"Who's the boy? Who is the boy with the ratty hair?"
Written by Carla Ching
Directed by Gerardo Naranjo

"You almost blew the trade. What if Elena hadn't managed to get those supplies? What about Victor?"
Alicia Clark

After one of his scouts leave, Alejandro starts to doubt the loyalty of his allies. Meanwhile, Madison needs to save Victor after revenge is taken.


Tropes:

  • Beard of Sorrow: In the final shot, Travis sports this. Judging by the expression on his face, something bad happened to him. The last time we saw him in "Do Not Disturb", he only had Perma-Stubble.
  • Call-Back: One of the cruxes of the plot is of Madison still believing that Nick will return after his departure back at Celia's estate.
  • Casual Danger Dialogue: Strand doesn't lose his snarker attitude, despite him bleeding out from a stab wound.
    Andreas: Your heart doesn't have enough blood to pump to all your organs.
    Strand: Should I be writing my will?
  • Good-Times Montage: The hotel survivors partake in one, which involves fishing and surfing, among many things.
  • Lighthouse Point: The hotel lights that were turned on by Madison signaled their position to anyone, including Travis.
  • Wham Shot:
    • One that sets the stage for this episode. Strand heads out to open the door... and standing in front of him is a very pissed Ilene, who stabs him in the stomach.
    • The final scene is of someone looking at the hotel lights. The camera is from the back, and it turns around to reveal that it's Travis.
  • What the Hell, Hero?: Alicia calls out Madison for trying to hold on hope for Nick's return, believing it's nothing more than a pipe dream.
    Alicia: He chose what's out there over us.
    Madison: Maybe he changed his mind.
    Alicia: I never changed my mind.

"I'm here. Why isn't that enough?"

These survivors show how possible it is to start over in a world filled with zombies.
