Wasn't that how they explained it when the Arker blood healed the MM faster than the Grounder blood? Besides, if the radiation on the ground were much stronger, the Arkers would have suffered some degree of burning. Their cosmic radiation levels must be much higher than the current ones.

He said "she" and "her" but didn't really state that there was an actual woman; he could have just as easily been referring to the AI itself. So it may not be a manifestation, but the same, actual "she."

He got right outside the door but could not open it.

Grounder anti-radiation genetic protection is too low for their marrow to be a permanent solution. When Jasper's blood healed Maya so fast, Dr. Nazi realized that the Arkers genes were so much better than the Grounders' that she could even create a permanent treatment with their marrow.

But the grounders were exposed to much lower levels of radiation than the ones experienced in the Ark, so the Ark bone marrow is multiple times more resistant to radiation than the grounder marrow. That's why the Arker blood heals them so many times faster than Grounder blood.

Season 1:
WATCH 1, 2, 4, 6, 7, 9, 11, 19 [if you hate Elias for some ungodly reason, then skip this], 20, 22, 23.

Yep, I find it funny after the way the expectations for this episode were listed in "What's on Tonight?"

Not really. The Avengers were clearly color coded so you could easily tell them apart from each other and throughout the action you could always tell which end was their head and which was their feet.

She probably told them that she would have done the same in their place. So truce.

I'll gladly vote for Lincoln for most (surprisingly) improved character.

She doesn't blame the warrior people for bailing on her because she has a much easier target for her blame. She's focusing all her blame on the Commander to keep the rest innocent in her mind.

He might not have carried her the entire way, just the first and last segments of the trip.

I thought the episode actually made it pretty clearly clear that they were on suicide missions that had less than a filament of a chance of working.

They already blew up a city.

I don't think that is totally fair. Yes, Jaha's companions all dying except Murphy was spectacularly obvious, but the show has surprised us a few times by having all the mortally imperiled people survive.

Not if you're a toddler or, like Maya, actively fight against the evil leadership.

I think the real tragedy of this episode and (really) of this whole season is that there was no need to find a middle ground, acceptable solution; it was always freaking right there!

I thought it was uplifting in the strange uplifting sense that Saw survivors get.
