They stop at a library to figure out where to go . Since the United States is covered with nuclear plants, they begin traveling to Mexico . While Todd drives, Phil annoys Erica by continually observing her difficulty with getting baby Dawn to nurse . Phil's Geiger counter sets off as they get closer to Tijuana, so they return to the Los Angeles area to instead use a boat to flee to Mexico, hoping to avoid Pat Brown along the way . In L.A., Carol's makeshift house catches fire, due to Phil placing candles in her house to calm her nerves, sending off a huge plume of black smoke . Pat sees the smoke and follows them to a marina . On the boat, Erica finally breastfeeds Dawn . Phil gives a celebratory speech long enough for Pat to arrive with a shotgun . Before pulling the trigger, he is shot by Pamela Brinton, who introduces herself to the group . </Td> </Tr> <Table> <Tr> <Th> No . overall </Th> <Th> No. in season </Th> <Th> Title </Th> <Th> Directed by </Th> <Th> Written by </Th> <Th> Original air date </Th> <Th> Prod . code </Th> <Th> U.S. viewers (millions) </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> 50 </Th> <Td> </Td> <Td> "M.U.B.A.R." </Td> <Td> John Solomon </Td> <Td> Rich Blomquist & John Solomon </Td> <Td> October 1, 2017 (2017 - 10 - 01) </Td> <Td> 4AYB01 </Td> <Td> 2.28 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td_colspan="8"> Pamela introduces herself to the group, explaining that she had met Pat in Malibu and the two had become intimate . She then introduces her new lover, Rear Admiral Roy Billups (Jack Black), but Pat, having briefly revived, shoots and murders Billups . Pamela then kills Pat outright . Once the group is out at sea, Phil decapitates Pat and sends his head and body out on two separate jet skis in opposite directions, but they crash into each other . Pamela gradually irritates the group by wasting their supplies, claiming the yacht's only bedroom for herself, and flirting with Phil . Melissa pilots the boat while drinking, and Gail botches dropping the anchor, so the boat drifts overnight and leaves them stranded in mid-ocean . After days without Gail telling anyone, they finally find a remote island . While sailing towards the island on a dinghy, Pamela, who had heard the women agree to abandon her on dry land, tricks Phil into untying the dinghy from the boat . She knocks him unconscious, sends the rest of the group away with useless supplies, and steals the yacht, intending to keep Phil for herself .

As he thinks of Carol in everything he sees, including a toenail clipper, Phil improvises cutting himself free with sharp toenails, then threatens to throw overboard or eat Pamela's dog Jeremy if she does not agree to peace . She gives in, but they soon realize they are no longer near land . On the island, the main group meets Glenn (Chris Elliott), a castaway who missed the apocalypse and knows nothing about the virus, so he hopes to return to the U.S. and reunite with friends and family . He shows Carol a signal fire he has saved to alert a plane or boat, but Carol wants to use it to find Phil, so she tells a saddened Glenn about the virus . That evening, they agree to light the signal fire, allowing Phil and Pamela to find and reunite with them the next morning . The group wants to abandon Pamela on the island to fend for herself, but since Glenn says he lasted as long he did alone because he didn't know about the virus and had hope, and since Pamela takes responsibility for her actions and tells them to desert her and take the blameless Jeremy with them, they agree to take her back to the mainland on the condition she rides in the dinghy attached to the yacht . </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> 52 </Th> <Td> </Td> <Td> "Skeleton Crew" </Td> <Td> John Solomon </Td> <Td> Kassia Miller </Td> <Td> October 15, 2017 (2017 - 10 - 15) </Td> <Td> 4AYB03 </Td> <Td> 1.96 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td_colspan="8"> Pamela is welcomed aboard the yacht after falling out of the dinghy, then begins a gradually intimate relationship with Glenn . Before Glenn can announce this, Jasper spots Zihuatanejo, Mexico . However, the group discovers that the whole town is the site of another triage operation from the apocalypse littered with body bags . Phil and Carol move into a hospital near a motel, but they notice Pamela crying in the nearby courtyard and learn that Glenn has been treating her poorly following their apparent breakup, which he caused after seeing signs of the virus and not explaining them to her . Meanwhile, Todd laments that Zihuatanejo isn't the paradise he had hoped it would be, but Melissa assures him that any new home is perfect as long as they are together . At dinner that night, Carol forgives Pamela for what she did to the group, and Pamela demands answers from Glenn . Glenn evades the truth until he finally admits he loves Pamela but wants to return to the United States in search of his children, and was treating her badly so she would not be devastated when he returned to the ruined world and faced the likelihood of not finding his family and contracting the deadly virus himself . He and Pamela pack up a car and leave the next day to begin the search . </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> 53 </Th> <Td> </Td> <Td> "Wisconsin" </Td> <Td> Jennifer Arnold </Td> <Td> Matt Marshall </Td> <Td> October 22, 2017 (2017 - 10 - 22) </Td> <Td> 4AYB04 </Td> <Td> 1.96 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td_colspan="8"> Todd and Melissa announce their plans to go on a honeymoon, while Erica and Gail decide to live on their own for a time . Carol worries about missing precious life moments with the scattered group, so she takes Phil to visit Gail but is upset because the rest of them were enjoying dinner together and lamely try to reassure her they weren't snubbing her or Phil . To show them why she feels they should stay together, Carol feigns going into labor, so the others follow her to the recently restored medical clinic . When Gail arrives, she thinks she sees Carol holding her baby, but it turns out to be Phil . Melissa, Erica, and Gail fake injuries and life - threatening situations to get back at Phil and Carol and think Todd is joining them, but they soon realize Todd is suffering a genuine heart attack from repeated consumption of energy drinks . They rush him to the medical clinic and set him up to a heart monitor to successfully revive him . Gail apologizes to Carol as she reflects on how the group is a disaster together but much worse apart, then agrees to live with everyone in a location much less horrible than the abandoned medical clinic . </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> 54 </Th> <Td> 5 </Td> <Td> "La Abuela" </Td> <Td> David Noel </Td> <Td> Kira Kalush </Td> <Td> November 5, 2017 (2017 - 11 - 05) </Td> <Td> 4AYB05 </Td> <Td> 1.94 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td_colspan="8"> The group settles into a mansion once occupied by the drug cartel leader "La Abuela" Gordillo (Alma Martinez).

As La Abuela holds the two men at gunpoint, Panchito shoots her, revealing himself as the traitor, and asks Hector where the bomb was placed . Hector does not say the exact answer and is arrested . In the present, Phil babyproofs the mansion at Carol's insistence, shows Jasper how to break the piñata (which only contains candy), and struggles with Victor's Rubik's Cube . Carol worries about the babyproofing and fears that their child will contract the virus, so Phil tells her that they can't plan for everything and have to prepare for the unknown . Meanwhile, Melissa extensively safety - proofs Todd after his heart attack, annoying Todd until he understands how much she cares for him, and they finally agree she should take a break from her protectiveness . Erica and Gail wonder why baby Dawn is constantly crying until Gail almost crashes their car, and they discover that Dawn is an adrenaline junkie .

He then tries to prove he is a feminist by changing words and phrases and performing an awkward song . Carol also annoys Gail about spending more time with Erica and Dawn than Bezequille and Mike, but Gail explains that she and Erica are like a married couple and do not need a marriage contract to validate their relationship . When Gail wakes up in the night to take care of Dawn, she notices Erica and proposes to her the next day, so they quickly marry . At the reception, Carol believes Gail is ditching her for Erica, who confides to Carol that she isn't trying to take Gail for herself and that nothing can come between Carol and Gail .

Uncertain about the source of his recklessness, Todd takes away Jasper's video games, but Jasper interrupts Melissa's attempt to solve the Rubik's Cube . Melissa finally tells the other adults that they are behaving like lunatics as they argue about Jasper, but when they all go to apologize to him, they find he has run away .
