Makes me wish HBO would just purchase SyFy and give it all the cash they need to pump into awesome sci-fi shows like colony and the expanse without a sword hanging over them.

But Colony and The Expanse aren't exactly the same thing. Both have a different focus.

You can't answer all questions in a single episode. Besides I believe this was consistent with her character and gravity of the situation. She had been very secretive and not forth coming with info. especially since Will almost helped capture her.

This is the only feasible none tacky way they could ever have a hope of winning or effectively resisting the far technically superior raps. Without going in the direction of the intellectually insulting "Independence day" or "Falling skies".

Exactly what i've been saying. A real mother could possibly sell out for far less to simply keep her child alive. While Maddie did have a bit of naivety about her, her motivations weren't vain.

Thing is Colony isn't a SyFy show and ratings are lower than Season 1. If any USA exec. is reading this if you dare cancel Colony..I have a chain saw with your name on it ..lol..jk..maybe.

It could be possible that the defected Rap already hacked the system identifying them as potential hope for the human race before it defected.

She was fanatical, there is no talking sense into someone like that. She had to go.

Their drone is about the size of a bumble bee (and looks just like one). Not out of place really..given all the crazy things going on.

Not really…I just have a weekly mansplaining quota to fulfil. ;)
The show is awesome though. We can both agree on that.

I'd imagine tea would be hard to come by if the World has been eviscerated by a militant alien race.

He could have just used any of the dead ambassadors hands and left a print on the wall next to the body. Seemed like common sense to me.

Of course she cared about him as far as he was a part of her mission to blow up the ship and a new recruit to the red hand.

Having sex with Bram doesn't mean she gave a shit about him.
She could have done that way before the crucial mission when he could get cold feet. She could have done it more than once. She could have kissed him way before..not once did she talk about having any feelings for him..it was all about the mission.

It is plausible that the red hands had inside help. Besides given that they are understaffed due to the massive losses they have suffered, Bram was hardly a high security target or fugitive up until they discover his hand print.

Nope..she was a skilled manipulator..and he was just a means to an end. If she was indeed in love with him she would have been conflicted about her suicide-mission.

What saved the episode was the directors creative and skillful use of cut-aways and seemingly disjointed action sequences being beautifully sown together by the ending scene. Not anything special done by Bram the character or the actor.
