‘The Walking Dead’ Season 5, Episode 5: The Highlights & Spoilers You Need to Know

Check out all the highlights of the best moments that transpired during the 5th episode of The Walking Dead’s Season 5 run!


1. A Crew of Survivors Hit The Open Road

The show opened with a few survivors from Rick’s crew heading out up the road on their bus. Abraham, Rosita, Tara, Maggie and Glenn broke up the silence on their road trip by speaking about what transpired at the church.

Eugene was still shaken by the violent episode that took place in the Church between Rick and Gareth. Abraham drove past a huge number of undead and soon plowed into another car and totaled the bus. The zombie horde nearby heard the loud crash and headed straight for them.


2. The Bus Broke Down!

The show came back on with a cringe worthy scene that depicted Abraham beating down several people in a marketplace. The show returned to current times where the group tried to make their way off the bus and steer clear of the incoming zombie horde. Eugene looked on as his protector put down several zombies. He even aided Tara by grabbing up a zombie and helping her cut it down.

The bus that crashed soon erupted in flames, but Abraham insisted that everyone needed to keep moving. Glenn did his best to relax the situation. Everyone decided to do their best and search for another suitable form of transportation.


3. Eugene Sabotaged the Bus!

Another flashback sequence occurred that saw Abraham calling out for some woman. A mysterious female figure appeared and suddenly the show went back to modern times. The group entered into a library of sorts and made a quick campfire with the books seen in each bookcase. Humming could be heard in the background as everyone pushed bookcases together to form blockades. Abraham got his injured hand prepared, thankfully. Abraham stared out the window (a random zombie came up to the window and left pretty quickly) as Glenn spoke with him. Their conversation seemed to focus on their current situation and the things they’d have to do to keep on moving.

Abraham and Rosita could be seen making love while Eugene watched from a distance (creepily, we might add). Tara brought Eugene out of his disturbing state and spoke with him. Eugene revealed that he actually sabotaged the bus! His reasoning for screwing up the bus revolved around him feeling worthless and having protection only because of his ability to cure the zombie virus. Glenn and Maggie could then be seen discussing their survival thus far. Abraham could be seen by the window scoping out the undead once again.

4. Eugene Actually Killed Off Some Zombies for Once

We once again saw Abraham consoling a two women and a lone child inside of the same marketplace. Soon after, we fast forwarded time to Abraham and Rosita arguing over if they should continue moving on or stay idle in the library. The rest of the group made their way toward securing a fire truck. Abraham managed to get the truck to work.

Suddenly, the truck came to an abrupt halt. While the group talked about what to do next, a huge group of zombies came right out of the firehouse. Eugene aided the group by spraying down the zombies with the fire truck’s water hose.


5. Eugene Revealed He Wasn’t a Doctor

Abraham woke up to see the group he saved in the market area gone. Back in the current day, Maggie and Eugene started up a convo about why Eugene sports his unique hairstyle. Maggie recited a folk story to Eugene that was meant to bring up Eugene’s spirits. Suddenly, everyone complained about a mysterious stench.

Abraham and the rest of the group began making their way down the road when they discovered where the horrible stench was coming from – two sides of farmland packed with live zombies. The group looked to find another way to D.C., but Abraham insisted they all make their way through the group of zombies. The group erupted into a huge argument when Abraham grabbed Eugene’s arm. Suddenly, Eugene admitted to lying about being a real doctor.


6. Abraham Took Out His Frustrations on Eugene for Lying

The group was pretty shocked to hear that Eugene wasn’t an actual scientist. He admitted that he was intelligent and a pretty good liar. He made up that lie in order to get to D.C. just to survive since it seemed like the best place to be. Tara mentioned how may people died to keep him safe while Eugene admitted to screwing up pretty bad.

Abraham couldn’t take it anymore and lashed out at Eugene by smashing his face in with two punches. Eugene’s head hit the cement ground pretty hard and looked to be dead. The show returned to a flashback sequence that showed Abraham meeting Eugene for the 1st time and saving his life from the zombies following him. This is the moment where Eugene lied about his “very important mission.”
