![]() But after the giant attention-grabbing light was set up, Strand states that he didn't want Alicia to follow the light, and that the growing wall of walkers outside the Tower would stop her from making it. What kind of "bad guy" would do such things? And I even understand why he wants to keep Alicia away, despite his love for her, and why he chose to kill Will in the end. (Image credit: AMC) WTF Is Strand's Thought Process Behind The Beacon Drawing More Walkers?īecause the Walking Dead franchise has delivered nuanced villains in the past, I can more easily buy into Strand's "my way or no way" philosophy, especially when he appears to be offering his followers genuinely enviable lives. Still, though, that doesn't tap into explaining why Will and anyone else - I'm looking at you, new parents Morgan and Grace - is choosing to continue risking their lives within that sour-yellow haze instead of booking it for Louisiana or at least North Texas. I guess promises of yoga and painting are powerful indeed. (It also bugs me that they're growing their own vegetation, but I guess there are ways to make all that seem less worrisome.) But while Strand's set-up can be justified in part, it's bonkers to imagine people from outside that immediate area choosing to go to a spot far closer to fallout-laden areas. In Strand's case, the fact that he previously thought the Tower would get wrecked by the blast means that it's too effing close to truly messed up areas. It's not as if there's a lack of land and abandoned buildings out there in 100% safer areas. With the story picking up a few months after nuclear bombs went off, logic would dictate that Season 7 should have started off with every single character in new locations far, far away from any Texas areas adjacent to those affected by the bombs. (Image credit: AMC) Why Did Any Fear The Walking Dead Characters Stay In And Around Fallout Areas? Now let's kick things off with some safety-wear confusion. Some of these are plot-related, some are situational to the characters, and while several of them could probably be explained with a fairly simple response - "That's just how things work in Fear the Walking Dead" - I certainly hope there are better answers as we head towards the inevitable Strand Vs. And while it definitely checked all the usual boxes for a Fear opener, the episode also offered up plenty of ostensibly curious and confusing details that need addressing. Titled "The Beacon," the installment picked up several months after all the nuclear explosions that closed out Season 6, and focused almost entirely Victor Strand's current whereabouts, via the introduction of Gus Halper's short-lived character Will. With AMC's The Walking Dead having recently wrapped up the first third of its eleventh and final season, the network kept its zombified primetime schedule intact with the premiere of Fear the Walking Dead Season 7. ![]()
