"Monsters" is the third episode of the eighth season of the post-apocalyptic horror television series The Walking Dead, which aired on AMC on November 5, 2017.

The episode was written by Matthew Negrete and Channing Powell, and directed by Greg Nicotero.

It also features the final appearances of Morales (Juan Pareja) and Eric Raleigh (Jordan Woods-Robinson).

Finding no guns elsewhere, the two take Gracie, the infant Rick found earlier, and leave to join with Aaron's forces.

Just as Jesus tries to intervene a horde of walkers appears, allowing some of the Saviors (including Jared) to escape.

Morgan attempts to give chase and fires on the escapees, killing one, before Jesus and Tara stop him.

At the Hilltop, Gregory returns and begs to be let back in to Maggie, but she demands that he tells her what happened at the Sanctuary, seeing that he is driving the car assigned to Gabriel.

The site's consensus reads: Despite featuring significant deaths and action sequences, "Monsters" struggles to make meaningful progress in the season's overall story.
