In the season four episode "Live Bait," the Governor (David Morrissey) stumbles across the apartment of Lilly and Tara, who welcome him in despite his scraggly appearance. Around the 25-minute mark, he can be seen napping on their couch, and with his eyepatch and the embroidered parrot that seems to sit on his shoulder, he looks exactly like a pirate. In an interview with The Huffington Post, Morrisey confirmed that the visual gag was done on purpose. "There was one shot of the Governor, I think when he came back," he said. "He was in his disheveled state with his beard and his hair when he was lying on the couch and a the cushion behind him has a parrot, which was by his shoulder, so that was always quite funny."
