In flashbacks, Huck begins her mission to Omaha. In the present, Hope, Iris, Felix and Huck are reunited and Hope and Huck attempt to convince Iris and Felix to return to the research facility with them. However, Iris and Felix reveal their belief that the CRM had destroyed Omaha and the Campus Colony and they refuse to go with them with Iris failing to convince Hope to stay at the Perimeter instead. While walking in the woods together, Felix almost kills Huck, but he holds off for the time being. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the vengeful Percy attempts to kill Huck, but he is foiled by Felix and Will who reveal Will's survival to Huck and that the CRM had tried to murder him; Huck promises to keep Will's survival a secret.
Unable to face Hope yet, Elton flees into the woods where he finds hidden dialysis equipment and bonds further with Asha who claims that it is for her and secretly sourced from the CRM; it's later revealed that Asha is actually covering for her mother who is suffering from kidney failure. Iris keeps Percy's survival a secret from Hope and Huck and later shares a kiss with him; Hope receives a gift from Mason and is convinced of the CRM's guilt by the revelation of what they did to Will. Silas continues working at the culling facility, but his attempts to leave in search of the Endlings results in hazing from his coworkers; Dennis convinces Silas to stay and Webb gets into CRM training. Kublek makes an address about the recent tragedy to Portland and the Civic Republic and her evasive answers about the survivors causes Huck to begin to doubt the CRM's version of events.
The fourth episode of the second season of TWD: World Beyond, titled "Family Is a Four Letter Word," was perhaps the best episode of the season so far. Filled with several tense moments, the situation begins to narrow down.
Starting from where the previous episode ended, almost all the characters find themselves at the Perimeter, which leads to good moments of conflict between them. We also see that despite plotting an escape plan for herself and her father, Hope (Alexa Mansour) begins to have a more friendly notion of the Civic Republic Military, even saying that she understands how her father feels working with the other scientists there.
Although understandable, the girl's plan to take Iris (Aliyah Royale) and Felix (Nico Tortorella) into the heart of the storm is extremely inconsistent. How does she think she could escape with several people when she can't even leave with her father? Anyway, at least Iris remains firm in her plan not to go. Felix has a moment to express everything he feels to Huck (Annet Mahendru), where he threatens the officer with an empty that conveniently passes by. Ironically, after all this, he rushes to save the traitor after seeing that Percy (Ted Sutherland) stole a gun and set out for revenge for his uncle. In this, Will (Jelani Alladin) ends up showing up alive to Huck.
All this sequence with Will and Felix has consequences for Huck, who becomes more and more suspicious of her mother and realizes that maybe she is not as aware of the CRM's actions as she thought she was. By the way, the character really understood that it was Silas (Hal Cumpston) who was in the training camp with Dennis (Max Osinski) and the other boys, and she informs this to Felix, Iris, and Hope.
Silas, in fact, is the most incompetent person in an escape plan in the entire The Walking Dead Universe. His two escape attempts here were thwarted. In the first attempt, he was caught by the other workers and ended up in a shed full of empties. In the end, it was all just a "prank" and it was just a chance for Silas to prove himself capable of protecting himself and his companions.
In the second attempt, he was caught by Dennis and ended up in a deep conversation about the need to create bonds and a family instead of protecting the family he already had before. Or something like that. What matters is that Silas told Dennis about Huck, whom he knows only as Jennifer, and this may result in something in the future.
Back at the Perimeter, Elton (Nicolas Cantu) goes into the forest to hide from Hope and ends up finding an improvised cabin with several medical supplies. Asha (Madelyn Kientz) then says that she is the one who is sick, undergoing dialysis with material provided by the CRM. Later, we see that actually the real sick person is Indira (Anna Khaja), her mother. Will this matter in the end? Probably not.
The episode ends with everyone returning to their respective communities and with Huck lightly questioning her mother. By the way, during the episode, flashbacks are shown of the preparation for the moment when Huck was sent to Omaha. Still about Huck, the revelation she gave about Silas's whereabouts, about the boy being in a slaughter and maintenance post, makes Will come up with a plan to get Hope and Leo (Joe Holt) out of the CRM.
All the conflicts made Family is a Four Letter Word one of the best episodes of the series so far, but only by World Beyond standards. The series is getting closer and closer to its end and doesn't show what it's about. Where is Jadis (Pollyanna McIntosh)? Anyway, there are six episodes left until the end of the series and it still hasn't introduced enough necessary elements to be necessary in The Walking Dead universe.
