I think I love Echo now as much as I love Clarke and Raven. Put Emori in the mix, who I really like too, that is a hell of a girl squad 

Moral implications be damned, this episode was great. Clarke’s maneuvering was fabulous, it had me on the edge of my chair more than the 100 has in seasons.

Yeah, they reallly forgot about Jordan in all this. Well, there’s so many balls in the air, what can you do. We all care about Madi a lot more than Jordan anyhow.

Clarke quickly deciding to get one of the Prime’s to talk by threatening to smash Simone’s flashdrive/chip/whatever it is was one of my favorite moments. It’s always good to see her embrace her inner Wanheda

Abby has been awful “lately?” She’s been pretty awful from the getgo. She spends most of her time telling Clarke to do the opposite of the wrong thing in between asking “what about my daughter?” and being addicted to something?. Actually, I’m hoping she stays who she is in the same way Angel killed Fred but left her…

Abbie has been awful lately and I want to try to be respectful of her as a character overall, who has had some good moments and many terrible ones. But if as I think is true she is the last of the grown-up leaders from the ark, after Kane’s death, and they are all dead and gone from the show now, it should probably be…

No, you’re absolutely right. It was heavily telegraphed. Though to be honest I only caught that in hindsight because I wasn’t really thinking about it at the time. It was one of those “oh duh I really should have seen that coming” moments.

I feel like Gabriel was appropriately very impressed by how Clarke (who he knows is not Josephine) pulled off the impersonation in spite of being crossed up by meeting a Prime in the body of her murdered mother

There’s Abby not only reconciling with Raven, but then being surprisingly taken as a host for Simone.

This episode was awesome I can't wait to the season finale. Abby being killed was unexpected, but Clarke is a leader and will find her way out of this. Season 6 is freaking awesome so far. I for sure thought Season 6 was going to be a dud, but I am so happy that I was wrong!

-Turning Abby into Simone was a five star plot twist. Bravo everyone

I was surprised at how cool it was for Clarke and Echo to be reunited, in a very appropriately badass way, in a way that undermined any tension between them over Bellamy, which I think the show has very smartly avoided 

Abby willingly sacrificing herself so that the others she was with might be spared is the first time (and necessarily last time) that she will embrace that “do better” philosophy. It was nice seeing her go out doing something wholly selfless.

Octavia and Diyoza were a really great pairing in this one, but I also really liked Murphy & Emori & her belated acceptance of his proposal (so romantic!), Echo & Emori (the two grounder women I don’t think spoke to each other but their eye contact with each other & refusal to betray each other was significant), Echo…

I went to my first SW Celebration this year and the running of the Willrow Hoods was magical.

I feel like Diyoza had her reasons and they probably were pretty sensible 

Diyoza is great. I don’t know if I ever want to know about Diyoza’s numerous crimes. I have a hard enough time dealing with a certain iZombie character so her crimes would be a huge stretch to overlook. I always assumed they were politically charged with a large, demographically lopsided body count. However, the…

The Diyoza-Octavia teamup is the best thing the show has going this season 

If you haven’t already, be sure to check out her work in the film CLIMAX. It’s a dance film channeled through Gaspar Noé.

With the exception of just her (I think), all the actors are trained dancers that the team found and they all really pull it off.

Yep she was almost happy to watch her father be choked out and almost killed. Josephine is coldblooded but i like her.
