I enjoyed last's night episode, as I enjoy the show a lot in general.
I liked that it set up tension that is going to create storylines for the season; tension between Strand and the families, tension between Travis and Chris that I don't think is going to disappear anytime soon, and some external tension with the kid that the teenage girl was talking to, not to mention this incoming boat.
Looking forward to this season and hoping it's a good one, especially after the way TWD fell on its face.
I think the kid is ON the incoming boat, and it's a boatload of pirates. He sounds innocent, lures people into talking to him while they pinpoint the location. The last thing he said was something like "it's okay, I've got you now"...
