The walking dead S5

LOL he got knocked the fuck out, I was laughing so hard the mullet dropped like a brick

[rursusferre]

i don't think so, but he definitely got knocked the fuck out. Overall probably my least favorite episode of the season so far, but still decent. Just like with Terminus, I thought they would draw out Eugene being full of shit for longer. Considering there is still like 10 episodes left in the whole season, I'm pretty curious to see where they end it. Still been the most solid season in a long time.

One thing that I think the show missed out on this episode was explaining abrahams backstory more. Apparently the men he killed were his neighbors, whom he had known for years. When we went out on a run, apparently they raped his wife and daughter. He then went apeshit and killed them. I think it SORT OF implied, but maybe not clear enough for people to 100% get that from the show. Still a good episode, and glad to see those people fleshed out a bit more finally.

Just to be clear.

So the family was scared of him for killing the neighbors? Even tho were raped.
The family skipped out on him when he was sleeping and got killed by walkers? He found them and wasn't long for this world. Before he was about to end himself, Eugene showed up like the big giant pussy that he is.

Cause that is what I got from it. I didn't know they were his neighbors, but they seemed like part of a crew. Also was a little hard to tell they were raped, but figured it had to be bad for him to going nuts on them. They looked scared which helped put it together some.

Don't get that guy pissed. He has a nice temper, berserk mode.

[rursusferre]

Yeah, apparently they explained all of this on "The Talking Dead". In the comics the only difference is that its his ex-wife, which I guess is still possible. I guess it explains why the wife has black eyes and stuff. I wish they had been a tad bit clearer. I got that he killed some "living" people, but part of me just thought it was over food or something, and his family seeing him willing to do that, flipped out. Would make sense too, gotta remember this would be kind toward the beginning, people wouldn't quite be used to the whole "kill or be killed" thing. But the fact that they were raped makes it a bit odd. Maybe they'll go more into this. This is from the actors mouth, so maybe he knows more about it, future episodes maybe.

[Yooxra]

Yeah towards the beginning makes it understandable. Killing the living was much less acceptable. You remember in the earlier episodes of people killing people, people were flipping out over it. What they talked about some later in the episode was just about that, I think someone said, people are different now, those that survived are the strong ones that did what they had to. They go on to say stuff like that. Also most of them are more scared of the living now than they are of the dead. But it seems that if they were raped, they were obviously willing to just say screw it, we were raped, you shouldn't of killed them. Cause also early on having five guys on the team to protect them from the walkers had to be a good thing. Till things started going sideways.

[rursusferre]

yeah, i thought that line about "its been long enough, only ones left are the strong" was a really good one.

[Gogan]

Lot of good little moments like that in the last episode. I cracked up when Eugene got caught watching Abraham and GI Jane shackin up. Although I was heartbroken to learn that they were actually an item. She so hot, and he's so... ugh.

It was pretty clear from the start that Eugene was full of shit. I always hated his character. I never liked that whole "gotta get to washington to save the world" storyline, but I think I'll like the ensuing drama now that the jig is up. And I find Eugene more likable now too.

[Fusa]

I somewhat found the same thing about Eugene the mullet, I am starting to like his character ( even if he didn't tell his secret to everyone) he was opening up a little bit prior to spilling the beans.
