Madison struggles to cope as a large number of refugees flood into the hotel, including someone familiar but unexpected.

Lorenzo James Henrie, Elizabeth Rodriguez and Drew Scott are on Talking Dead tonight.
I’m most like Chris and survived this episode (yet didn’t show up at the hotel). Season finale next week.
So, we found out Chris really is a shit, and spent the rest of the episode exploring parental angst. Seemed like something that would fit in perfectly with afternoon soap operas. Tell me, why do we need a zombie apocalypse as background for this program’s themes? And next week will feature lots of gratuitous gunfire and zombies in massed attacks. Where have all the zombies been hiding the last couple of weeks? We should go find that rabbit hole and dump some cement into it. Make Baja a lot safer place.
Well, usually I’ll say “If you think the show is that bad, watch something else and don’t bother the rest of us with your whining” - but that really was tedious. All the parental emo stuff bored me. I was enjoying Nick’s storyline a lot more.
At least we have hope that Chris is dead, so there’s that.
When Madison said she needed to tell Alicia something, I thought, good, she’s going to tell her that she has been wrong to pay more attention to Nick than her, and that she was stupid to turn on the lights at night, endangering everyone–including Alicia–on the small chance that Nick would see it.
Instead, she was like “Oh, by the way, your Dad actually committed suicide. Sucks to be you. I sure wish Nick was here.”
He (or rather the actor who plays him) apparently will be a recurring character on Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D this season, so I’m wondering if his character in this show bites it in the season finale.
BTW, anyone notice (from the grave markers) that’s it’s still 2010 in the FtWD timeline?
Yes. I took it to mean that this isn’t a “future history” series, but instead is an alternative history. You know, a branch on the continuum where the word zombie was never invented.
I wasn’t too crazy about that scene, either. How is the father’s suicide relevant, at this point?
Well that was when the zombie apocalypse started in walking dead, and it hasn’t been all that long here.
Yeah, even the parent show has only made it to about year 2 the zombie apocalypse.
Yeah, I didn’t have a problem with it; actually I thought it was a nice bit of attention to continuity.
