Relationships
Mike
- "Don't start finishing each other's sentences, man. It's just gross."
- —Terry to Mike, after Mike finishes Michonne's sentence[src]
Mike and Terry were good friends who joked, and had a friendly relationship. When the outbreak started Mike and Terry stayed together, protecting each other until they both reanimated. Terry stayed with Mike in a camp, even though he wanted to leave because of his safety, but because of Andre, Mike's his son he stayed close to him until they both reanimated, after getting high.
Michonne Hawthorne
- "I've never seen a gorilla drive a car before, but if you put it in a museum, I'm not gonna call it art."
- —Michonne to Terry, discussing a show they watched[src]
Not much is known about their relationship, except that they were friends before the outbreak and they survived together during the outbreak. Michonne's friendship with Terry was shattered when walkers invaded their camp and Terry was unable to defend himself, Mike, or Andre, due to the fact that he and Mike had been getting high at the time. Michonne, enraged that Terry and Mike's actions had led to the death of her son, allowed Mike and Terry to turn when they were bitten, and cut off their jaws and arms, and took them with her, in chains as guards. When Andrea asked Michonne who her walker guards were, Michonne replied that it didn't matter because "they weren't human in the first place", suggesting that she still blamed Mike and Terry, and resented them for Andre's death.
