Finally got to watch the last bit. Still hoping for a horrible painful death for the mom.
It's the end of the world as she knows it, and she's still stuck on a one-sided pissing contest with Travis' ex wife. Dumb, dumb, dumb. Travis MIGHT have learned something, but GOD, is he wimpy. My money is on Daniel and Travis' ex working together to get 'their' people out (because OF COURSE she'll feel guilty for pointing out the kid a s a junkie), then both will die for the creep to escape.
Ruben Blades is still the best actor on the show. I'd watch one with just him--lol.

The woods are lovely dark and deep
Watching the latest show, the doctor arriving on the scene and taking the injured and sick to a 'medical facility' made me think of Nazi Germany when the old, infirm and handicapped were the first to be exterminated. I don't think they are being moved to be 'helped.'

Also that kid stealing the poor old man's morphine and hearing the man gasp for breath because of that kid's selfishness just wanted to make me SCREAM!!!!
We know his mother caught him tossing someone else's house, hope she knows why and makes him pay.

Just weeding out the most likely to be a drain on resources.

First, you have people rioting because they think the police and the national guard/army are shooting innocent people.... then they start shooting innocent people, then there's a war on three fronts, mutinies, civilians fighting back, and the increasing swarms of the dead, no wonder the zombie apocalypse happened... I think the reasoning why on this show so far is what keeps it compelling to me....

I have been thinking of the possibilities of them stopping at no cost to get Junkie Depp back. I think that this might make for interesting television.

I think Chris's mom and Ruben B's character are going to stage a revolt once they see what's going on at the extermination camp, try to rescue Nicolas, and then go from there... And while that 'doctor' talking to our would-be nurse about morphine knew about that, she seemed unable to help anyone else, I forget the details, but it indicated to me that she was any thing but an actual doctor. She was there to see who was needed and who was not. Who would be trouble and who wouldn't be, whether immediately or in the near future.

I should say four fronts in my earlier post, because I can imagine
some nations/groups like ISIS taking advantage of the situation and launching attacks on their nearest enemies... (at one point a nuclear missile from an unknown location might wipe out say, Chicago or New York. And of course there's such chaos in the command structure at this point that no-one was manning/womaning the anti-ICBM systems, so that even one from North Korea or Iran stood a chance of getting through. And maybe viruses from hackers like Anonymous already took out any automated defense systems, as well as power-failures and internal zombie attacks from within the ranks.)
