In the second episode, "Los Muertes," written by Alan Page and directed by Deborah Chow, after the fall of the compound, Madison, Strand, and others forge a tenuous path forward.

Then, viewers can catch a new episode of the live after-show "Talking Dead," hosted by Chris Hardwick, featuring "Fear The Walking Dead" stars Colman Domingo and Kim Dickens and guest Ethan Embry at 10:01 p.m. ET/PT.

As we embark on the second half of the second season of "Fear the Walking Dead," the Clark/Manawa, Salazar and Strand families fracture. The events that took place at the Abigail compound have set all of our heroes adrift. Now they must forge their own paths to survive. Alicia struggles with Madison's refusal to let Nick go, while Travis tries to protect Chris from the apocalyptic darkness that threatens to consume him. Strand is lost in grief, and the power of Daniel's dark past leaves Ofelia disillusioned about their survival and ability to rebuild new lives.

"Fear the Walking Dead" is executive produced by showrunner Dave Erickson, Robert Kirkman, Gale Anne Hurd, Greg Nicotero and David Alpert and stars Kim Dickens as Madison, Cliff Curtis as Travis, Frank Dillane as Nick, Alycia Debnam-Carey as Alicia, , Mercedes Mason as Ofelia, Lorenzo James Henrie as Chris, Colman Domingo as Strand and Danay Garcia as Luciana.
