Check out all the highlights of the best moments that transpired during the 10th episode airing of The Walking Dead’s Season 5 run!
1. Three Survivors From the Group Scavenged for Food and Water
The 1st show we see is off Maggie crying by her lonesome in the woods. A zombie could be seen lurking behind her while she continued to weep. It got close enough to bite her, but got stuck in a group of vines. Maggie put the zombie out of its misery and went right back to her depressing state. We next saw a man digging into the ground.
Turns out it was Daryl, who dug out a worm for lunch. Sasha was next seen walking through a dirt trail looking for some sign of water to bottle up and drink. Maggie, Daryl and Sasha all managed to group back up. They went back out onto the road and noted that it would be a long while before they reached their destination.
2. Sasha Went on a Violent Rampage Against a Group of Zombies
Rick and a few survivors were forced to hop out of the truck since it broke down. Everyone decided to make their way down the long road. Rick told Daryl about his plans to find higher ground for everyone. Rick noted that it had been three weeks since the incident in Atlanta. Daryl seemingly ignored him and talked about how the baby and the group needed some food and water. Daryl went off on his own to get some supplies, but Carol went along with him anyways. Carl and Maggie shared a moment over a broken music box. Father Gabriel then spoke up and talked about his religious attire to Maggie. Gabriel offered Maggie a chance to speak with him about her problems, but Maggie didn’t seem too open to talking with him.
The group continued to make their weary crawl to a safer destination while a horde of the undead trailed behind them. Sasha and Michonne spoke along the way, which saw Sasha get gung-ho to kill the zombies behind them. Michonne was much more calmer and didn’t see any reason to waste any of the energy or supplies they had left. Daryl and Carol continued looking for food and water. Carol admitted that Beth saved her life back at the hospital. Carol passed along Beth’s knife to Daryl and noted that they’re still alive in this world. Carol told Daryl to let himself feel the sorrow that came from the death of Beth.
Rick and the survivors arrived at a certain part of the road. The zombies that walked behind them were closer to them as ever, which led to the group pushing them down the side of a bridge to the murky depths below. Sasha decided to cut down a zombie, which caused everyone to change plans to kill any leftover zombies. Michonne told Sasha to stop, which led Sasha to walk off angrily from their encounter.
3. A Pack of Vicious Dogs Ran Up on Rick and His Group
Rick and his crew spotted a row of abandoned cars. Daryl decided to go off on his own again in the woods. Maggie went into one of the cars to look for anything useful. She discovered the car keys, opened the car’s truck and came upon a now turned older woman who looked like she was kidnapped. The thumping that came from the truck forced Maggie to come back, but she struggled to unlock the truck this time. Maggie almost used her gun to crack open the trunk, but Glenn stopped her before she could do it. Glenn managed to re-open the trunk and went ahead to kill that zombie himself. Glenn and Maggie then went off together.
Daryl made his way through the woods and came upon the carcass of a rotten dear. He then spotted a dead walker right beside a tree. As the group sat and waited for the return of Daryl, the crackling of thunder could be heard rumbling in the sky above them. Daryl made his way back to the group. Everyone only seemed to find some booze. Things were calm until several vicious dogs came out to confront the group. Sasha went ahead and killed the dogs quickly, which led to Rick cooking them for the entire group to feast on.
Noah spoke to Sasha for a bit and told her that Tyreese tried to save him. Sasha told him not to think about things and just eat. The group continued to eat their dog meat nearby. Father Gabriel threw down the most potent piece to his religious wardrobe, which seemed to garner a curious reaction from Maggie.
4. Daryl Finally Opened Up About the Death of Beth
Maggie and Glenn could be seen continuing their walk with the group on the long, winding road. Maggie finally managed to speak on Beth, noting that she didn’t know if she was truly alive or not. She seemed distraught over seeing her sister in such a sad state. She didn’t know if she wanted to continue moving on, but Glenn told her to keep fighting to survive. Maggie got some water in her system.
Sasha spoke with Abraham as they walked. Abraham warned her that her actions could be bad for the group, to which Sasha noted that she was no friend of the booze drinking man. Glenn offered some water to Daryl, who declined. Daryl then decided to veer off on his own into the forest once again.
Daryl sat down by a tree upon discovering a barn in the distance. He lit up a cigarette and locked eyes with the seemingly abandoned house. Daryl’s inner pain seemed to take over him, as he burned himself with the still lit cigarette. He began to weep and finally release his inner frustrations over Beth’s death.
5. A Brutal Thunderstorm Forced the Survivors to Take Shelter in a Barn
Daryl made his way back to the group. Rick delivered a note to him that he found. A large stash of water was found in the middle of the road. No one knew if it was safe or not, which led to Eugene trying to test it out by drinking one. Before he could though, Abraham slapped the water bottle out of his hand. Just then, a thunderstorm passed over the group. A few of the survivors were happy to be bathed in natural water, while Maggie, Daryl and Gabriel still looked trapped in their thoughts.
While the group took the rainfall water into their bottles, the storm seemed to pick up steam and get more dangerous. Daryl led the group to the barn he saw before. Maggie located a zombie inside a room, which she put out of its misery immediately. Carol came upon Maggie afterwards. Their brief conversation covered the fact that the now turned lady zombie could have killed herself since she had a gun. Carol make sure to mention that they need to keep pushing.
Rick spoke to his crew around a campfire. Michonne and Rick disagreed over how to best handle living in this world, while Glenn spoke up during their conversation and Daryl sat by his lonesome. Rick then went into a story about asking his father about whether or not he killed any Germans during his time in the war. Rick continued talking about how his father pretended he was dead and got out of the situation by noting that he truly lived when the war was over. Rick told this story to convince the group that they would find something great in D.C. and get to live again. He noted that they were truly the walking dead. Daryl disagreed with this statement and convinced Rick that they were far from the walking dead. Rick then agreed.
6. A New Character Named Aaron Met Up With Maggie and Carol
The storm continued to rage outside the barn. Daryl made his way to the door and was shocked to see a huge gathering of zombies fight to make their way in. Maggie noticed and ran over to help him. Then Sasha saw the commotion and offered her aid as well. Soon, the whole group woke up to help fend off the walking dead outside their barn. After a long, drawn out struggle against the fighting horde, Maggie could be seen waking back up. She spotted Rick’s baby girl and cheered up a bit. Maggie walked over to Daryl, who was already awake and deep in his thoughts. Maggie told Daryl to rest and get some sleep just like everyone else. Daryl mentioned that Tyreese was tough and Beth was too, even though she didn’t know it before she passed. Daryl passed along the broken music box back to Maggie, who decided to pass it along to Sasha.
As both women went back outside, they spotted the remains of the zombies littered amongst the trees ravaged by the passing storm. Maggie and Sasha found a quiet spot in the woods right in front of a beautiful sunset rising before them. Sasha spoke about how Noah said he didn’t know if hew cut out to make it. Sasha noted that she felt the exact same way, to which Maggie responded by saying they they’d both make it. Maggie opened up the now functioning music box, but they suddenly caught off guard by a man named Aaron. Aaron wished to speak with Rick. Aaron noted that he had good news. The show went off the air as both women locked their weapons on Aaron while the music box began to play.
