FearTheWalkingDead showrunner Andrew Chambliss explains the PADRE origin story flashback.
The third episode of Fear the Walking Dead Season 8, titled "Odessa," reveals the real history of PADRE. Madison Clark discovers that Ben , also known as Crane, has been running the facility all along, together with Sam . The episode was both shocking and heartbreaking, especially for Dickens' character, given what she had been through inside PADRE for the past seven years.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT For every villain story arc comes a tragic backstory, and the PADRE's history—although evil—came from a terrible past. The third episode delves into Sam and Ben's past, including dealing with the loss of a father who sacrificed his life in order to save both of them.
"We've spent all this time building PADRE as being anti-family [and] trying to use the apocalypse to hit a reset switch so that they could wipe away the things that we've seen on seasons of The Walking Dead or seasons of Fear, where all these personal connections always end up having groups break up, and then eliminate those.
"We see that in the flashback story where we see these two teenagers who have a father who's going to help rebuild society for them. He's going to do it with his children as this nuclear family. What we hope to do is set up this expectation that Ben ended up dying, and that drove his father to want to cut himself off from family, and Shrike was helping him do that in memory of her brother and his son.
Now that Fear the Walking Dead will be meeting its inevitable conclusion, The Walking Dead saga continues with the upcoming release of The Walking Dead: Dead City, which will debut on June 18, along with the announcements of The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon and The Walking Dead: Summit.
