His father is known to have been a mechanical engineer, which most likely inspired Eugene's knowledge and interest in mechanical engineering, among other scientific knowledge. He was likely diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), which attributed to his personality quirks, obsessive knowledge, and rote memorization. At the age of six in 1984, Eugene and his family moved from Addison, Texas to Keller, Texas. In his teenage years, he became deeply interested in trains and convinced his parents to take him to Strasburg, Pennsylvania in order to see the train museum there. While there he became hooked on ice cream from a local dairy bar. He also started the anti-drug and alcohol coalition in his high school. In mid-1996, when Eugene turned 18, he left Keller to attend an unknown university and graduated with his BA in 2000. In his adult life, he lived in Dallas, Texas. He was an avid fan of video games. Being well read and possessing a vast amount of knowledge in many different areas, Eugene became an educator. In his adult life, Eugene showed great difficulty in social situations and never had a girlfriend. Inmates" After Glenn Rhee collapses from fighting off walkers, Tara Chambler uses the end of the latter's gun to kill the remaining walker. While she does so, they pull their truck up to her. After Tara sarcastically thanks them for their help, the trio exit their truck, to which Abraham tells her that she has "quite a mouth," then asks about what else she has.

Eugene insists on joining Rick and the others in escorting Maggie to Hilltop in the RV. When the group encounters the first blockade of Saviors, Eugene exits the vehicle with everyone else while Rick converses with one of the Saviors. Once back inside the RV, he and Sasha study a map and figure out an alternative route.The group comes across a line of walkers chained together blocking the road. Eugene notes that such an elaborate roadblock took a lot of people to accomplish. When the Saviors start firing at them from the woods, Eugene retreats back into the RV as Rick clears a path for them to continue. They encounter yet another roadblock, this time a giant wall of logs in the middle of the road. Eugene points out the tire marks and again comments that this took vast manpower and a lot of vehicles. The Saviors then hang their captive from a nearby overpass. The logs erupt in flames behind them, and the Savior remarks that it may be the last day on Earth for one of Rick's people. They return to the RV and drive off. Inside the RV, Eugene points out that the Saviors are probably looking for the RV and might not expect them to travel by foot. After nightfall, Rick and Eugene go over the plan: Eugene will drive the empty RV to lure the Saviors. Eugene hands Rick a recipe for making bullets, in the event that he gets killed. Rick smiles and says that they're lucky to have Eugene with them. "You're a survivor," Abraham tells Eugene. They hug. Eugene then gets into the RV and drives away. It is revealed Eugene was captured and beaten by the Saviors, and he is lined up with the others. Negan then exits the RV and tells the group that he is going to 'beat the holy hell' out of one of them as punishment for killing his men. He begins his game of Eeny, Meeny, Miny, Moe and as his bat crashes down on one of the survivors.
