I feel like you're giving this episode too much credit. The 100 does continue to explore some interesting themes.

From a pathological liar perspective, this is necessary for her lies to work. It was actually one of the things that really resonated with me because, in…
Yes, life requires a completely different epistemological process. Lines written by so-called "science fiction" writers who don't even understand what the word means. It's depressing.
