* When the bus flips over, Tara protects Eugene from a walker that tries to get in through the bus' window by stabbing it in the back of the head. The kill is done with CGI effects, so the stab wound is still visible in the kill scene, but after Tara gives Eugene a knife and they both leave the bus to help the rest of the group, the stab wound behind the walker's head isn't there anymore. * Also, an error on the special effects occurred when a walker almost bit Eugene from his back, Tara is seen visually stabbing the walker, despite the knife went above the walker's head. * When Eugene assisted Tara by stabbing a walker in the back, while Tara dealt the fatal stab to the head. Eugene then removes his knife which is now covered in blood. As he walks towards Abraham, you can see the blood digitally fading off the knife. * The scene where Eugene uses the powerful water monitor on top of the fire-truck is unrealistic, as all water pumps inside a fire-truck can only work with a working and running engine. * Maggie pulls the ladder from the rear of the firetruck, but in previous shots the only ladder on the firetruck is hung on the passenger side. * During the flashback when Abraham first met Eugene the sky behind Eugene is fairly clear but when Abraham goes to kill the walkers there are dark clouds in the sky, once he is finished killing them, the sky is clear again. * In the scene where Eugene kills the walkers with the hose, they all appear to die, but in the next shot, two corpses appear to be moving. * After Eugene takes down the walkers, growls can still be heard, suggesting that a few may have simply been incapacitated rather than them being outright killed.

2025-11-07 19:09:31 +0000 UTC* The title of the episode, "Self Help", refers to Eugene peeking on Rosita and Abraham having sex at the Self Help section. * Also, Eugene reveals that he has been lying to everybody about the cure in order to get other people to ensure his survival, so he has been helping himself. * The original title was "The Choice", but it was changed for unknown reasons. * The episode's exact runtime is 00:42:51. * According to Michael Cudiltz, this episode was almost banned completely, due to unknown reasons. * The song featured in this episode is "May the Work I've Done Speak for Me" by The Consolers. * In the scene where Tara and Eugene talk behind the bookcase, the books on the shelf are titled "We All Fall Down" which is a nod to the classic British nursery "Ring a Ring a Roses" which is thought to make reference to the bubonic plague which swept through 15th Century England and again in the 17th Century.

2025-09-25 19:45:04 +0000 UTCI never liked Eugene the entire show. I found him so annoying and felt there were other more important characters that could have lived and been a part of the show for a longer period of time.

2025-09-14 19:46:53 +0000 UTCLmaoo my 13 yo daughter says aura farming, it's like when someone doesn't have natural aura so they go out of their way to do things to look cool. Back in our day we would've called them posers 😆

2025-06-29 22:45:17 +0000 UTCAura farming is doing unnecessary stuff to look cool

2025-06-22 23:23:52 +0000 UTCBrandon's face when Eugene revealed himself to be a fraud was priceless. It spoke volumes.

2025-06-16 01:38:56 +0000 UTCAbraham cracks me up! A goat rodeo, lol! 🤣😂

2025-06-16 01:31:23 +0000 UTCAd, you stepped in some dookie of your own suggesting 50 Shades of Grey for a romantic movie, lol.

2025-06-16 01:09:49 +0000 UTCAgreed at my shop we close at 8 and not till 8 exactly but.... if you are a customer and you go into a buisness 10 mins after they open, or 10 mins before they close you are an inconsiderate person probably leave you shopping cart out in the lane and litter next to a trash can

2025-06-14 04:04:39 +0000 UTCEugene knew he himself was weak and a bit of punk. Ok a coward. But. He gave Abraham a sense of purpose and probably brought him back to himself.

2025-06-13 08:17:45 +0000 UTCSince yall have watched Twilight already, I feel it's my duty to tell you that 50 Shades of Grey started as Twilight fanfic lol
Stefanie Anderson
2025-06-12 00:39:44 +0000 UTCYou'd think the shifts would be made to include 1hr before opening and 1hr after close. Especially with there being things to be done after closing

2025-06-08 03:13:07 +0000 UTCit’s a interesting contrast to carl’s reaction to what rick did for him last season finale-of course they deeper in the apocalypse so carl seen more mess than ellen and em but not all families built the same
jasmin
2025-06-07 02:50:26 +0000 UTClmbo i lost it at that eugene reenactment
jasmin
2025-06-07 02:13:08 +0000 UTCAbraham was the 1 humming the song, not Eugene. I don't blame Abraham for wailing on Eugene after he learned the truth. Eugene played on Abraham's emotional state. Basically used Abraham as his own personal bodyguard. Then the I'm smarter really pushed Abraham over the edge. I'm glad Abraham got some licks in to relieved his frustration on Eugene.

2025-06-06 20:19:00 +0000 UTCi haven’t finished the episode yet but a lot of people feel abraham’s flashback didn’t make much sense. abraham had said at an interview, they were going on a run or something and him and his family ran into 4 men, one held down the son and made him watch his mom and his sister get r*ped, so abraham beat them to death when he came back

2025-06-06 16:00:02 +0000 UTCMay the Work I've Done Speak for Me is the song Abraham was humming and it was playing in the bus when it crashed, being a church van and all. Old black gospel song by The Consolers.
lily mccann
2025-06-05 22:39:28 +0000 UTCThey actually did allude to Rosita and Abrahm having a thing. Remember after everyone got reunited and Abraham mentioned to Tara he saw her peek down Rosita's shirt. He said he wasn't upset, he understood cause they were "damn near hypnotic".

2025-06-05 20:49:07 +0000 UTCAlmost made me dookie on myself I laughed so hard!!!!! 🤣
Dee D
2025-06-05 20:44:11 +0000 UTCBrandon def called it when he first met them and like they both were saying, he never said anything that sounded like a cure.
ReelPiscesPlays
2025-06-05 14:47:29 +0000 UTC“She done dookied on herself.” I laughed so hard 😂😂😂 because when I saw the zombie walk on screen I thought the same thing and Brandon said it out loud 😂😂😂
Stevanie Okpaleke
2025-06-05 14:22:22 +0000 UTCI thought y'all were saying ore farming this whole time. I thought it was the dumbest slang I've ever heard lmao
Kasey Rodriguez
2025-06-05 07:37:46 +0000 UTCThats what I'm wondering too lol. Brandon called the Terminus group Cannibals before they seen them do any cannibalism activity lol

AztecEtzli
2025-06-05 04:17:18 +0000 UTCAn example of aura farming is when rick started slow walking towards abraham when they got in that little fight some People try to recreate the aura walk in real life that what makes it cringe lol
Royal_Crawler
2025-06-05 03:00:39 +0000 UTCi don't recommend 50 shade of grey it a horrible movie but if you enjoy scary movie and the wayne brother watch 50 shade of black for the channel i think you guy will like it
KennethLu
2025-06-05 02:52:02 +0000 UTCThe clip of the young man in a ski mask he was definitely Aura farming 😂

2025-06-05 00:47:56 +0000 UTCloved it!
EliG
2025-06-05 00:41:48 +0000 UTCThere are no process that still happen after death. The hair and nails do not continue to grow after death. The body starts drying out and the skin retracts, making the hair and nails appear longer, but they did not in fact grow.
Jocelyn Johnson
2025-06-05 00:41:08 +0000 UTCLet Eugene enjoy his Fifty Shades of Grey (with Abraham & Rosita). Speaking of Fifty Shades... maybe it’s time y’all gave it a try. 🤣
Tyrademi
2025-06-05 00:22:56 +0000 UTCOn a previous episode Tara referred to Rosita being in love with Abraham ^^ My story: I heard Carol and Tyrese be sneaking off together, going to open a flower shop

2025-06-04 23:34:49 +0000 UTCAre y'all sure you haven't watched these episodes already?????? I swear your predictions be right on the money!

2025-06-04 23:26:31 +0000 UTCLast episode, Beth volunteered at a local hospital and help a police officer discover his true worth
Mikel Swart
2025-06-04 23:18:03 +0000 UTCand perhaps Eugene isn't a terrible gun user? Maybe back in Season 4 when he shot up their truck after meeting up with Glenn and Tara was just another of him trying to slow things down and not get to DC?? He definitely deserved a far worse beating than he got from Abraham. The funniest thing was when you guys paused after Eugene got caught peeping on Abe and Rosita, and the episode title showed up, "Self Help" right after Abraham used that phrase to describe Eugene.

2025-06-04 22:28:53 +0000 UTCSee now y'all got me feeling like I need to make an apology video! lol -Adison
Adison Hardyway
2025-06-04 21:48:46 +0000 UTClol. In terms of closing 30 minutes earlier before they actually close, I do get it sometimes. Closing shifts can be rough so some people like to get ahead start on closing (especially if behind schedule) bc they want to home a little earlier instead of doing an hour over time. 30 minutes is a bit much, 10 minutes is acceptable. I used to work at Chiptole in college and if I didn’t get any preclosing done we would be there until 12 or 1 which sucks when you have school the next day. Also I had people who were parents that worked at that job so they always wanted to leave early bc they had to take care of their kids in the morning, some circumstances are understandable
Serena Valle
2025-06-04 21:09:13 +0000 UTCI haven't read the books, but if I remember from book fans Abraham's family had just been brutalized by those men he killed. In their shock, Ab looked exactly as how those men behaved. I think his family was further traumatized by his actions. Book readers can fill you in more. Abraham being a soldier , he needs a mission. Eugene recognized Abraham was about to kill himself and gave him a mission so they both could live. I do think Eugene knows Rick group wouldn't get rid of him, which is why he keeps trying to stay with them.

2025-06-04 19:58:46 +0000 UTCYeah Brandon had a gut feeling about Eugene from jump 😊great reaction as always fellas❤️
jessica cantrell
2025-06-04 19:23:50 +0000 UTCEugene gave Father Abraham purpose… something to live for. Now that’s taken away.. I feel for bro
SirBigBalls
2025-06-04 19:07:58 +0000 UTCNot the 50 shades 🤣🤣🤣 had to back track that real quick lol!
Alexander Crawford
2025-06-04 18:28:03 +0000 UTCTara also said Rosita was in love with him and would follow him anywhere.
Chris
2025-06-04 18:22:24 +0000 UTCAll of that hashtag clean loving with no shower yuck anyway I feel bad for Abraham because Eugene had gave him a reason to go on after his family got killed and I knew that he was not a scientist when my family and I first watched this episode that's the first thing I said he is not a scientist like he told Tara he just wanted to be with people who can keep him alive because he's a coward he's an acquired taste that Eugene on to the next episode please 😁❤️

2025-06-04 18:18:29 +0000 UTCI never read the comments but I figured that happened
Queen S
2025-06-04 18:11:46 +0000 UTCMost people don’t know this, but like that zombie whenever someone dies, they tend to void their bowels it’s The first thing that happens to the human body. There are some processes that still happen such as nails and hair growth and because they are walking, I guess that’s why they’re not blowing up from all the built-up gases in the gut before the Civil War, when embalming was not used, people would believe that the dead were rising because popping underneath the Earth at a cemetery that is what happens to the body inside that pressurized canister underneath the dirt even with that much soil sometimes you feel it walking around like a firework that has been buried wasn’t until a bunch of soldiers needed to be transported back to their state during the summer heat that somebody had to stop that and then morticians had a permanent job
Austin Hogan
2025-06-04 18:07:48 +0000 UTCI think TWD is a metaphor that uses an extreme situation to show how christlike people navigate the world full of monsters and zombie like humans. This is why there's a constant balance of good ethical people and horrible people. And a constant reminder of biblical teachings to guide our characters through. If you notice, every main character is faced with making decisions for or around dealing with horrible people and situations. While on a mission to make something and fix this world. And they are constantly surrounded by horrible people (like jesus) that they have to give grace to and show the way to until they either change for good or stay bad. This is why every bad or mean decision they make is so heavily represented as them "losing themselves". The show literally calls every main character to be christlike. And they either fold (Shane) or they rise (redacted).

2025-06-04 17:53:06 +0000 UTCMaggie didn't get introduced until season 2 she was never at the CDC
Guyton
2025-06-04 17:52:42 +0000 UTCand here I thought Aura Farming is what Goku and Vegeta do before tho go super saiyan? lmfao let me stop playing, I heard of it but never knew what it was
Fellerz
2025-06-04 17:44:27 +0000 UTCBrandon forgot, Maggie was never at the CDC, she appeared in season 2.
Latinblu1
2025-06-04 17:34:33 +0000 UTCin the comics the situation with Abraham and his family is explained a little more. His wife and daughter got sa'd while his son was held down and forced to watch while Abraham was on a run. When he got back he brutually murdered the men who did that and doing so essentially scared his family away to their deaths
Naomi
2025-06-04 17:28:40 +0000 UTCI can't stand Eugene's character. Or even the exaggerated world's saviour protector. And the following 1 plot/group per episode does not help... But ya'll make it funnier. Thanks for that. 😅
Vatti
2025-06-04 17:23:11 +0000 UTCYeah Abraham's family are morons hard to feel bad for them because literally those men had it coming period. L wife Rosita from what we've seen thus far is a far better partner. Actually I feel bad for the kids. And Eugene a clown he got balls to talk shit to Abraham like that.
Rasheed Mohammed
2025-06-04 17:17:39 +0000 UTCAura farming is just putting intention into whatever characteristic you are trying to portray. Often just through body language or physical characteristics. But it can also be verbal too, if you got a smooth voice or a gift of gab or something. It CAN be goofy activity. For example, Eugene's hair is goofy activity. But its just as often not goofy activity. Like Daryl riding his bike. It looks cool and fits his personality so its not him trying too hard.

2025-06-04 17:16:18 +0000 UTCLook at the flowers is still a wild line in the culmination of that episode to me. Like I spoiled myself already with Lizzie dying, but I didn’t know that Carol was the one who did it.

2025-06-04 17:13:29 +0000 UTCEpisode 3 was about brotherhood, as Bob shared what he had with homeless folk. They ate and Bob displayed his trademark humor, sharing a laugh over dinner.

2025-06-04 16:09:47 +0000 UTCAdison you must've missed the first sign about Abraham & Rosita, when Abraham told Tara he noticed the way she looks at Rosita last season when He thought Tara was helping Glenn find Maggie because She loves Glenn
