"Fear the Walking Dead" Season 5 "Leave What You Don't": Logan's Crew Isn't Getting Around THIS Roadblock [EXCLUSIVE PREVIEW]

If you're a fan of the Walking Dead universe, things are pretty sweet right now – especially from the perspective of AMC's Fear the Walking Dead. Following up on an epic appearance at this year's Comic-Con International: San Diego (SDCC), we learned that the series been picked up for a sixth season – and as we've already seen, the second-half brings the arrival of new survivors – and new foes. Then there are those teases about this season being a game-changer. Hmmm…

Last episode definitely had some highs and lows for our folks: we met Peter Jacobson's Rabbi Jacob Kessner, June (Jenna Elfman) realized that she's been pushing everyone (including herself) way too hard, Dorie (Garret Dillahunt) continue shifting into "zombie movie action hero" mode, Dwight (Austin Amelio) opened up about his time post-TWD and pre-FTWD, and we learn Sarah's (Mo Collins) Jewish and her last name is "Rabinowitz."

On the not-so-good side, Charlie (Alexa Nisenson) put the group in a righteous amount of danger (we'll reserve judgment on if that was a good move or not), while Althea's (Maggie Grace) tapes proved useful – for the wrong group. Logan (Matt Frewer) and his crew end the episode where they've wanted to be all along: the location of the oil fields.

Which leads us to the following exclusive preview for this weekend's episode "Leave What You Don't" that finds Rollie (Cory Hart) and two other members of Logan's crew running into a roadblock – but not just any kind of "roadblock":

Fear the Walking Dead season 5, episode 13 "Leave What You Don't": Logan's motives are revealed; Sarah, Dwight, and Luciana negotiate for the sake of the mission; Strand and Alicia race to the aid of a new survivor in a familiar place; a dangerous threat emerges. Directed by Daisy von Scherler Mayer, and written by Ashley Cardiff and Nick Bernadone.

Heading into season 5 of Fear the Walking Dead, the group's mission is clear: locate survivors and help make what's left of the world a slightly better place. With dogged determination, Morgan Jones leads the group with a philosophy rooted in benevolence, community and hope. Each character believes that helping others will allow them to make up for the wrongs of their pasts.

In the second half of Season 5, after successfully proving their way can work, our heroes gain momentum, rescuing survivors, and spreading the message of hope along the way — until foes both familiar and unexpected arise, forcing the group to question whether their brand of altruism can really make a difference in a world filled with death and decay.

Newcomer Colby Hollman is on board as Wes, a survivor who joins the group after meeting Alicia and Strand – and has more of connection to Alicia than either of them realized. Peter Jacobson (House, The Americans) is also on board as Rabbi Jacob Kessner.
