"Welcome to the Tombs" is the sixteenth and final episode of the third season, and 35th episode overall of the post-apocalyptic horror television series The Walking Dead, which aired on AMC on March 31, 2013. In the episode, The Governor (David Morrissey) and Rick Grimes (Andrew Lincoln) prepare for the upcoming assault on the prison. Tyreese (Chad L. Coleman) and Sasha (Sonequa Martin-Green) decide to not participate in the assault and stay on guard duty before preparing to leave as the citizens of Woodbury become increasingly alarmed at The Governor's erratic behaviour. Meanwhile, Andrea (Laurie Holden) struggles to escape The Governor's torture chamber.
"Welcome to the Tombs" was directed by Ernest Dickerson and written by Glen Mazzara. However, the scenes involving Andrea were re-written by Scott Gimple and re-filmed one month after production ended to deliver a more satisfying conclusion. The episode explores the theme of embracing humanity and civilization.
The episode features the death of Andrea, who is bitten by a reanimated Milton in The Governor's torture chamber. It also features the final overall appearance of Sarah Wayne Callies as Lori Grimes via hallucination, as well as Dallas Roberts as Milton Mamet. Guest appearances include Jose Pablo Cantillo, Melissa Ponzio, Emily Kinney, Chad L. Coleman, and Sonequa Martin-Green.
