Spoilers for Fear the Walking Dead's midseason 3 finale follow. The two-hour episode aired Sunday night on AMC.
Following Ofelia's shocking return on Fear the Walking Dead, the character found herself at the mercy of Madison Clark. Having poisoned the army of Broke Jaw Ranch with anthrax, Ofelia was ready to flee the community and head back to Walker's Black Hat Motel camp but made herself the number one enemy within the fences.
Trying to escape, Ofelia was caught by Madison in a pick-up truck and a violent fight ensued between the infuriated mother and the woman who poisoned her son.
"It was really, really fun," Madison Clark actress Kim Dickens joked on Talking Dead. "It might be my favorite scene!"
"It was great on the page, right?" Dickens went on. "It was exciting to think we had to have a catfight. It was all rehearsed and all that stuff but you know it's fun to beat the crap out of her.
Catching that there might be more to the story, Talking Dead host Chris Hardwick asked Dickens if she actually injured Ofelia Salazar actress Mercedes Mason, with Mason chiming in, "Yeah, did you hurt her, Kim?"

"I didn't hurt her," Dickens claimed with a smirk.
"The problem is I took her cinnamon roll in the morning," Mason began. "The rage came out." After a joke about how Dickens physically abused her on set, yanking her from the truck and kicking her in the face, Mason revealed the truth of a serious injury she acquired creating the scene. "We got a little excited and as she was pulling, I was pushing, and I think the combination just resulted in me falling on my shoulder and it popped out," Mason said. "They heard me screaming when they popped it back in on base camp which is like a mile away."
For Mason, the return to Fear the Walking Dead was tough enough. The injury was basically an icing on the cake. "I mean, come on! I lose my mom, I lose my dad, I lose my shoulder," Mason joked. "I get buried in sand!"
Mason had clearly recovered from the injury by the time she appeared on Talking Dead following the midseason 3 finale.
