TWD World Beyond season 1 episode 5 preview: Madman Across the Lake

Here’s your preview and synopsis of TWD: World Beyond 105, “Madman Across the Lake”

The journey to rescue Dr. Leo Bennett from the grip of the CRM continues in this week’s episode of The Walking Dead: World Beyond. In “Madman Across the Lake” the Endlings find themselves facing several challenges but it’s overcoming their past that is the biggest challenge of all.

Given that ten years have passed since the world fell apart, there aren’t many options left when it comes to river transportation and the group must find a way to cross the Mississippi River in order to continue their journey. Thus far the group has been able to face every challenge head-on, but this force of nature, coupled with other threats, make the journey all the more dangerous.

“Madman Across the Lake” is also an episode for the exploration of different characters and their personal stories. Based on the trailer you can see that Elton’s story is about to come out, and we can only wonder how long it will be until the truth about his past and his connection to Hope and Iris is revealed.

Here’s the trailer for this week’s all new episode:
