8) Ofelia Infects the Ranch
Ofelia Salazar, once a reliable friend to the Clarks, has a change of heart after being left in the desert by ranch owner Jeremiah Otto. She sides with Walker’s Native American tribe. A natural decision in many ways considering they nursed her back to health after discovering her. The casualty in the cross-fire? Nick Clark, who once seemed to be developing a romantic interest with Ofelia before Luciana came into the picture. It was all in the coffee, as the ranch’s militia (who Nick had just joined) finds themselves riddled with a major time life-threatening disease.
As Nick collapses, Madison calls out to Ofelia for help who abandons the scene in a hurry. Not a response to be heard. Eventually, Madison takes control of the situation and has Ofelia take her back to Walker. When Ofelia hears what Nick is actually infected with (Anthrax), she feels grave disappointment and regret.
She thought the militia would simply turn ill for a few days not suffer a vicious death. Ofelia later tells Walker he’s essentially turned her into a murderer. Walker tells Madison, her son Nick is young and resilient and will likely survive. She is spared any retaliation from Walker’s tribe for having the guts to make the meeting happen in the first place. Somehow, Nick makes it through…
