"Fear the Walking Dead" spoilers show the AMC series is pulling no punches for season 3 Episode 3 titled “TEOTWAWKI." That acronym becomes clear as the June 11 episode opens with an infomercial starring none other than Jeremiah Otto (Dayton Callie), survivalist and owner of Broke Jaw Ranch where the diminishing Clark family finds themselves on this new "FTWD."
The End of the World as We Know It
That's not just the catchy title of a great song by R.E.M., it's also the long form of the acronym that titles tonight's Season 3 Episode 3 of "Fear the Walking Dead." Jeremiah's infomercial shows us that the Otto patriarch was prepared for something, he just didn't know what it would be that through the world into disarray.

The infomercial promotes Jeremiah's video series "How to Survive TEOTWAWKI" (the end of the world as we know it). Jeremiah was selling a "proprietary system" to teach people how to stockpile supplies and goods for barter, how to dig a well, raise livestock and defend your sovereignty when the four horsemen ride.
The infomercial even comes with that great "but wait, there's more" moment. When you buy his video tapes, Jeremiah offered customers a free starter bucket of supplies. He cautioned viewers, “Don’t be a Pollyanna” and advised them to "plan for a better future." Those are ominous "Fear the Walking Dead" spoilers!
Lock Jaw Ranch on the Edge
As we saw on "Fear the Walking Dead" last week, Travis Manawa (Cliff Curtis) jumped to a faster death after he was shot in the neck while on the helicopter so the family wouldn't see him turn and have to put him down. Back on terra firma, the people at the ranch demand to know what the Ottos are doing about vengeance on the next "FTWD."
Madison Clark (Kim Dickens) struggles with grief offer Travis’s death and the ugly scene at the tent doesn't help.
Madison seems to be shutting down and getting colder now that she’s lost Travis. She sits by Alicia Clark (Alycia Debnam-Carey) as they listen to the disgruntled sentiment grow on Season 3 Episode 3 spoilers for "Fear the Walking Dead."
