Fear The Walking Dead: Close Your Eyes round table discussion
By Sonya Iryna
Strand And Luciana And Charlie
Now that Alicia and Charlie are heading off on their own they may find Strand and Luciana, since it seems like Strand, Madison, Luciana, Nick, and Alicia had a plan before of how to find each other if they got separated. Will Strand and Luciana be able to accept Charlie into their group the way that Alicia has or will they turn away from both Alicia and Charlie now that Madison and Nick are gone?
Sonya says:
"This is a tough one. I’d like to think that they would choose to support Alicia and honor Madison but I am not at all sure they would. Strand has always been his own man and done his own thing. He respected Madison a lot but I’m not sure that accepting Charlie after what she did would align with his personal moral code. And Strand has always been willing to walk away from the group so I don’t think he’d have any problem going off on his own. Luciana I don’t think will accept living with Charlie after what Charlie did. Luciana is all alone now, because of Charlie. And I don’t think she’s going to be able to put that aside the way Alicia did."
Sarabeth says:
"Strand and John Dorie were off searching for Charlie when the storm hit, and Luciana saw the girl when she was at the mansion. I don’t think there will ever be total acceptance, but I do think that the group will come to see that she’s not an evil monster. Charlie is a child and she needs help."
Sara says:
"If Alicia was able to accept Charlie into the group, I’m sure Strand and Luciana may be able to as well. Of course, Luciana is still dealing with the fact that Charlie killed Nick, but I think she will also accept Charlie back into the group even if she doesn’t forgive her for what she did. I also believe that Charlie does not want to be the person who she was before with the Vultures since we saw in this episode how it mentally destroyed her. I think that Charlie needs to be around good people, especially adults who can help point her in the right direction which will be really good for her."
