The Walking Dead: Self Help (2014)
Season 5, Episode 5
9/10
Revelation and Truth
10 November 2014
Abraham is driving the bus to Washington but has an accident and the bus overturns. The group protects Eugene and walks to a bookstore to spend the night. Eugene discloses to Tara that he had sabotaged the bus but she does not reveal to the group. In the morning, Abraham finds a fire truck and they drive to Washington again. When the truck breaks on the road, Abraham wants to walk through a horde of walkers and Eugene discloses a secret to the group of survivors about his research. Meanwhile Abraham recalls the fate of his wife Annie and their two kids and how he met Eugene.

"Self Help" is a predictable but full of action episode where the truth about Eugene is finally revealed. There is no surprise in his revelation and now the survivors lose their hope in a safe post-apocalyptic world. Abraham is a very violent man and it is shown since his wife prefers to take a chance with her children against the walkers alone than stay with him. His character ends the episode completely destroyed with the discovery about Eugene. What is the fate of Eugene is the question. My vote is nine.

Title (Brazil): "Self Help"
