Strand insists that they can’t come on the boat because the boy will die and be infected. We know she’s suffered through a lot and even killed off a couple of the other survivors to keep her hurt friend alive. Is the satellite compromised or there is something wrong with Rosarita? ‘This is the worst’ĭaniel brings Charlie, the woman who survived the flight, and her burned friend back to the boat. He can’t get whomever is supposed to be on the other end of the satellite phone to pick up. This being Strand, it’s all still a bit sketchy. Madison’s right in that they need a destination, if only for a sense of purpose. Travis isn’t so keen on going, though perhaps not for the right reason: what’s the difference between being trapped with Strand on a boat and trapped with Strand in a fortified home? Not much. Turns out he has a fortress with food, water and even gardens – gardens! I don’t know what the apocalypse would be like if we couldn’t hide away in the scent of some pretty flowers. Still, he seems to have a bit of a breakthrough, agreeing to let them come along. He’s right, but Strand still blows up and insists that his rules are the only ones that matter. When Daniel finds out Strand is headed for Baja – Mexico, not California, for those of you who missed geography – he tells Madison and thinks she’s the best to confront Strand.
(Sorry, Nick, but you’re no Carol.) What happened to the drugs? Did he leave them behind? Were they painkillers he took for himself? Who knows? ‘You still don’t trust me’ After getting back to the boat, however, he only gives Ofelia the rosary beads. He survives by faking death, just as he did when he was an addict. Nick explains his competence as an extension of his junkie life in the pre-apocalyptic world. But between this discovery, the rosary and the zombie clogging the boat, this episode felt like a string of recycled plot devices from the original series: can we get some fresh material, please? He has learned the oldest trick in the Walking Dead book: if you smell like a zombie, they leave you alone. When Daniel, Chris, Alicia, and the airplane’s mystery woman are about to be done in by the zombies, Nick comes and saves them, covered in zombie blood. If anything, it’s amazing that a show this gory can still find ways to surprise us with its imagination for the disgusting ways people can die. Then he finds himself in a pit where blue crabs are eating a zombie. He finds a captain’s shirt for himself and a floppy hat for Alicia, and most importantly, he finds rosary beads and the right medication. Nick again proves himself MVP of the kids, though it’s no high bar to pass and he suffers from some of their stupidity, maybe by association. She, too, doesn’t seem to have learned a basic rule of the new world: there’s plenty of time to get all emo with relief once everyone is safe. When the zombie herd is running for the group and she finds out Nick is alive, she wastes precious time hugging her brother instead of immediately getting on the raft. He may yet become one of the series’ rare protagonists that you hope ends up on the wrong side of a walker.Īlicia isn’t as bad as Chris, but she’s close. Chris decides the most humane thing is to kill the doomed man, but, being Chris, when he finally manages the task, he’s hunky-dory, as if the wrenching experience had no emotional impact at all. He seems to enjoy dispatching the zombie, but is tortured by the survivor, whose injuries are so severe that his spine is exposed. He wanders off and finds a survivor and two zombies in some wreckage. Unfamiliar with the new ways of cable marketing, Daniel agrees to take the kids in search of antibiotics for Ofelia.Ĭhris, who remains the worst, does what comes naturally.
#FEAR THE WALKING DEAD SEASON TWO EPISODE TWO SERIES#
They want to loot the baggage of a crashed airplane visible on the coast, thinking it’ll hold supplies, but of course this is the wreckage of Flight 462, of the “zombies on a plane” web series that AMC started running – a spinoff within a spinoff. While the boat is stalled, the kids have an awful idea, which seems to be all that they do. Read more ‘Don’t keep us at the kids’ table’
