The Door (Fear the Walking Dead)

"The Door" is the eighth episode and mid-season premiere of the sixth season of the post-apocalyptic horror television series Fear the Walking Dead.

While investigating the perimeter, John finds Morgan (Lennie James) and Dakota (Zoe Colletti), who are hiding from Virginia's rangers.

Meanwhile, Dwight (Austin Amelio) brings Alicia (Alycia Debnam-Carey) and Charlie (Alexa Nisenson) to the new settlement.

"The Door" features the death of John Dorie (Garret Dillahunt) at the hands of Dakota (Zoe Colletti).

[4] In an interview with Dalton Ross of Entertainment Weekly, Garret Dillahunt revealed his departure from the character and explained: "I don't remember exactly when, but it's something we'd been talking about since season 5.

"[6] Emily Hannemann of TV Insider considered it "a fantastic, heartbreaking episode that harkens back to the days where characters died randomly and shockingly.

"[7] Paul Dailly of TV Fanatic gave it a score of 4 out of 5 stars, writing, "[the episode] featured high stakes and many payoffs, even if we did lose one of the best characters on the show."

[...] As for Colletti, this is a game-changing episode for the actor personally and professionally [...] In less than an hour, Dakota just became one of the more fascinating 'big bads' Fear TWD has seen in some time with so many possibilities storyline-wise.
