So after last week's deal with pirates, this week we got Alicia and Travis held captive. So yeah, let's see how this turns out. As always, comment before (like 7 minutes), while, and after you watch.

PETER BAELISH!!
I hope this episode picks up, for real. I especially liked the first season, but this second one has kind of made me lose interest on the story and the characters, mainly because there are some scenes I find confusing. I couldn't understand what was happening at the start of "Monster," and that was the season opener.
Did that bitch just jack her steak? WTF?
Hm, this situation with Reed seems familiar...
Expects Connor's float to burn down to flare gun.
CHARLIE?! Wait, Sam?! No, what was her name… MAX?! Ugh, ALEX?!
I swear the Fear The Walking Dead timeline is so fucked up. Pardon my French, but that sentence needed emphasis on the fact that it doesn't make sense.
Alex sounds right
This is where screwing people over backfires.
Connor: I'm willing to trade my brother for your friends
yeah I agree! but after I watched it a bunch I think that LA is being firebombed.
shes prego give her a break!
Why would she want Travis when Strand is the one who screwed her over?
This. Is. Still. So. Confusing! Can anyone elaborate a paragraph that explains why Jack is obsessed over Alicia, and why he is up and leaving his—apparently reasonable—leader, Connor?
Those people are going to kill Alex off as soon as they realize Alex has nothing left for them.
This is the second time I've missed the first twenty minutes and now I'm so confused.
exactly!
Trust me, you'd be even more confused had you watched the first twenty minutes.
Reed is quite similar to Randall. Like, it's not even funny.
The psycho brother that was abused by their dad, both assholes that like causing chaos and destruction, both have a mostly reasonable relative that's the leader of their respective group, both get captured and tortured for information, both continue talking shit, and both get used as leverage. If they kill him and/or try to trade him by the end of this episode, I swear...
edit: well look at that, speak of the fucking devil.
I just uh flagged your comment, you know, never positive if everyone has played it.
Anyway, add trade-off via radio and what the fuck
Well shit.
And now Chris killed him
if they do the fucking walker trade thing here, too, I swear to god
Revenge kill.
I'm not sure, looks like it was in the side of the mouth, so that's unlikely.
Plus I doubt the spin-off would do that before the actual show did.
THEY ARE GOING TO DO IT OH MY GOD.
You can't do this before the main show does it...
This would be like if the spin-off did cannibals before the main show did.
Bad joke, AMC, TTG, or whoever the hell is responsible for this parallel. This is just too much for it not to be intentional. This TV Show is near to done for me.
I mean, I'll watch it, but I'll pretend that it is a sit-com, or a soap opera.
Edit: Oh God, a fucking brown bag on his head. Are you fucking kidding me?
Damn Chris
I just noticed they both got there faces ruined.
Edit: I just noticed they were both bit on the arm also.
It's probably just coincidence. A ridiculous one, sure, but a coincidence nonetheless.
I was wondering the same thing.
Well, if it's worth anything, this was filmed way before, and I doubt Telltale or AMC had any idea the other was doing it.
It's everyone's favorite Captain Jack.
No, I liked Connor.
You did? Really?
Do y'all think anyone from the Clark-Manawa family is actually going to die? I can't really picture it.
He had a lot of potential and could have been an interesting antagonist/villain. But nope, the writers had to kill him off way too early.
Just like Norma.
The trade was cringe-worthy. How did two of the three men manage to get bitten by Reed? Ah, well. Okay. That's, uh… that was an episode. And Jack was totally not random. And Michelle Ang's—Charlie's actress's—performance was totally not bad. And the camera shots were totally not confusing. And the fight of Alicia and Vida was spot-on. Oh, and Connor's float was totally not underdeveloped.
Well to be fair, it was only a 3 episode miniseries, compared to a 15 episode season, there's a lot more they could have done with Connor than Norma.
Wait so are we going to get confirmation if Alex is dead or alive?
