‘Fear the Walking Dead’ Recap: Boat Full of Idiots Meets Plane Full of Zombies

The “Ouroboros” episode of Fear the Walking Dead starts off with a whimper when Abigail’s engines overheat and cause the boat to stall. It turns out to be a zombie with its arm jammed in the water intake for the cooling system. While Travis works on removing zombie parts from the boat, everyone’s attention turns to an accident on the beach.

Flight 462 crashed onto the beach, creating a great opportunity for the gang to go scavenging for medicine and culottes. So Daniel takes Nick, Chris, and Alicia onto the mainland, and despite specific instructions they split up.

Soon the beach is overrun with the walking dead as the group hurriedly make their escape. They also make a new friend, Alex, who is with her badly burned friend (brother?) Jake. They try to bring Alex and Jake on board the boat, but Strand won’t allow it. Travis comes up with the idea of towing the two newcomers, but after a short while Strand cuts the towline and speeds away.

Fear the Walking Dead airs Sundays at 9 p.m. on AMC.

See why life is a lot harder when zombies swim.
