There was a reason for that: It was just set-up for zombie attacks in every corner. The randomness of everyone's missions added to my confusion: tossed-off bits of expositional dialogue explained just why one crew is loading into a van and searching a warehouse, and another is driving some construction equipment, but after weeks where every piece of action has been so deliberate, in search of some specific goal, this all felt very vague. This episode proved just how good Rick and his people fundamentally are. Glenn, always one of the group's most level-headed and avuncular members, has been particularly scarred here. The horrifying presentation of his death wasn't entirely pointless, as you noted, Lenika. Still, it felt coincidental to the point of annoyance that on his first big mission with Rick's crew, Deanna's son bit the dust similarly, Noah (or another big name from the cast) had to die to raise the stakes from Rick's side of things. The point of the disaster in the warehouse had been proven weeks ago-the Alexandria folks don't know what they're doing, and are more than happy to turn tail and run even if it means leaving others to zombie deaths. That's partly the inherent nature of the show: It can whack the "ZOMBIES!" button whenever it wants, and if that threat lurks around every corner, it can sow chaos without warning and always feel authentic. After weeks of brooding in Alexandria, this explosion of violence (plus Father Gabriel's betrayal) should be enough to rip the community apart, but it didn't feel quite earned. But the people demand (occasional) gore, and this episode had plenty-but it all felt a little rushed through. After an episode like this, it's particularly amazing to consider just how popular this show is, considering the intensity of its content. I don't know that I wanted to watch his face get ripped to pieces. Tyler James Williams was an adorable adolescent Chris Rock on the great, underrated sitcom Everybody Hates Chris for five years. Even speaking as a horror fan, sometimes the gore of The Walking Dead is just too much. This show is slowly tearing me apart, David! (Okay, I'm done.) And this situation has become far more toxic, far more quickly, than even I as a cynical viewer could have expected. Which means, they're going to be in danger. And so the overarching tragedy of all the mini-tragedies in this episode is that Father Gabriel's words, combined with the likelihood that Deanna might blame Glenn for Aiden's death, will jeopardize the group's trustworthiness in the eyes of Alexandria. They will risk their own lives time and again to save others, even those they don't like. Nicholas' craven selfishness, incidentally, highlighted how brave Eugene proved he could be when everyone needed him the most. Noah's completely unnecessary death was a reminder of how fatal cowardice could be, a fact rarely illuminated considering how brave everyone on the show has become. Just when the show begins to let everyone recover from their wounds, it rips fresh ones. I was horrified on Glenn's behalf and can already imagine this unspeakably traumatic incident killing him in some way. Why, The Walking Dead, did you have to show Noah's face being ripped apart? I can't get the image of his tongue hanging out as he screamed and slowly died in front of Glenn's eyes on the other side of that glass out of my head. Jessie and rick the walking dead series#Glenn and company ran into a series of grotesque misfortunes culminating in obscene, close-up death scenes for Noah and Aidan. And, in a sickening touch, Father Gabriel lost his mind and told Deanna that Rick and the rest have Satan in them and aren't to be trusted. Abraham saved the life of a fellow builder after a zombie attack, won the respect of the construction team, and was promoted to be their leader. Rick and Carol discovered that Jessie's husband, a surgeon/drunk named Pete, is likely beating his family. Why Do We Need to Sleep? Veronique Greenwoodīut let's quickly re-establish the big events of this episode: Glenn, Noah, Eugene, Aiden, Tara, and Nicholas left to scout for some supplies.
