Did "Fear The Walking Dead" just kill off that character? Nick Clarke, a character who has been around since the start of the series was killed off in "Good Out Here." He was a character who had been in every episode since the pilot episode, or at least most of them.
Nick Clarke was the character that basically started the whole journey for the characters of this show, if not for him, they would all be dead. Nick was the one that made the characters leave. It is just crazy to think he is dead on the show. He was the Rick Grimes to this show basically.
His death scene was so perfectly written though. Throughout Season 4 so far, there has been this girl named Charlie. She's about 10 and the group took her in after her family was murdered by an unknown group. Nick and Madison befriend her and turns out, she's a part of the group known as "The Vultures." This season has been told in a very odd fashion, with segments being before the stadium fell, and after with the group on the run. At least so it seems. Anyways, Nick ends up killing Ennis, the leader of the group's brother. Charlie was with him but Nick did not know and she shoots him, which kills him. I found this scene to be really well written since this was Nick's good friend and she ended up killing him.
Behind the scenes, however, Frank Dillane, who plays Nick had wanted to leave the show since mid-season 3. He wanted to pursue other projects, which is understandable since this show has really pushed him into the spotlight. I can't wait to see what he does next! He is a superb actor.
The show will indeed be different without Nick Clarke. This season has been phenomenal so far so I am not worried about the show without him. I will miss him though!
