5 lessons learned from season 5 episode 1 of Fear the Walking Dead

5. Don’t call her sweetheart
Even when not in the midst of a physical battle, there are times where insult can be added to injury. It’s easy to tell when that happens in a war with weapons, but it can be more subtle when in a battle of words.
Logan got the best of the survivors by luring them all away from the jean factory where camp was set up, but it was more of a verbal jab following the acquisition of the building which really set Alicia off.
Much like one of the best scenes from the popular sci-fi comedy Spaceballs, the word “sweetheart” was used in a derogatory manner to imply that she wasn’t a real threat and they had complete control.
By now, we all know that Alicia isn’t one to mess with. She likely won’t take any of this sitting down. Those words already made her even angrier and focused on exacting revenge. If he only knew what she is capable of.
What we learned: Using demeaning nicknames only add fuel to a fire.
