The Walking Dead Season 5 Episode 4: Slabtown


Midnight Man

Beth wakes up in Grady Memorial Hospital, in Atlanta. She’s been treated for injuries and she is well now, but she soon finds out that those that rescued and have treated her want something in return. She is forced to help treat, care for, and possibly even dispose of the patients that reside in the hospital. She is also required to attend to those that live in and run the hospital. And anything and everything that she consumes has a cost attached to it and soon realizes that she is caught up in an existence that equates to little more than slavery.

She meets a nice guy, a doctor, and even though he’s caught up in the same trap that she is, he has been there from the beginning. He explains to her what it was like when it all started and why he doesn’t leave. How the city fell when it was bombed and that they found a kid that had napalm burns. He made a deal to save the kid with limited resources and that the kid would make up for what was given him with services. He takes her to the first floor of the hospital, which is over run by walkers and tells her that with the world the way that it is, “its better in here than it is out there”.

She also meets the woman in charge, Dawn, who has facilitated the rescue of many that now reside and work at the hospital. Unfortunately, she is also somewhat of a control freak, that is hell-bent on convincing and/or forcing anyone that is at the hospital to stay and work for the little community that she and others have built there. She is borderline ruthless, but is convinced that it can work if everyone does their part.

Gorman is the bad one. He, like all those in charge is dressed in the garb that is typical of an Atlanta police officer, complete with communication equipment, a badge, and of course, a gun. Although, he doesn’t completely conform to the idea of what a police officer should be. He believes that those in charge should get anything that they want and he has taken his privilege with several women and he also believes that Beth should belong to him. He catches Beth in a precarious situation trying to steal a key from Dawn’s office, to make her escape, and tries to blackmail her into being ‘nice’ to him. Unfortunately for him, and out of his line of sight, there is another resident in that office, Joan, another resident of the hospital that has been forced into servitude , that has previously killed herself and begins to turn into one of the walking dead. As he and Beth talk, he pushes her up against the office desk. She bashes him over the head with a jar full of lollypops and throws him down on it, she times it just right because the moment that he hits the desk Joan jumps up and bites him in the neck, and blood goes everywhere. While Gorman is being eaten by Joan, Beth casually leaves the room as if nothing has happened. Now that is poetic justice.

Noah, yet another resident of the hospital that has been forced into servitude, is the one that came up with the escape plan and convinced Beth to steal the key. Originally, both he and his father were both rescued by Dawn and her cohorts. Dawn claims that his father died in an attempt to treat him, but Noah has come to believe that they killed his father because they believed that he would have been able to oppose them and would have fought back. As he and Beth attempt their escape they run into a few problems, climbing down an elevator shaft, the dark places of the first floor, and avoiding walkers. Noah makes it, but Beth is left behind and is forced to stay.

After the doctor patches Beth back up from the injury that she sustained from Dawn for her attempted escape, and helping Noah, she confronts him about a patient that she accidentally killed because he gave her the wrong information about treating him. She finds out that he purposely gave her that wrong information in order to kill that patient because he was another doctor and felt that he would be less valuable to Dawn if he wasn’t the only doctor that resided there. As she walked down the hall toward the doctor she had an implement in her hand, supposedly to attack the doctor, but then she sees them bring in another patient on a gurney, its Carol, someone that she knows.
