more contagious, stronger or airborne?
All in all, I have to agree that the second season is far better than the first, the characters are getting more rounded out and the group dynamics more complicated.

So I shouldn't mention that the Martians invade, right?

If they end up in some sort of official refuge or bunker, THEN I'll buy it. Maybe it'll end like The Mist and Rick will waste Carl just as a bus drives by with survivors including Sophia's mom and obviously the black guy and his kid.
...nah, Darabont left so no chance of that

I missed the first few minutes... Can someone recap? It looked like they were showing something about where all of those zombies came from.
Laurie's a bitch for her reaction to Rick's explanation about Shane. Makes it seem like she doesn't believe him or would have preferred Shane to be the one who came back.
What the heck is with the person who Andrea meets, and their little zombie slave attachment?
What was that building or complex at the end? It was hard to see on a little hotel TV. A prison, maybe? That would seem to be a safe place to stay for a while.

The swarm was from the city (are they still nearest to Atlanta?). A helicoptor (!) flew overhead in the general direction of the farm and the zombies started walking in that direction after it.
Your other two questions are answered fairly early in the comics (maybe about a dozen issues in). As for your last question:

This last episode wasn't too bad, I enjoyed it. This whole season has kept me subscribed on the DVR, I was about 1 millisecond away from cancelling it last season after that abominable last episode at the CDC. I just don't really understand Lori's reaction to Rick killing Shane at all. I mean, aren't we just weeks removed from that heavy handed scene where Lori is literally whispering about how dangerous Shane is into Rick's ear?

Sometimes the writers make Lori a dumb fucking character (her driving out to find Rick a few episodes back), but I bought into her reaction in this scene.
