Featured review
This episode effectively explores themes of reconciliation, trust, and the complexity of old relationships under the pressure of survival in a post-apocalyptic world
Madison, Strand and Walker drive the tanker to Mexico and crawl through tunnels to the dam. They run into Daniel who is prevented from killing Strand after Madison tells him that Ofelia is alive at the ranch. Lola refuses to give them water but invites Madison to bring her family and work for her. Daniel thinks it better that Ofelia does not know he's alive knowing how different they both have become. Walker, displeased with the turnout, leaves on foot to force the ranchers out.
Daniel fears the dissatisfied people will rise against Lola, and sanctions Strand to act if their interests align. A water truck explodes, punching a hole in the gate, and a slogan-chanting mob soon appear. Lola is convinced to trade 10,000 gallons of water per week for weapons, with the first exchange at El Bazaar. Lola wants Ofelia to be there. Strand and Madison drive back, picking up Walker on the road.
"La Serpiente," the eleventh episode of the third season of "Fear the Walking Dead," presents a tense and strategically rich narrative as Madison, Strand, and Walker embark on a mission to secure a vital water supply from the dam controlled by Daniel Salazar. This episode effectively explores themes of reconciliation, trust, and the complexity of old relationships under the pressure of survival in a post-apocalyptic world.
The episode opens with a meticulously planned infiltration into the dam compound, highlighting the cleverness and resourcefulness of Strand. His knowledge of the dam's layout and personnel, including his complicated relationship with Daniel, plays a central role. This reunion is fraught with tension, as Daniel is wary of Strand's intentions, reflecting their past conflicts and the betrayal that severed their trust. The dynamic between Strand and Daniel adds a layer of personal drama and suspense to the negotiations, making every interaction charged with the possibility of betrayal or violence.
One of the episode's most compelling scenes is the sewer journey that Madison, Strand, and Walker undertake to reach the dam. This claustrophobic and dangerous passage serves as a metaphor for the murky and treacherous paths the characters must navigate in their interpersonal relationships as well as their physical journey. The encounter with a walker in the tight confines of the sewer pipes is not only a moment of horror but also one that forces the trio to cooperate closely, highlighting their dependence on each other despite their differences.
As negotiations with Lola, the dam's current leader, unfold, the episode delves into the politics of resource control in a post-apocalyptic society. Madison's pragmatic approach to diplomacy, where she leverages her understanding of both sides' needs, demonstrates her growing leadership capabilities and her role as a mediator. The agreement to exchange resources represents a critical turning point in the survival strategies of both the dam group and the Broke Jaw Ranch community.
