My reactions while watching the episode...
- Emori and Murphy trying to help everyone MY HEART
- if Sheidheda thinks he can lay a hand on Madi he is SORELY MISTAKEN
- Madi is just feeding Picasso, minding her own business
- LOVE IS NOT A WEAKNESS FOR THE LAST TIME
- cause Indra is a bad bitch you rakes no shit from anyone
- IF HE KILLS PICASSO, I SWEAR
- can I just hug Madi right now
- Clarke's heart is breaking even more with her friends not going back
- tho Octavia does have some form of emotion showing
- "non-essential personnel" hits different now
- "get the FLOCK out of here" LOVE IT
- HOW DID I NOT REALIZE THAT our girls never told them the Flame is no longer in Clarke
- "3 most dangerous women on this or any planet" DAMN RIGHT
- so the Hope and Echo friendship is over
- OR NOT
- oh thank God. I actually thought Echo was turning to the dark side
- Madi and Murphy I didn't know I needed this
- Emori and Murphy are Madi's surrogate parents while Clarke isn't here, I accept no arguements
- I'm so ready for Indra to END Sheidheda
- confirmed: Callie was the OG Flamekeeper and was such a legend her ENEMIES cried when she died
- Bill thinks he's so funny (he's not)
- no one is a God Bill, let it go
- well you are out of luck, the Flame is destroyed
- Jordan is proving to be Monty's son with his peace talk
- Gabriel leaving with a gun is just funny to me
- MY GIRLS HUGGING IT OUT MY HEART
- Octavia always knew they would come for them
- "Just hug me back Miller" WHY IS THIS SO EMOTIONAL MY GOD
- Our kru meeting Hope for the first time, YES PLEASE
- Diyoza is such a mom with Hope
- Octavia forgoing getting off Bardo to save Levitt and everyone automatically following her gives me such joy
- please do not tell me those who are left will turn on Murphy and Emori (I know they hate them but still)
- that lunch does NOT, repeat NOT, look appetizing
- ok but hearing Bill and Gabriel speak of their day, aka modern day, is something I didn't expect. THEY ARE TALKING MEMES
- "join the war to save the human race, by renouncing everything that makes me human" THANK YOU FOR SAYING IT GABRIEL
- This bitch is still salty over Callie and his wife
- now Bill is alone, NOT GOOD
- NO LEVITT IS HURT
- I AM PISSED AT ECHO
- oh no, she got the Gem9
- my heart hurts that Octavia left Levitt, but I know why and it still hurts
- JORDAN IS GEEKING OUT ABOUT KOREAN, IDK WHY BUT THIS IS SO CUTE
- a test for the human race, Cadogan should NOT take it SO RIGHT
- DO NOT SPEAK LEXA'S NAME YOU MONSTER
- Indra kick his ass, but now I'm worried that she is falling into Sheidheda's plan
- I am LOVINF this fight rn, the choreography is BEAUTIFUL
- Indra GET UP
- PLEASE DON'T DIE
- YES MADI YES
- nonono Indra no
- DONT YOU TOUCH MADI
- Ok, so Knight doesn't want to kill the kids, at least he had SOME morals
- Murphy is a full fledged hero, I don't care if he says otherwise HE IS
- Echo don't do it
- this is NOT the way to honor Bellamy
- Clarke KNOWS what Echo's plan feels like
- oof,.Raven brings up Bell's season 3 arc to argue against Echo
- "Echo you're my sister amd my sister wouldn't do this" RAVEN MY LOVE
- "you people disgust me" trust us, YOU disgust US as much and they disgust you, and Miller's face was GREAT, he's just like "yea I can see that and I don't care"
- ok so I'm glad he is finally dead but still
- HOPE NO REVENGE IS NOT THE PLAN
- NONONO DIYOZA NONONO MY HEART I CAN'T
Overall thoughts...
- so a lot happened this episode, here we go
- first of all, while I don't particularly like or care for the Sheidheda storyline, I am LIVING for this new side of Murphy. He has become the man he was always meant to be. I recently saw a post where someone said, "Murphy went from wanting Charlotte, a 13 year old child (demon child) to die, to protecting the children of Sanctum, putting them first" and this is the best character growth on the entire damn show.
- also, MURPHY AND EMORI ARE MADI'S NEW PARENTS, SORRY CLARKE. the way both of them instantly thought of her, Murphy helping her and calming her down, THAT HUG, and Emori promising to keep her safe. I swear my heart EXPLODED.
- we are a long way from "you were cooler in the stories"
- also, I loved the fight between Sheidheda and Indra. The fight choreography was AMAZING. I also love the fact that Madi jumped in but don't like it cause that's what made Indra kneel to Sheidheda.
- also, WHERE THE ACTUAL FUCK IS GAIA???!!!! LIKE HONESTLY, IM MORE CONCERNED ABOUT HER THEN BELLAMY AT THIS POINT!! (and I know it was partially because Tati was filming the last season of Sabrina BUT STILL)
- moving to Bardo, I kinda liked seeing the Gabriel/Cadogan scene. It was a change of pace and something different to the show we all know. It also gave us more insight into Cadogan's mind, and let me just say CRAZY
- for a moment there I actually thought out girls were gone. Idk WHY I thought that, when it really should have been obvious they had a plan, but oh well.
- THE REUNIONS THO!!! Clarke immediately going to hug Octavia makes me miss their friendship. It has always been rocky, but it is true and loving.
- especially since, technically the last time they really saw Octavia, she was still coming back from Bloodreina. I'm glad they are all getting to see her for who she is now, making up for her sins.
- and Octavia and Miller, although a brief scene, had my heart so full it was unreal. Miller was Octavia's right hand as Bloodreina, something he now deeply regrets. And to see him actually hugging her, makes me think he is forgiving her in his own way.
- Jordan thinking (and I believe he is right) that they translated the ancient text wrong is an interesting direction to take. I've seen it done before, but idk how they would wrap all this up in like 6 episodes.
- ok let me just say, I no longer feel sympathy for Echo. I did at the beginning and I've tried, but she is just pissing me off now. I get revenge, I do, but she is missing the bigger picture here.
- SHE LITERALLY BEAT LEVITT TO FIND OUT THE INFO!!! And I am a little salty at Octavia leaving him. I get why she did it, but I'm still salty.
-Raven stopping Echo with a heart to heart is not what i expected but I'm glad it happened. Again, we didn't really see ANY of this character development from the 6 years on the Ark, so it's always cool to see those shine through.
- also, 10/10 for bringing up Bellamy and the Grounder massacre from season 3. Bellamy regrets that and hates himself for what he did. He will til the day he dies (cause he's not dead) and Echo knows this.
- although Echo did have a point when Clarke was trying to talk her down. Everything Clarke has done, all her decisions, have been for those she loved. She's never really killed people for revenge.
- I am also pissed at Hope. She wants revenge, they took everything from her, I KNOW, and I am glad that Anders is dead. But at what cost.
- DIYOZA IS DEAD! I HATE THIS! I REALLY WANTED HER TO MAKE IT TO THE END! I WANTED EVERYONE TO SEE OCTAVIA AMD DIYOZA TOGETHER. I WANTED HER TO BE A MOM AGAIN. I WANTED HER TO BOMD AT LEAST A LITTLE WITH THE KRU. I WANTED TO TAKE PUT THE REST OF ELIGIUS CREW (who we haven't seen or heard about in quite some time) BACK IN THEIR PLACE!
- may we meet again Diyoza. Yu gonplei ste odon
- and I'm worried at what is gonna happen when Cadogan finds out Clarke doesn't have the Flame and that it is actually fried and useless. I don't see that going over well.
- I also watched the promo for next week. BELLAMY IS CONFIRMED ALIVE BITCHES. HE IS NOT DEAD AND IT LOOKS LIKE WE ARE GETTING A BELLAMY CENTEIC EPISODE!!! it almost appears as if he is on Nakada??? The burial planet for Bardo, so it will be a fun episode to watch.
- Also Levitt finding out he's alive makes me so happy I don't know why. Like, is Levitt gonna tell Octavia? Does he still trust her? Will he rescue Bellamy?
That's it for this episode. Let me know what you guys thought.
