Three episodes into the final six-episode run of AMC's Fear the Walking Dead, it's become crystal clear that my thoughts on this end-run are going to be very 'Jekyll/Hyde.
' Because with all of the problems that I had with last week's episode, I wasn't expecting S08E09: 'Sanctuary' to swing my review pendulum as far to the other side as it did. Dwight finds himself in some unfortunately all-too-familiar stomping grounds, dragging him back to his days with Negan and the Saviors at the Sanctuary. Unfortunately, Sherry , June , and Dove pick exactly the wrong time to go looking for Dwight to convince him to help them save PADRE.
Aside from a bit of heavy-handed dialogue near the end – and the finch appearing was 10 pounds of symbolism in a 5-pound scene – Amelio & Evangelista were on their A-game when it came to presenting the struggles they were still having rectifying the past with the here-and-now. Also, serious bonus points for the effective use of flashback footage to demonstrate the PTSD that Dwight & Sherry were still dealing with – just enough to get the point across without it becoming a distraction.
