AMC is producing a (predictably pro-weapon) prequel show called Fear the Walking Dead. An excerpt is provided by Fresh Air:
KIM DICKENS: (As Madison) So why the knife? Hey – I could expel you just for crossing the threshold with that thing.
LINCOLN A. CASTELLANOS: (As Tobias) No. Please. We’re safer in numbers.
DICKENS: (As Madison) Safer from what? Tobias, please, don’t screw yourself like this. You’ve been working your ass off. You’re on track to go to college.
CASTELLANOS: (As Tobias) Yeah. No one’s going to college. No one’s doing anything they think they are.
DICKENS: (As Madison) What? What are you talking about?
CASTELLANOS: (As Tobias) Can I get my knife back, please?
DICKENS: (As Madison) No, you can’t get your knife back.
CASTELLANOS: (As Tobias) They say it’s not connected. They say that, but I don’t believe them. It is – from reports in five states. They don’t know if it’s a virus or a microbe. They don’t know, but it’s spreading.
Ah, fun stuff.
