A key reveal is that AMC provided them screeners for Dark Winds Season 3, including early episodes, and Jenna Elfman joins the cast.

The episode shifts to convention talk, confirming press passes for Camp in Peachtree City, Georgia, in May. They share anecdotes from charity calls, like one with Cooper Andrews and Fear the Walking Dead producers that lasted 90 minutes.
