Clarke could always give them a bone marrow injection. It's untested and might not work, but it's better than nothing.

There's a few references to genetic engineering going on aboard the Ark, so I'm not sure if normal genetic diversity issues apply.

If it occurred before, it would have been immediately after the nuclear apocalypse 100 years ago, and wouldn't have been as strong as the current, power plant fueled rain.

Them kissing would be kind of a dick move towards Harper, though.

They were probably expecting a nuclear apocalypse to occur because of escalating geo-political tensions, something you could see coming at least a few days before it happened (ala the Cuban Missile Crisis). A rogue computer program taking over the world's nuclear arsenals and blowing everyone up probably wasn't a…

A five year timeskip is actually EXACTLY what I'm expecting. That sort of thing is hardly unheard of in this sort of serialized TV show; both Lost and Battlestar Galactica did it, and those shows are big part of The 100's DNA.

Niylah just has more chill than everyone else on this show combined.

Though the only person who knows how bonkers he went in late Season 2 is Murphy, the guy nobody trusts. Everyone else on his expedition died. Which is still a bit of a red flag, I admit.

I did, and I might have felt cheated by her science-magic survival, except they paired it up with Jasper's death. Having one main character kill himself because he's just tired of living, while another lives through sheer determination to survive, that's kinda beautiful.

Yeah, it came down to whether they trusted Octavia to be able to keep a retribution genocide from happening. I kinda like that one of the themes of the season is Clarke choosing the most pragmatic option, but having that option rejected in favor of something riskier but less morally awful.

I don't remember who dealt the finishing blow, but I'm pretty sure it was someone on the team who killed Jasmine, who was retroactively the Big Bad the entire time.

So, based on the promo for next week's Flash episode, Barry's going to be breaking into Argus to get a piece of equipment to stop Savitar. Is that how Chase is planning to escape? Has the entire Savitar plotline this season been part of Chase's plan from the beginning?

Rene not showing up was my "they're not actually going to . . . oh my god, they're doing it" moment. I really didn't think they were going to have him just not show up, and it broke my heart a little.

I think Oliver probably figures there's a "three people in a lifeboat, only enough water for one" exemption going on there.

He did mention it to Barry during the crossover this season, though.

He's immortal AND he feels no pain. We saw that in his debut episode, where he got back up after being declared dead and survived an Oliver-delivered neck-breaking.

Since they don't know this is all part of Chase's plan, they probably figured showing Oliver telling the press that Chase has been captured would be a nice kick in the nuts for him.

Wait, his name is Jefferson Pierce? And we already have Jefferson Jackson on Legends of Tomorrow.

Write that fanfic. Now.

By that standard, though, does Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon really count?
