Fear the Walking Dead (2015–…): Season 5, Episode 8 - Is Anybody Out There? - full transcript

Up against the clock, Morgan, Grace, and Alicia work to buy time as Dorie and Dwight race against the elements. Meanwhile, Sarah and Wendell get help from an unexpected source.

MORGAN: Stay as far away
from them as you can.

We've seen what happens
to people who are exposed,

and it ain't pretty.

Why'd you bring us here?

I wanted what was mine.

How long before the reactor melts down.

Maybe a day.

So, we'll finish the plane by then.

- You came back.
- Alicia...

Get them on the plane.
You'll die if you stay.

... she was pretty convincing.



We're going to get
everybody on that plane.

We're going to do what
we came here to do.

[STATIC]

It was a good idea...

but maybe we can't
make up for what we did.

Maybe we're the last ones left.

No.

We're not the last ones left.

I know we're not.

That isn't it.

That, uh...

It can't be.

Food's ready.

Take a break.

Oh, man. Oh, thank God.

Here.

[ALARM CONTINUES]

Thanks.

We're gonna need to
make a move pretty soon.

Thank you.

- For what?
- For getting the kids.

I should've done that a while ago.

You didn't even know they
existed till yesterday.

I didn't look.

You crashed a plane and
found them right away.

I've been doing this for
months now and never did.

It's clean.

[SIGHS]

Alicia, you're going to be okay.

You don't know that.

No, but you don't
know that you won't be.

And right now, with that siren,

what's coming is a hell
of a lot more dangerous

than whatever radiation

was in that blood that got on you.

[WALKERS GROWLING]

Shit.

We didn't lose them.

Any idea where else we could take them?

The truck stop is the
only thing for miles.

No, that's too close.

We can't risk them swarming the plane.

We're too close as it is.

♪♪

Alright, we're gonna
keep leadin' them away.

How long until it's ready?

More time than we've got, Morgan.

But we've got the plane radio running.

Just trying to raise Sarah and Wendell

to let them know we're coming.

You think they'll hear it?

Strand got Al's message about Skidmark.

I like our chances.

And John and Dwight...
anything from them?

June?

They're still out of range.

Okay, you keep working on the plane.

We'll just catch up to

[SIGHS]

A nuclear plant is melting down,

but I did just have a hot shower,

so there's that.

[ALARM CONTINUES]

Hey, we gotta keep movin'.

- I'm really startin' to hate that sound.
- GRACE: Me, too.

But once it stops,

that's when we're in real trouble.

There's gotta be somewhere
we can take them.

There is. Come on.

[WALKERS GROWLING]

♪♪

[ALARM BLARING IN DISTANCE]

You wanna go look for him, don't you?

More than anything.

But if we don't finish the plane,

we won't be able to take
off when it gets back.

Do you think he'll get back on his own?

I know he's trying.

But do you think he'll make it?

Hmm.

I've seen a lot of bad, Dylan.

I know you have, too.

But you need to know that
that is not all that there is.

It can't be.

There's gotta be good, too.

Otherwise...

it just doesn't add up.

And since we haven't seen a
whole lot of the good lately,

I think we've got some comin' our way.

Yeah, I think we do, too.

It might just do the trick.

You're asking me for my help.

We went over this already...

See that rig?

Belonged to your partner Clayton.

My brother and I, we stole it.

He was out there in the world,

just tryin' to help people with it,
