The chip has the same symbol as the Flame, so it's not completely stupid, just mostly.

Luna will die. Ontari will get the Flame. AI fight ensues.
Or Raven figures out nightblood, Clarke gets the Flame, Lexa and Clarke live virtually ever after.

The cut out part makes sense, it can go in by itself, not out.
I'll come up with the cut in reason. It's more pleasant to put the chip where it goes than to have it dig its way through the skin and muscle.

X-Men? The Core? He's the goto guy for the odd looking geek.

Allow me to explain.

They did show that. Well, it was the back of her head, so the actress was probably unavailable. She said Martin looked familiar, but she just couldn't place him.

Give him some Centurion armour. Which is how Darvil should be playing Rip, someone trying ro save his family.

Revolvers and lever action rifles haven't changed much since the late-1800s.

He wasn't an idiot back then. Marvel really needed the money.

Bellamy can be redeemed.
It will take an act of self-sacrifice that saves Skaikru and Trikru.
(He manually sets off the EMP bomb that takes out ALIE's chips.)
He doesn't have to die, but it's only through some miracle he doesn't.

I'm sure she loved him, but she wasn't in love with him. Also, the difference between having Lexa taken away and putting Finn away.

I was wondering that, too.
They have to take it willingly, but there's no reason they couldn't be tortured to do so. And, if they are then "released," it could lead to the rest of the Grounders being infected.

True, but Clarke didn't really lose Finn. Clarke gave up on Finn when he had the Crazy..

That's the exact moment to take it. Lashing out at a group you are trying to lead is a really bad idea.

She also has a greater understanding of Jasper, since she just lost Lexa.

Seriously? The entire episode is trying to get a chip out of Raven to remove her connection to an AI and internet of people called the City of Light. Why would anyone in that room question that Lexa could be in the other chip?

He couldn't hurt Clarke by killing Lexa, unlike what Clarke had done to him.

This show never had a hill to go down.
It isn't a bad show, and it isn't a good show.
It's a show that is lucky to have an audience that really wants it to succeed.
It's similar to pre-Winter Soldier Agents of SHIELD. Although, AoS had a reason to be in a holding pattern.
This show needs to grow a beard, or in the case of…

Let's truly be real, no one on this team should have an issue with most of the issues the team has had this season.

The show hasn't been renewed yet, and it had a large ratings drop.
