1) This episode gets its name from the flashback to Morgan at the dungarees factory, calling out over the radio “Is there anybody out there?”.

2) This episode’s title sequence features the barbed-wire fence (Complete with radiation signs) in front of the nuclear plant, as the red lights flash and meltdown klaxon blares.

3) With the revelation that the ugly walker (Which Alicia kept circling around and seeing in the previous episode) was, in fact, radioactive, that leaves me wondering: Were Annie and/or Max contaminated while trying to rig him up for the walker fence?

4) After giving Alicia a de-con shower, Grace thanks her for getting the Cackleberry Kids out of dodge, saying she’d been “doing this” — Hunting for the radioactive walkers — “for months”, revealing some timetable as to when the first meltdown occurred.

5) According to the sign on the office, the runway Sarah and Wendell found for the plane was for “Jiro’s Skyjump Dojo”. I wonder if Jiro survived…?

6) Alicia telling Morgan she couldn’t kill any more of the infected is the first time we’ve seen anyone in Fear The Walking Dead show any such reluctance since Nick’s similar crisis of conscience back in Season Two.
