One of the most striking aspects of this episode is its exploration of the breakdown of societal norms and highlights themes of racism, colonialism
Ranchers begin asking questions about the helicopter attack and express hostility towards Madison's family. Luciana believes they need to leave the ranch as she feels it's not safe. Nick and Troy break past their contempt as they find more in common with each other and Alicia gets to know the younger crowd while smoking pot in a "Bible study." A team prepares to investigate the helicopter incident and Madison volunteers to accompany them.
Elsewhere, Strand arrives at the Gonzalez Dam, where he is reunited with old friend Dante Esquivel, offering him a partnership in controlling the dam's dwindling water supplies, but Dante instead has Strand imprisoned as he knows what kind of person Strand is, a thief. While in his cell, Strand is reunited with Daniel.
One of the most striking aspects of this episode is its exploration of the breakdown of societal norms and the rise of new power structures in the apocalypse.
