“Self Help” and “Consumed” *THE WALKING DEAD* S5 E5 and 6 REACTION

[@sabrinawalker1421]

I don’t think anyone has explained it but Rick was not in a hospital in Atlanta when he woke up, it was the outskirts because he had to ride into a major city because that’s where he thought Lori would go.

[@christal1978marie]

That's Right. Rick was in Harrison Memorial Hospital in King County Georgia. He was waiting to be transferred to Atlanta (Grady Memorial) where 2 characters ended up......

[@iketurner8212]

18:29 "So.............back to it" 🏌‍♂️🤯 lol

[@amayaw2789]

The “back to it” reference🤣. Great reaction guys!

[@tonyschannel7438]

Just a reminder when you get to episode 8 there is a post credit scene.

[@KrystalsGrace]

In the comics Abraham was out getting stuff and a group of guys I believe were his family’s neighbors, assaulted his wife and kids and when he came back he 💀 them for what they did to his family, that’s why you see bruises on her in the background. But what they saw Abraham do they didn’t trust him after so they left while he was sleeping and ended up getting eaten by walkers. Pretty traumatizing if you ask me

[@JacksWorldYT]

I believe the same events took place in the show, regardless it was one of the most heartbreaking backstory’s EVER 😭!!!

[@lisainthecold4287]

Grady is a real hospital in Atlanta but not the one Rick woke up in. I love how Eugene was in the self help section watching them get busy. Lol. Loving the reactions, you guys are hilarious and really make it fun rewatching the show with you both! ❤️🧟‍♀️

[@JacksWorldYT]

18:31 hunter that was DIABOLICAL 😭 💀 😂

[@brosnshows]

I know right

[@shilohsyniski]

Well you both need to be there on reactions I need my giggles and side eyes 👀

[@nh9894]

Love your reactions as usual ❤ my favourite reactors 👍

[@dravenquinn264]

This is not a spoiler but this does reference the comics :D This is why the episode can be hard to understand The editors failed to realize how many people have not read the comics and the full story really wasn’t explained well in the flashback scenes. The comics have the Abraham story that his former neighbours/friends brutalized his wife and children while he was away if you look closely in the show his wife Ellen has bruises on her face so it is implied subtly and when Abraham returned and found out what happened he killed the men who did this. His wife and children in the TV show were terrified he murdered those men that’s why they ran away The only way we can reason Abraham killing the men was completely justified is if we know the comic backstory. The problem is that the flashback failed to give the entire picture of why Abraham did what he did and the fact it was near the beginning of the collapse So if you go back in your mind society had just collapsed in the back story so this was not normal behaviour to exact revenge like that. For us as viewers it makes it even harder to understand the reaction of the wife and because the scenes for the backstory were incomplete Just realize that by this time in the story of Rick and our crew we are getting used seeing the brutality of lawlessness and revenge/justice killings (The Claimers and The Terminites deaths) So the connection aren’t easily made to understand Abraham’s back story without knowing the comic story. In the episode if you look carefully you’ll see the bodies of his wife and children on the ground you see a corpse with a red head band this is Abraham’s wife Ellen Then it shows his red headed son face down and piece of luggage on the ground and his daughter to the right also face down This flash is only three seconds long so it is easy to miss and it is right after Eugene is hit and collapses after Abraham beat him When Abraham finds his wife and children dead this is why Abraham was going to kill himself not only because he felt alone/ isolated but also because he felt he had terrified his wife and children and caused them to run away from him and be killed by walkers. Hope that helps to bring some clarity :)

Rick woke up in Harrison Memorial Hospital and Beth is in Grady Memorial Hospital. Also, scratches don't do anything, the virus is in the walker's mouth, infection comes from bites.

[@cleogriffith9921]

You can definitely get the infection from a scratch, Morgan told Rick don’t let them scratch you bcuz I think that’s how his wife died

[@korivex742]

@@cleogriffith9921 Morgan's wife died from a bite... he asked about scratches and once Glenn checked Maggie for scratches but not one did anyone every get infected and die from a scratch.

[@rebornjm]

It’s definitely not the same hospital, but could possibly be the same hospital that the Vatos group was in, because Grady hospital is one of the main hospitals of Atlanta and it’s near midtown Atlanta, the area they were scavenging in during season one

[@maddielkaye]

The “so… back to it” was completely unnecessary and also quite genius 🤣

[@dougmoodie8713]

Abraham is a soldier, it’s possible he’s a combat veteran and has a history of PTSD associated violence, that could be why his wife and kids were so scared of him. That’s my take on it 😢

[@AvaLight143]

Mine as well

[@annapurna4054]

Did you catch the easter egg in "Consumed"? When Daryl and Carol leave the women's shelter the next day, you can see a tank positioned in an intersection just down the street from them. It was the same tank Rick crawled into to escape the horde at the end of the very first TWD episode in Season 1. Also, when they were filming the van going off the bridge, it kept landing upside down. (It's impossible for it to land right side up from the starting position it was in.) They finally used a crane to dangle it over the edge and drop it so it would land right side up. This wasn't in your edit, but did you catch the book that fell out of Daryl's bag in the scene where he was trying to pry open the door (right after Noah stole their weapons from them)? It was a book about treating survivors of childhood abuse that he took from the shelter. That was a pretty powerful moment since it showed us Daryl recognizes he has lasting emotional scars (not just physical) from being abused as a child, and that he wants to work on recovery and healing. It's also an actual workbook that's used to treat real-life abuse survivors. As for "Self Help", I will never understand how Abe's wife could have thought Abe would ever be a threat to her and their children. Yes, he went rage-mode on those guys, but it was only because they were planning to do some pretty awful things to his family. What did she expect him to do? Stand by and let it happen? 🙄

[@shilohsyniski]

Back to it 👀👀👀 cute one hunter lol

[@shilohsyniski]

And as for the Atlanta thing he was closer to home in the hospital Lori mentioned they were going to transfer him to Atlanta but it didn't happen

[@cincin0722]

Rick was in a hospital in King county and never ever ever ever goes back

[@tonyschannel7438]

Well Rick does go back to King County in season 3 episode 12 "Clear", he doesn't go back to the hospital though

[@cincin0722]

@@tonyschannel7438 that's what I meant never goes back to the hospital

[@AD-pd3ov]

It's literally the same hospital because I was there. I saw where Rick walked out of the hospital and climbed the hill. I even saw the firetruck covered in a blue tarp before season five even came out. We took pictures of it. I sat on the curb in Alexandria before I knew it was Alexandria. I could explain this better if it wasn't a comment. I probably should mention I live a few hours away from where TWD is filmed.

[@dravenquinn264]

Comic Comparisons : Eugene’s story goes the exact same In the comics he says he lies because he knows he’s too weak to survive on his own His only advantage was lying and his knowledge as a high school science teacher he admits that he’s not strong like Abraham he’s not a leader like Rick he’s not good looking like Rosita He used what he knew what to do best If I was in his shoes I would’ve done the same.

[@shilohsyniski]

Ok I just got home ran and turned you tube on and was eating I almost choked on my salad when you guys explained what you did the REWATCHING 😅😅😅😅😅😅 I miss you guys 😅❤ now on to watching your reaction 😂

[@bridgettlofgren2489]

Zing Zong Bling brush your teeth goodbye...Oh Anthony! 😂

[@hippielady123]

Ya Rick was in a King County hospital, not an Atlanta one

[@cindyspangler3982]

I cried as Carol drove away, I was still so mad at Rick, and that "Bad Blood" theme as she cried in the car. "Consumed is one of my fav episodes.

[@theresaharper8833]

Love you guys. Y’all crack me up lol

[@onetallpheeesh]

The hospital filming location might have been the same lol but i think theyre confusing two different facts

[@hippielady123]

What a preview 😂 see that's what happens when you wait awhile to watch lol. Self help cracks me up! Ya all use #Caryl fans wanted Daryl and Carol to be together in that episode.

[@JacksWorldYT]

506 irritates me so much because that fucking van flipping 360 degrees with like less than 50 feet to do so is one of the most outrageous & unrealistic things thus far 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@foolthecube6060]

Missed you guys. Can't catch you as often as I'd like as I seem to live in medical offices these days or you are ahead of me on something I'm trying to watch first time with my son and I don't watch things ahead of him. Anthony Congrats on the home making. I know its dated but Please play left for dead live and finish the tell tale games. That would be a helluva thing. P.S. I don't hate Eugene right now but I'd of kicked his pasty backside for pushing so stupidly hard. Big red too. I'd shave his mustache after and glue it to his eyebrows.

[@no1caresaboutevan300]

When u finish the show I'd watch:rick and michonne spin off, Dead city and Dixion,

[@melissagilby3959]

Eugene deserved that punch from Abraham but you do have to be careful in situations like that! I had a high school friend who was being a jerk and trying to pick a fight…a random guy came over and punched him trying to stop the fight from escalating and my friend fell back and hit the back of his head on a concrete kerb..he unfortunately died and the random guy had to face a manslaughter charge! The whole thing was a mess and shouldn’t have happened 😢

[@DJP-cy9qq]

the show got a new writer for the show or what ever so the walker behave different after the first 2 seasons or sum like that someone mentions climbing walkers ep1 they where trying to climb
