Showrunner Matt Negrete’s promise of “shocking endings” is already coming true.

Huck remembers first firing on the empties and using her thermal vision goggles to decipher friend from foe.
No reason is given, but some theorize it is to help contain the spread of the pandemic.
Huck urges her to keep that information to herself.
Telling Elton and Iris would only help her.
Maintaining the secret allows them to live their lives while she bears the burden for them.
It became a thing to begin with because of Percy.
The kids were off drinking, taking a break from reality for a moment.
It’s their first solid lead on where her dad might be.
So, everyone is letting off some steam before they raid the fuel station the next day.
She tries to lie, but he senses there’s a truth she’s hiding.
Hope storms off and that’s when she runs into Huck and spills the beans.
Hope, however, is grabbed by a man by the name of Walter.
Huck tries to reason with Walter, who’s holding a gun to Hope’s head.
She promises that she can save him by amputating his leg.
She claims she’s seen it happen.
She’s just trying to tire him out.
Huck is still telling Walter that she’ll help him when she puts a bullet in his head.
Everything seems at ease again.
Iris mentioned earlier how if she could do anything, she would want to see the Louvre.
Iris falls asleep flipping through Percy’s art books.
When she wakes, he’s still not there.
A trail of blood leads out a broken window, and Iris thinks that’s where Percy fled.
The others arrive and notice there’s someone lying on the floor behind one of the stalls.
Felix throws it open and finds a quivering Silas staring into empty space.
Silas has been forced to watch Iris flirt with Percy and bore his sadness in silence.
It’s known that he tends to fall into these violent fugue states, but only when prompted.
