Exactly right. Clarke puts Sky People above other people. Part of that is (presented by the show as) the responsibility of a leader. It's actually harder for her to show mercy to the "Other," because doing so betrays the trust her people have put in her to guide and protect them. She has to put them first, it is

One of my all-time favorite shows. The funny squiggle-vision drawings and the little music stings made it the perfect joke-delivery platform; a perfect dressing for a million little stand-up bits. The Katz, Ben, Laura stuff was great, too. Hilarious timing on all of it.

It's at least 3: Curtis, Garza, and Jason (Terry Chen, Luvia Petersen, Ian Tracey).

Quick note: Kane isn't really the real ticking time bomb. Raven is. She watched Clarke ride out to save the village from a missile attack. So when word gets to Camp Jaha, something should hit the fan.

I think Indra is a close, parental figure for Lincoln, as she is for the rest of his village (at least the warriors). I doubt she is his blood mother, but she could basically fill that role as necessary for the story's emotional stuff .

It's because she's low-hanging fruit.

Just caught this episode and thought it was great. I have to disagree with the reviewer that it felt stale. It felt tense and mobile to me. I guess that's because I dropped the assumption that everything would work out. In hindsight, I guess they wouldn't just kill Bellamy, but it still felt dangerous the whole

Andrea doesn't live in meth-head-shoot-people-in-the-face-land anymore.  She was desperate for news about Jesse, and Todd does look like the kind of dope Jesse would hang out with.   Normal people don't answer the door expecting to be shot…

Possible.  My underlying point is that Junior loves his dad.  The phone call as a fake-out is just much more consistent with his character up to that point and is a smarter, more awesome move than actually lying to the cops.

I think it's completely plausible for Jack to not kill Walter.  (Of course, killing him is also completely plausible.)  They actually like and respect Walter.  They don't know bumbling Walter that Tuco, Fring, and Mike knew.  Remember how Walt was introduced to Todd at Vamanos Pest?  The Boss. Don't even talk to him.

So am I evil for being annoyed with Junior in that scene?  Not for fighting his dad to protect his mom (that was commendable) but calling the police and lying about it.  "My dad attacked my mom with a knife and I think he killed somebody!"  So quick to turn on the "bad guy."  Sure Walt really is the Bad Guy, but

Nice episode.   It did a decent job of playing on my expectations (not Whedon level, but promising).
