When Beta's zombie mask was ripped in "Walk With Us," exposing part of his face, a Whisperer recognized him and mentioned his voice sounding familiar. Apparently, the proprietor or a resident had been a big fan because inside, Beta discovers records and souvenir posters from his time as the country recording artist Half Moon.īefore the zombie apocalypse, Half Moon was quite well-known (was he contemporaries with Jackson Maine?) since a concert poster proclaims, "The legend himself for one night only." His music was played throughout the country since, in Season 5 of Fear the Walking Dead, his album could be spotted when Daniel dropped the vinyl records he had acquired in Texas. In fact, he's still taking orders from Alpha in "Look at the Flowers." With a little GPS courtesy of Alpha's reanimated head, Beta finds himself at the Grand Hotel. As fans of the franchise predicted, Beta was a famous singer before the apocalypse.īeta has no intention of assuming the Alpha role, as his killing of a Whisperer who even suggested it indicates. With his future in question, Alpha's number two goes on a trip down memory lane with The Walking Dead revealing who Beta was before the zombie apocalypse. What's a Beta without his Alpha? That's the question Ryan Hurst's Beta on The Walking Dead is faced with now that Alpha (Samantha Morton) is dead. Spoilers ahead for The Walking Dead Season 10.
