With a ton of excitement throughout this week's episode of Fear The Walking Dead, social media seemed to be buzzing a little more than usual. Every moment in Pablo & Jessica seemed to give fans another talking point, and talk they did.

First, there were loads of comments on Madison and Strand's fight through the bar. It had been two weeks since we saw them get themselves into that mess, so fans enjoyed getting to see how they escaped.

Next, Nick decided the apocalypse was a great time to use his skills as a junkie. This scene created enormous uproar on Twitter, and everyone seems all in on Nick's new catchphrase: "I'm a junkie, trust me."

Aside from all of the individual moments, people couldn't stop blabbing about how awesome Alicia has become. Her character arc has brought her to a new level of confidence and wisdom, and fans all over have loved getting to watch the transition.

Twitter really exploded at the end of the episode when Luciana finally made her move on Nick. Fans of the show have been pining for Nick to get a girl since the show first began, and it looks like his time has finally come.

Fan reactions ranged from deep and emotional, to absolutely hilarious, and the episode feed as become increasingly entertaining. Without further ado, here are your best tweets from Pablo & Jessica.

I'm Sober, I Swear!

Watching Madison and Strand escape the bar was action-packed, to say the least, but we all seemed to forget what was going on before that.

Before the walkers broke into the hotel bar, swarming the duo, they had been drinking their weight in tequila. If you thought heavy drinking and fighting the undead didn't mix, apparently they do.

To make matters even worse, Madison and Strand covered themselves in walker-blood to elude their attackers. The tactic works wonders, but it can't be very pleasant.

As @njnic23 puts it, that is definitely one way to sober up. Who needs bread and Gatorade when you've go fresh insides to keep you company?

Not-So-Happy Hour

Speaking of insides, Strand himself shared an inside look at his outsides, covered with insides. Too much?

Just after Madison and Strand escaped the bar, Colman Domingo posted a selfie he took with co-star Kim Dickens, while they were still in their make-up.

Seeing someone else covered in guts is bad enough, but it's hard not to feel uneasy when that person is smiling right at you. The picture is funny, but it was cringe-worthy to say the least.

Either way, it was nice to see one of the stars get in on the action. It's also refreshing to see a cast that genuinely enjoys hanging out on set.

Movin' On Up

Like we talked about before, Alicia has grown so much over the last few episodes. This season has seen all of the younger people in the show come into their own, and it's an interesting dynamic.

Unlike with Chris and his story, fans seem to love what's happening with Alicia. She is playing with knives, setting up traps, and even forgiving her mother. While that hardly seems difficult, Alicia spent much of the first season verbally bashing Madison.

@JUaintnoLIE is definitely feeling the character growth from Alicia. Not only are we getting to see a young person succeed, but we're also seeing a powerful woman grow up before our eyes.

The meaning behind the tweet is sentimental, and that gif will never quit. Well done, Julie.

Giggity, Giggity

Fans of the series have wanted Nick to have a love interest since the first season. For the longest time, everyone thought Ofelia would be the one.

Some fans are actually a little upset that someone else beat Ofelia to the punch.

We were able to see Nick in a relationship through flashbacks, but his old girlfriend tried to eat him when he woke up. What kind of love is that?

Either way, dreams came true tonight as Nick and Luciana finally got together.

@dougclose seemed to see this coming when Alejandro handed Nick his very own place. Yes, indeed, Nick does have a bachelor pad. And that gif of Quagmire leaves no mistake as to what that means. Cue the Marin Gaye and bring in some Chardonnay.

Tweet Of The Week

This Tweet of The Week is brought to you by @cloneposter, and it was one of the funniest of the night.

When Madison hears Alicia call for help, she immediately wants to turn into mom-of-the-year. Unfortunately, we all know that hasn't always been true.

@cloneposter Tweet of The Week

Madison has always shown Nick more attention than Alicia, and all because he was the worse of the two children. He needed help, so Alicia's need for a mom fell by the wayside. Not exactly something to laugh about, but this tweet had us in tears anyway.

Just the thought of Madison calling back to her daughter, but saying Nick's name, is the kind of face-palming move that you can do nothing but laugh about.
