Abraham is Under Too Much Pressure in this Preview of "The Walking Dead" and Epis. 5 ("Self Help")

Epis. 5 of "The Walking Dead" airs tonight. This title was previously known as "The Choice." Now, it is simply called "Self Help." In this episode, Maggie (Lauren Cohan) and Glenn (Steven Yeun) head out with Abraham (Michael Cudlitz) and Eugene (Josh McDermitt) to Washington, D.C., to "save the world!" However, from a preview clip, this road trip does not go according to plan. A spoiler free preview of "Self Help" is hosted here.

Along with a thirty second preview clip, two more images have been released for this episode, along with a very tiny synopsis. One of the images shows Abraham fighting with a walker, knife in hand. So, it would seem that the characters' bus either breaks down, or the survivors stop for an unknown reason. A second, less action packed image shows Glenn, slightly bloodied. So, a fight, of some sorts, is sure to pop up in Epis. 5.

An unofficial trailer focuses on Abraham. He spouts exposition such as "we can't go back...we're at war, and retreat means we'd lose," along with other rousing (slightly menacing) lines. It appears that Abraham is starting to lose his marbles, or is deciding to go full Rambo in the zombie apocalypse.

The AMC's latest synopsis offers few clues. From the AMC site: "A new set of issues confront our group while on a mission. Will they be able to push through and survive these challenges? Or better yet, each other?" So, a further divide will split up the survivors even more. This is a similar plot device that occurred in Seas. 4 (dividing the survivors into smaller groups). Fans of the show can preview all of the available release details for "Self Help" below.

Airing Date: November 9th, 2014.

Cast: Steven Yeun, Lauren Cohan, Michael Cudlitz, and Christian Serratos.
