Intellectually I know you're right. But it's just become a visceral thing with me, the way he stands there shuddering and looking like he's going to cry. I keep hoping someone will pop him, and I'm so tired of seeing him rescued by girls.
I wish Milton had lived and joined the group.
Eugene used a fire truck hose to save the group. Eugene saved Tara (even though he was scared). Eugene knows how to pick locks (much quieter than using a hatchet like Rick used, so much less likely to attract walkers). He knows how to make batteries out of every day objects. He helps repair the solar panels in Alexandria.
He does act pretty cowardly around the walkers (he’s not going to become a melee fighter any time soon), but he does have strengths in other areas.
