The ending of Fear The Walking Dead 507 will have a big effect on the future for one character and fans had some big reactions to it.
The midseason finale of Fear The Walking Dead isn’t until next week but the show dropped a midseason finale style bomb when Alicia, in walker killing mode, got heavily splattered with irradiated blood from one of the radiation walkers. What will this mean for Alicia’s future? Will she die from radiation poisoning? Fans have a lot of questions after last night’s episode “Still Standing”.
Heading into the midseason finale it looks like one way or another the group is finally going to get out of the nuclear area. They don’t have a choice if they want to live because the second nuclear reactor is now failing and it’s imperative that everyone get out of the area quickly.
But, the group is still split up. Alicia hasn’t made it back to the truck stop yet. Neither have John and Dwight. Time is up and they have to either get the plane working or get out another way. The situation is now at crisis point and they need to make some kind of move.
“Still Standing” also delivered the kind of heartfelt moments that generally accompany a big change in direction for the story arc. Morgan tells Alicia that they have to start living for themselves as well as living to help others and Alicia agrees, maybe because she alone knows that her time is going to be limited and she needs to make the most of it. Here’s what fans thought of Fear The Walking Dead episode 507 “Still Standing”:
This is where Peter Pan would live, if Neverland was in the Zpocalypse. #FearTWD

Alicia and the gang: we’ve gotta help you#FearTWD
One of the things I like about this season of #FearTWD is that, except for the teases of the "helicopter people," there hasn't been a "big bad." The challenges of the walkers themselves plus the melting reactor have been the villains of the season, and that's cool.

Which reminds us all that is The Walking Dead universe where even our most badass heroes can be brought down by a walker bite, or irradiated walker blood. Hopefully this is not the end for Fear The Walking Dead OG Alicia Clark and hopefully we will find out more when the midseason finale of Fear The Walking Dead airs next week. In the meantime be sure to follow @SonyaIryna and @UndeadWalkingFS on Twitter for coverage of The Walking Dead and FearTWD from SDCC later on in the week.
