Fear The Walking Dead, The Althea Tapes: Things To Note
By Liam O'Leary
1) Before the outbreak, Jody was a trauma surgeon.
2) Not surprisingly, many of Jody’s colleagues died during the early part of the outbreak, likely bitten by infected patients.
3) Jody’s husband, Ryan, was an engineer who “worked for the city”. Which city, she doesn’t say.
4) Ryan died when accidentally shot by another member of their group whilst trying to deal with a group of walkers that encroached upon their camp. Incidentally, the way Jody described the camp makes it sound reminiscent of the Atlanta camp from Season One of The Walking Dead.
5) Jody lost her had when Ryan turned (While Jody was attempting to save him) and bit her. She’s the first person with a lost limb in Fear.
6) Jody has no name for the infected, and though, she does acknowledge their herding behavior she doesn’t refer to them as a “herd”.
