I was thrilled that (at least for now) Simone’s presence didn’t create a petty love triangle. I feel like that’s probably Trevor’s first task in the next episode.

After how Jasper went from one of my favorite characters to me possibly wanting to punch real life Devon Bostick in the face, I think that this was probably the best sendoff Monty was going to get. It was either this, OR some gory, brutal death that served no purpose other than to be gory and brutal (see Kane, Marcus*)…

I assumed they were saving that line for Murphy or Emori. Also, I figured I’d ask you. How the fuck does that Rover still work?!

Unusually-attractive-kru? If you meant the number, I would have no idea, but I’m rooting for hundo now. I still think having “clean water” in Trigedasleng translate to “set for life” was a great decision on the part of the writers and language creator.

I definitely feel the writers could work this in as a funny Emori-Murphy conversation.

I was pleasantly surprised by the fight. I did love how Octavia’s “everybody fights” thing worked and how Bellamy buckled. Also, for all of the show’s trying too hard to show “Badass Octavia” her response when Gaia threw the spear was the most badass thing she’s ever done and I’d bet money the writers didn’t plan it…

According to The 100 Wiki’s entry on Becca, that was Becca being burnt alive at the stake by The Second Dawn cult.

Are they setting us up to not like Octavia so we don’t feel bad when she gets fridged (likely by Bellamy) and sets up Bellamy to have a Jasper-esque wambulance ride about Octavia’s death in Season 6?

Clarke: Yesterday, we just let Xenomorph worms eat a political rival alive. So what’s your story?
Vinson: So umm...you’re Mom cured my lung thing, but now I’m too scared to move.

I can see that we’re rehashing the “Damn It Abby!” storyline from the second season. However, considering that led to the great end scene in S2 E11 where Clarke says “you may be the Chancellor, but I’m in charge,” I’m OK seeing where this goes.

Don’t get too excited everyone. That’s the first sentence in a paragraph of text :-/ However, I could buy some sort of “Gay til Graduation the Ground” experience especially if the choice is that or her and pre-Echo Bellamy.

That’s awesome. With their combination of semi-stable income and what I imagine to be many good looking female friends to whom I can be introduced, I wish they were my roommates too. Also, I will say the Raven-Echo dynamic is the one dynamic I enjoyed this episode because an intelligent person can see how each side…

I recognized Luisa d’Oliveira from Cracked (a decent enough police procedural) so I learned she’s gorgeous ages ago. What I did not realize was that she’s almost 32 (note Richard Harmon is 26).

I thought he did tell her. Wasn’t that the whammy where Dale said she hadn’t had sex with anyone, but since Clive had sex with another partner she was OK acting on it? I know I could look that up, but laziness.

Well according to Peyton, it was less than ten minutes to Ravi’s mild dismay.

I’ve never said this about the CW before, but they needed more episodes this season. There were simply too many balls in the air for it to land properly. I’m pretty disappointed in the cure storyline. A tiny piece reverses zombieism in rats, but a whole brain is required for a single human cure? Not impossible, but…

If I found out that my ex-fiance who I cared about was about to turn herself in to a mentally unstable man for execution I just watched shoot two of my teenage subordinates I would also kidnap said ex-fiance. I disliked the use of the elderly couple’s brain as a sort of tranquilizer and they should have gone a…

So I understand that based on all the moving pieces why Ravi hasn’t shared his creation of the cure with any outside parties (risk of his research being stolen again by Blaine, war hawks wanting to nuke Seattle anyways), but like he’s going to Facebook Live this immediately right? Well not Facebook Live, but like…

I agree with your quibble as a general sentiment, but in the case of Teddy it didn’t get to me because 1) the show never treats it as acceptable or normal 2) Teddy never expresses any entitlement to Amy and 3) Teddy is not a regular character.
This isn’t Boyle-Rosa during Season 1 (something they thankfully course…

Boyle was actually the one thing that I wasn’t totally on board with this episode. Boyle’s eccentricities always walk a fine line and I think they crossed it a couple of times this episode. This was still a top tier episode and if it had been the series finale I would have no complaints (other than the lack of future…
