It's so strange to start the episode with the Viennese Waltz. You just wouldn't expect to hear it. Not in this world. And certainly not without a some really weird scene with Madison and Strand incapacitating the zombies around the bar table. But then again, FTWD isn't its parent show and it is making it's own way in the world.
Just like Chris and Travis are doing on the road to nowhere. They have no real aim. No plan on what to do, as they've abandoned the rules and decided to follow their own path, in the world that will not frown upon their activities as psycho-killers.
There is no cops. No detectives. No Federal Agencies. No psychologists to hunt them down and put them behind the locks. In Kirkman's world they should be on the tip of the food pyramid. Standing higher above the zombies.
But yet, they are standing on the human scale, below the undead. Still, Chris made me smile on showing how he is, when it comes to survival in this world. He has no moral qualms on stealing from the people, or leaving them in a dire-situation with a hole in their chest. In a way, he is stronger then most people - who are just about starting to learn on how to live among the dead. And the living.
His sister Alice has much bigger problems on adapting in the situation. She has made more wrong choices than his brother, even though she's no monster, and therefore, being automatically in a weaker position than Chris.
But above them stands Travis. Man, who has acquired academic and practical survival knowledge through his activities. In a way, the methods he teaches to his son draws from Jack London's ideas - stuff he were teaching to the kids back in the Los Angels.
I feel he should have stayed with his wife to keep their group in control.
He would have found out a good location to camp out and learned on how to really survive in this world, while in the moment, the whole family is spread around the bloody Mexico. With bloody being the active word. Just like the darkness that has swamped US it has clouded its southern neighbour.
In Mexico, the tales of death are somewhat darker then what they've been shown to be at other side of the border, when the apocalypse began. What did you think about it?
