The episode opens in a jungle with the little boy from the last episode. He’s looking at the river and it is filled with bodies. The little boy is Daniel.

Daniel and Ofelia wake up when they hear the shot (Strand killing Thomas). Daniel tells Ofelia they have to go. Ofelia can’t keep up when they run outside. Daniel says she has to keep up and then she scratches off her face. Then Daniel wakes up for real. Ofelia is still asleep in her bed, and thankfully, her face intact.

The group all discover Thomas dead in his bed. Celia is very upset, slaps Strand and says his soul is empty. She asks why Madison is there, and Madison says she’s Strand’s friend. Continue reading “13. Shiva, Season Two, Episode Seven. Original Air Date = May 22, 2016”

Inside a church in Mexico, with little alter boys singing – very Catholic. The background colors are all gold and brown, very religious. The priest is sitting by the alter, looking haggard. There are worried looking parishioners inside, listening to the service. In Spanish, the priest says the times we are living in are testing our belief. They all get communion. Where is our god and why would he test us like this? The priest says that he knows the answer. The god he knows wouldn’t do such a thing. This isn’t our god. This evil wants us to turn away from him and our faith. It feeds our doubt. Don’t give in to it. Do not feed it.  Everyone is getting communion while he gives his speech. They go outside and pick up weapons. Continue reading “12. Sicut Cervus, Season Two, Episode Six. Original Air Date = May 15, 2016”

We see someone cutting cilantro and shallots and garlic, salt, oil, peppers, and then he throws a chop of some sort into a hot pan. Connor, who is holding Alicia captive, is making food. He’s watching skiing on the TV. Pregnant woman walks in and observes. Connor says that his NY strips are what get people through the day. He made the NY strip for Alicia. Alicia wants to see Travis, but Connor wants to get to know her first. Connor thinks she would be happy here. Connor says that Jack has a sense about her. The TV and electricity go out. He tells her to stay put. Pregnant woman is watching her. Alicia looks at the food and begins to eat. She barely takes two bites and the pregnant woman takes it away from her and locks her inside. Alicia runs down the hall checking locked doors, and finally finds a porthole that leads her to the top of the boat.  She looks around. Their boat is sitting in a dock, but it’s not in the water, it’s on a platform – dry dock. The boat looks like it’s being worked on – maybe some kind of maintenance. Anyway, it’s not in the water, and it’s not going anywhere. Continue reading “11. Captive, Season Two, Episode Five. Original Air Date = May 8, 2016”

It’s night time and we see waves crashing into a pier.  Someone is swimming in the dark, heading to shore. Nick? Yeah it’s Nick. He’s naked, or close to it. He has a plastic bag tied to his arm. Must have been a tough swim because he looks exhausted. He finally makes it to shore, evading the searchlights of a helicopter scanning the shoreline. A little ways from shore, we also see  boats with search lights too.

Nick puts his clothes on – kept dry by the plastic bag. Pretty brave of him to swim in the dark, when we’ve seen lots of walkers on the beach. Continue reading “10. Blood in the Streets, Season Two, Episode Four. Original Air Date = May 1, 2016”

We hear muted screaming in the background, and see debris floating in the ocean water. As the camera pans back, we can see that it is the remains of a plane wreck. We see Alex from Flight 462 surface from underneath the water, then she dives looking for something, and she surfaces. She calls out for Jake and sees him floating with some wreckage. He’s severely burned on his head and face.  There are a few other survivors and they all end up on one of the yellow life rafts from the plane. Right off the bat one of the guys who joins them on the raft has a big bite on his ankle. They beat him in the head and over the side he goes. Sometime later Alex is trying to help Jake by putting alcohol on his wound to disinfect it. He screams. Night time, the survivor in the suit tries to kill Jake but Alex stops him by hitting him hard in what looks like the throat, and then tosses him over the side of the raft. That’s some guilt she’s carrying around from taking Jake’s mom’s seat on the plane. Continue reading “9. Ouroboros, Season Two, Episode Three. Original Air Date = April 24, 2016”

The shore and beach, maybe at dawn. Looks nice and inviting. Two little kids are heading toward the water. Oh no, there’s a a walker standing up in the surf. He sees the kids, but they don’t yet see him.  Ooops, the first walker is now joined by one of his walker pals.  The kids broke a cardinal rule – don’t ever turn your back on the ocean – or the walkers!  Can’t the kids hear them? Oh, there’s a fence between the kids and walkers, well, I guess that’s okay then. The kids are now running away from the fence.  Now we see a sky shot, showing us the sunrise and the clouds.  Credits. Continue reading “8. All Fall Down, Season Two, Episode Two.

It’s night and we see Maddie from the back. Fires have sprung up everywhere on the beach by Strand’s house. She’s looking out toward the ocean.  Nick, Alicia, and Ofelia are on an inflatable raft headed toward the Abigail. Travis, Maddie and Chris are on the beach with Liza’s body. They’re worried that Strand won’t come back for them.

Strand turns on the controls on The Abigail.  Nick sees Strand at the controls. He’s looking at something else in the distance, all in flames. It could be people on other boats. Strand directs Nick to get the inflatable raft and pick up the others on the beach. Continue reading “7. Monster, Season Two, Episode One. Original Air Date = April 10, 2016”
