Featured review
"The Raft" is a solid episode that adds depth to the characters of Sarah and Dwight while delivering a tense and engaging storyline
Dwight and Sherry rescue a woman named Maya from walkers and Dwight sends her to the Tower despite the escalating war with Strand; Sherry expresses fears that Dwight will take Strand's deal to protect her and become the man he used to be while serving Negan. Having escaped with Mo, Morgan lures Strand's walker moat away, leaving the Tower vulnerable until nightfall. Morgan is joined by Alicia, who admits to being afraid that she won't be able to kill Strand when the time comes. Leading the herd to the crater, the two find it to be almost empty, as someone lowered a ramp into it so the radioactive walkers could escape.
Dwight and Sherry are chased by Wes and several of Strand's Rangers in search of Mo. The two escape to the bunker, using it to contain the herd while they escape through the drainage pipes. Trapped by a ceiling collapse, Sherry reveals she is pregnant before using Alicia's recovered melee weapon to dig their way out, reuniting them with Morgan and Alicia. With the Pennsylvania having to be abandoned due to a radiation leak, Alicia prepares to lead everyone in an attack against the Tower, while Morgan departs with Mo on the sub's emergency life raft to find a safer home for her.
In the thirteenth episode of Fear the Walking Dead's seventh season, titled "The Raft," the narrative shifts focus to a smaller, more intimate storyline centered around Sarah and Dwight. The episode opens with Sarah and Dwight encountering a group of survivors who have been living on a raft, isolated from the dangers of the mainland. However, tensions arise when the leader of the group, Marcus, reveals his true intentions and threatens Sarah and Dwight's safety.
One of the standout scenes in the episode is when Sarah and Dwight confront Marcus, leading to a tense standoff that tests their resolve and highlights the complexities of trust in a post-apocalyptic world. This scene is not only gripping but also serves as a catalyst for Sarah and Dwight's character development, as they are forced to confront their own beliefs and motivations.
Thematically, "The Raft" explores the concept of community and the lengths people will go to protect their own. The episode also touches on themes of redemption and forgiveness, as Sarah and Dwight grapple with their past actions and strive to find a sense of purpose in a world that has been torn apart by the undead.
Overall, "The Raft" is a solid episode that adds depth to the characters of Sarah and Dwight while delivering a tense and engaging storyline. While it may not have the scale or scope of some of the series' larger episodes, it succeeds in delivering a compelling narrative that keeps viewers on the edge of their seats. With strong performances from the cast and a well-paced storyline, "The Raft" is a standout episode in Fear the Walking Dead's seventh season.
