10 Stupidest Decisions Made By Characters On The Walking Dead
4. Beth Tries To Kill Dawn
The hospital arc of season five is really quite unpopular due to the pointlessness of it all, seeing the group come back to Atlanta just to find and rescue Beth. On the very cusp of doing so, Beth ruins everything by trying to stab Dawn and ending up getting shot through the head, making the last three episodes feel like a big waste of time.
Watching the scene where Beth dies will leave you speechless. What was Beth even thinking? There are two groups of people both with guns aimed at each other, and you think it's a good idea to try and stab one of the leaders while you're in the middle of it all?
It was always going to backfire. What makes it worse is the fact Beth tried to do it with a small pair of scissors. It might've worked if she went for Dawn's neck or something, but she stabs her in the chest?
Beth's death was tragic and a real low point for Maggie and Daryl, but really there's no one else to blame but Beth herself. The group could've always come back to save Noah another time.
