In Fear The Walking Dead’s fifth episode of season 6, Dwight is reunited with Sherry and her group. There’s a lot of pointless drama that doesn’t really offer much. Morgan, Al, a dog, and some of the office people are in this as well. My name is Kent, and for Fear The Walking Dead, I only ask 5 questions and some final thoughts to make this blog a little more compact for your reading pleasure.\u00a0 Any comments in\u00a0BOLD<\/strong> are written by me.\u00a0 I hope you enjoy it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1.  Did Sherry disappoint you?<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Bob:\u00a0 Ahhh, this is hard to say especially with the time jumps.\u00a0 She is irritating and frustrating. (Two fine words to describe a true lady.)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Raylene:\u00a0 I was hoping she wouldn’t fall into the traditional hated female character of a show for me. For one, you couldn’t just be happy you found your man again? Be honest with him about what you are involved in now. Realistically, she has become what she said she hated in Dwight. (Dwight and Sherry really swapped roles in some ways, which made for an interesting dynamic for maybe a minute.)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kent:  I\u2019m not going to mince words.  The bitch is shady and I don\u2019t trust her or her decisions.  She\u2019s quite pretty, but she is borderline awful.  I think that is a rule of the TWD universe.  The more attractive you are, the worse your decisions are.  I could use any number of examples, but I will go with the first and easiest.  Why the hell didn\u2019t she tell Dwight about this Purge group?  It\u2019s as if she didn\u2019t trust Dwight.  And then it was double shady to not let him know that they would be arriving at some point.  She almost killed that dude!  All because she was shady.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2.  Should Sherry have gone through with the plan and shot up the group that did arrive?<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Bob:\u00a0 Of course, and then why be mad that you didn\u2019t?\u00a0 It\u2019s not Dwight\u2019s fault.\u00a0 I don\u2019t think she was going to be able to do it. (All a bunch of big talk and bravado.)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Raylene:\u00a0 If your main objective was to get Ginny and she wasn’t there then nope don’t follow through with it. Their position wasn’t comprised so it was a smart move not to strike. (Right, never give away info that you don’t need to. In a way, I’m surprised it didn’t go worse.)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kent:  No.  I can\u2019t think of any good reason.  Ginny wasn\u2019t going to show up on the word of Dwight.  How dumb do they think she is?  And who cares if she shoots up 10-20 red shirt storm troopers?  They are simply cannon fodder.  It accomplishes very little and Ginny would retaliate and hurt Dwight\u2019s group, no doubt.  There was no gain, no net positives.  Terrible!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3.  In the moment, Dwight ended up siding with Sherry instead of Morgan and Al.  If you were in Dwight\u2019s situation, which side would you have chosen if we\u2019re saying that you have to choose one side or the other?<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Bob:\u00a0 It\u2019s got to be Morgan, even without Al.\u00a0 Morgan was really important in changing Dwight.\u00a0 Sherry is from the not too distant past of Dwight being evil. (In the ZA, recency bias has to play a role because people change so fast under dire circumstances.)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Raylene:\u00a0 I probably would’ve made the same choices as Dwight and then ultimately later realized I was wrong. (FAIL!)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kent:  I liked that Dwight threw it in Morgan\u2019s face saying that he\u2019d probably do the same thing if Grace was involved.  That shows a great weakness on everybody\u2019s part.  I don\u2019t like knowing that just because their significant other is on the verge of making an illogical decision, they\u2019re cool with backing them.  You can back your significant other on many things, but something with horrible life-altering decisions\u2026.hell no!  I\u2019m choosing the logical side, in this case, Morgan\u2019s, even if I don\u2019t fully have faith in him after last season.  Patience is important here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4.  Why did Dwight let the dog out at the end of the episode?<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Bob:\u00a0 I want to think it is a subtlety against the group, like using fingers dirtied by cheese curls and Doritos and using someone\u2019s gaming controller.\u00a0 I think Dwight maybe let go of his violent self here. (Russell is doing well and he sends his well wishes. The chocolate on my Wii-mote will never fully come off. Now I’m sad.)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Raylene:\u00a0 I said that perhaps the dog reminded him of the way they tortured people by locking them in the cell at Sanctuary. He wanted to set his guilty conscience free as well. (I like this idea because some of the stuff that we witnessed with Daryl was difficult. On the plus side, he had good music. I bet that dog knows nothing about Easy Street.)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
