Featured review
The episode explores the theme of power dynamics in a lawless society, as Otto exerts control over his community through fear and manipulation
At night, the helicopter is attacked and Travis is shot and bleeding out. He falls to his death much to Alicia's horror. After the helicopter crash, Alicia and Jake, Troy's brother, carry Luciana to the ranch on foot. At Broke Jaw Ranch, Madison and Nick meet Jeremiah Otto and become suspicious of the place. Alicia's group arrives and Jeremiah agrees to treat Luciana in the infirmary if provided she has a pulse. Nick complies and Luciana is taken to the infirmary. Madison silently grieves Travis' death.
At the Rosarito Beach Hotel, Strand allows many angry refugees inside the gates, falsely claiming he is a doctor to calm them and save Hector and Elena from their wrath. Following the claim, Elena orders Strand to leave before his lie enrages the survivors but not before he checks on Ilene, the woman who stabbed him. They chat and she leaps off her balcony but before giving him keys to a Jaguar.
In the second episode of the third season, "The New Frontier," "Fear the Walking Dead" continues to explore the harsh realities of the post-apocalyptic world. The episode focuses on Madison and Nick's attempts to find a new community after escaping from the military compound. They encounter a group of survivors led by Jeremiah Otto, who offers them refuge at his ranch. However, tensions arise as Madison learns more about Otto's past and the dark secrets of the ranch.
One of the most memorable scenes in this episode is when Madison confronts Otto about his past actions, highlighting the moral ambiguity of survival in the apocalypse. The episode also delves into the theme of family dynamics, as Madison tries to protect her children while navigating the dangerous world they live in.
"The New Frontier" also explores the theme of power dynamics in a lawless society, as Otto exerts control over his community through fear and manipulation. This episode sets the stage for the complex and morally challenging situations the characters will face throughout the season.
