The museum showing 'atrocities' by US troops is very similar to the American War Museum in Ho Chi Minh City. They have a full floor dedicated to injuries and birth defects from Agent Orange.

I wasn't expecting a straight up 'no' from her.

She's one of the first characters on the show that just looks Belter. Her ancestry mixed with some good costume and that accent give her such an usual look that screams 'not from Earth'.

Nice spotting!
Didn't Marcos talk about his father at point in the book?

I'm still stunned at the pace in which this show moves. Granted they have a lot of source content but the temptation to slow things down to pad out more episodes must be tempting.

Yeah, tis a bit of a plot hole. They're also nuking the surface which would feed it a lot of radiation.

In the books (yes I'm being that guy) gender, race and sexuality were very much mixed. The TV show seems to be lacking the third one of those for now.

Steven Strait (Holden) looks a lot like a young Billy Bob Thornton. Kinda makes the wooden/laid back approach work.

I really hope they're not going to just absorb Sam's character into Drummer.

Nah, he's just a badass. They kinda gloss over his backstory but he's been a street thug most of his life.

I thought the same thing. However Frankie is an amateur boxer and is 6 feet tall. Her lack of acting experience is probably the biggest thing holding her back
