In Fear The Walking Dead season 8, June has been cutting off the fingers of PADRE collectors and keeping them in a jar at home. This strange act symbolizes her attitude toward PADRE's manipulative ethos and her personal experience working for the group during the time skip. June's method of tranquilizing and mutilating enemies backfires when Shrike returns, and she finds herself in an even worse position. If she had been more concerned with putting a dent in PADRE's military strength rather than sending a symbolic message, the events of Fear The Walking Dead season 8, episode 2 may have played out differently.
