The Walking Dead 5.8 Review - 5 Talking Points From "Coda"

3. The Church Has Fallen

When Gabriel flees the church through the floorboards to go and seek out the school for evidence of what happened to Bob, he not only finds a half-eaten human leg on a grill but also a school full of walkers (un)dying to devour his flesh. He runs back to the church like the sniveling wimp that he is and, after Carl and Michonne chop away at the boarded up door, is finally pulled inside. But it's too late and the swarm overtakes the church, with the three barely escaping with baby Judith, before leaving the church in the hands of the dead. Another safehouse has fallen, this one thanks to the complete ineptitude and ignorance of Father Gabriel, who's quickly approaching Lori Grimes territory as far as being annoying and worthy of becoming a zombie feast. If he doesn't man up pretty soon he's going to be totally insufferable.
