He has taken preemptive antibiotics, but he isn’t going to be able to move for a while, giving him time to flash back to dinner with Leopold, Will, and the girls, during which he learns that Will has joined Leo’s security detail, ostensibly so that Felix doesn’t have to worry about him. She warns her away from a room that supposedly contains the deceased former occupants, piquing Iris’s curiosity and highlighting a slight issue with the characterization here, which is that Iris seems to have figured out Huck’s weird behaviour right in time with the audience.Īs Felix begins to flashback to more of his relationship with Will, including a lingering saltiness about Leopold asking him to stay behind and look after the girls, the condition of his leg worsens rapidly. Remember, the show is still treating the identity of “the asset” as a bit of a twist, so we’re supposed to assume here in The Walking Dead: World Beyond season 1, episode 9 that Hope is working on isolating her target. With Felix injured, the group takes shelter in a deserted house and root about, with Huck searching the upstairs with Iris while buttering her up about how smart and capable she is. This is in service of a fairly predictable twist later, and it isn’t the only one.
In the process, Felix gets a bad injury - a slice to his ankle - but we cut away from the action so quickly that we don’t see how it occurred. Convenient!Īnyway, the main Scooby gang find themselves surrounded by zombies on the road, all of whom are strung together with barbed wire, making the fight a little more complicated. Now seems late in the game to be introducing a potentially significant character such as this, but it seems like Season 2 has plans for this guy.Įlsewhere in “The Deepest Cut”, Elton, clearly struggling with both Hope’s revelation about his mother and his seeming inability to find Silas, staggers around lugging all his stuff until he quite by chance runs into a badly injured and thus far unconscious Percy.
He’s initially interviewing her for campus security while her military background makes her subject to the psychological evaluations of one Will Campbell, whom Felix quickly falls in love with. The flashbacks this time around weave in some of Huck’s backstory with Felix’s.
