Ah. Um...

Thank you. Justina --

Thank God you were here. Thank you very much.

My friend needs a doctor. Is there a doctor around here?

We don't come from this area.

May-- Maybe you could just give us some food.

Yes, yes. Something for my head.

Yeah. Let me see.

What about a village? Is there a village nearby?

No. Yes. Um...

When Carol and I wash ashore and she's injured,

we run into a young couple,

and the young couple bring us to this town.

Melissa McBride: This location we are in is northeast of Madrid,

in a region called Segovia.

And within that region is Sepúlveda.

Sepúlveda was one of the first places that we came to,

and we fell in love with this town.

It has a lot of heart. It has a lot of soul.

It has sort of an earthy warmth to it,

and you really feel like you're in Spain.

Daniel Percival: Part of the reason we chose it

is because this town already exists as a community.

A lot of our extras are from the community.

And the great thing is we're able to use that

and help make our world as believable as possible.

Melissa McBride: It's such a beautiful location and just perfect for the scenes.

[Down-tempo music plays]

[Wind blowing, dog barking in distance]

David Zabel: One of the things that we really were excited about

was the idea of investigating

how our show could echo spaghetti Westerns.

I, from the very beginning, was looking at

the Man With No Name movies,

the Clint Eastwood movies that he did with Sergio Leone.

Jason Richman: That was one of the things

that attracted us to Spain, to give it a really different feel

than when we were in France.

Daryl and Carol are,

for all intents and purposes, people with no name.

They come from a faraway place.

Nobody knows anything about them.

They don't know anything about the town they're walking into.

And that sort of is a classic makeup of a Sergio Leone movie.

[Guns cocking]

Welcome to Solaz del Mar.

[In Spanish]

[In Spanish]

Man, I don't get it. What's so bad about this place?

They won't let us be together.

David Zabel: We really wanted to explore this season

love in the apocalypse.

The idea was to have a story

that was provoked by some kind of pure love

that's trying to exist in a very dark world.

That's what Roberto and Justina represent to Carol

when she sees them at the top of Episode 2.

Daniel Percival: Forbidden love is a theme

that runs through this story line,

not just Roberto and Justina,

where the two families are trying to keep them apart,

for reasons we will discover later in the show.

And there's a love story between Paz and Elena,

which is also forbidden love.

[In Spanish]

Elena has to hide her love for Paz

from her husband, Guillermo.

Alexandra Masangkay: Having the chance to develop

this relationship between Paz and Elena was beautiful.

And also, working with Dan about it,

he was really sensitive with the relationship of both characters.

Big action scenes, big zombie scenes are great fun to shoot,

but what I really love is shooting two people

in a room together, too afraid to say they love each other.

I just remember looking at him

and getting so emotional about it.

Once a year, they visit the northern villages,

bringing gifts, offering protection.

Norman Reedus: In our story, Carol and I get sort of wrapped up

in this sort of underlying drama of what unfolds here

to keep this place alive.

"La Ofrenda" means "the offering,"

and it refers to this event

where the last vestiges of Spanish royalty come to the town

and offer gifts in exchange for a girl.

Melissa McBride: These traditions have been around for a long time,

but may also be exacerbated by the situation

that they're in now, that resources are low

and they have to do what they have to do in order to survive.

Thank you. Carol: Your town is beautiful.

But some of your traditions are a bit surprising.

This is their system, which is sort of corrupt in our eyes.

And it becomes clear that that's the thing

that Roberto and Justina are running from

when Daryl and Carol force them to come back to the village.

Obviously they're a couple in love,

and the threat is that Justina may be chosen.

Man: Three. Two. One.

Norman Reedus: Today we're filming a pig race.

It's a raffle which sort of makes decisions

amongst the town.

What an interesting way to have a lottery --

whichever little piglet comes in first.

Alexandra Masangkay: These are our pigs. They are all females.

And I've been with them like for two days now.

Beautiful. [Laughs]

You can be taking the pigs -- We've made friends.

Yeah. Exactly. 'Cause I know you like that.

So you can be getting the pigs over. Okay. Great.

Daniel Percival: For weeks and weeks now,

we've been training piglets to race.

[In Spanish]

Pigs are not normally a trainable animal.

They have bags of individuality

and bags of personality, and they will do what they do.

But they havebeen training, they've been doing very well,

and I'm very proud of them.
