January 6, 20214 yr this weeks episode was a bit of a recovery episode after 3 pretty fantastic eps. Not that it was bad, but they clearly paced the episode so that it wasnt balls to the wall like the last few.

January 8, 20214 yr Author Maybe it helps to see them outside of the show? Headshots. Drummer is Cara Gee. Monica is Anna Hopkins.

January 14, 20214 yr Author I love a lot of stuff this dude puts out, but he finally got around to The Expanse:
January 14, 20214 yr She’s really getting the spotlight this season. And doing amazing. I find her too dramatic and a little annoying. She and Bobbi seem to have inverted character arcs. Bobbi is getting better and Naomi is getting more annoying. I do find her kid more annoying than both and though I am a few episodes behind, I hope he dies. Maybe I just don’t appreciate their backstories as much. Bobbi is too guarded and bitchy but she has a reason having been run out of the military. She is just too humorless. Amos is walking PTSD but still has a bit of humor without violating that PTSD dead eye stare. I like Drummer and her shift from subordinate to Klaes and Fred to a leader was good.
January 14, 20214 yr I hate an Amosless episode, but that was OK. I kind of agree on Naomi, the “MY CHILD!!!” stuff was getting a little tiresome. Maybe that ending changes things up. The Roci is so badass.

I got the impression that Holden's crew was chasing the ship that had it (zumaya I think, right?) but it was off scope for a significant amounts of time. That's why they were scanning for the Mars ships also that Marco just acquired because they could be meeting with the ship. Earlier in the episode, Marco asked to borrow Naomi's ship from Phillip which was unusual. So my thought was he would send Naomi's ship to offload the protomolecule because it was some random ship that Naomi purchased/rented that no one (Holden in particular) knew about.

I also wouldn't think Marco would blow it up, but the more I think about it - he just has to make sure Holden or anyone else can't capture it. Whether the Belters have it or not does not matter. It's the threat that they do.

So my thought was he would send Naomi's ship to offload the protomolecule because it was some random ship that Naomi purchased/rented that no one (Holden in particular) knew about. Ah. I can see that. I got the impression the PM was already given to the MCRN based on the comment by the reporter - that the PM was half the payment for the MCRN ships, and other half was the scientist (Cortazar). Someone (can't remember if it was here or somewhere else) said that if you look one of the torpedoes goes a different direction than the rest on the Zemeya during the firefight, so they thought it was them sending the PM away via torpedo. And they blew themselves up, so there's no way the PM is still on board. Either way, I honestly can't remember how the PM sample is handled in the book since it's been a while since I read them, and I don't plan on going back to check during the season, so I guess I'll just wait to find out what actually happened to it.
January 15, 20214 yr I read the books years ago, so I can't comment openly. From the show, I have no idea where the protomolecule is. Book spoiler below: Spoiler IIRC, the protomolecule was payment to the breakaway Mars fleet that goes through the ring gates and hides themselves away for a couple of decades.
January 20, 20214 yr My face hasn’t been blown off yet but I’m pretty excited for the last 2 episodes
January 20, 20214 yr She’s really getting the spotlight this season. And doing amazing. I find her scenes damn near unwatchable. Every scene is an emotional breakdown over how much she loves Filip and regrets abandoning him, ending with her crying. I wonder if Dominique Tipper gets annoyed when she reads a script and realizes she has to cry 4 times in an episode.Also, it seems to me that the protomolecule still exists because Naomi gave it to Fred Johnson, and her current season 5 struggles occurred because she chased Filip and got herself captured. Her emotions dictate her actions which causes problems for everyone.The best episodes have lots of Amos and less of Naomi.
January 21, 20214 yr Loved the opening with Amos and Peaches pissing in the field. A little too much Naomi and not enough everyone else. I guess they want to show that she really struggled to get her message out.

I actually thought she was going to do the right thing and blow the ship up herself.
January 27, 20214 yr Unless the episode is 3-4 hours long, I don’t feel like we are anywhere near being able to resolve the storylines in a way that feels satisfying

It will be resolved at the end of season 6, if it follow the books. Been a while since I've read the book, but from what I remember, Nemesis Games can be wrapped up in one more episode, easily. DO NOT READ FURTHER IF YOU HAVENT READ THE BOOKS Spoiler Naomi ejects from the ship and Bobbie rides the missile to get her (that might be the coolest visual of the season, if they pull it off) Holden meets up with them and they rendezvous on Luna with Amos, who sneaks Peaches onto the ship Avasarala announces her task force against the Free Navy and Naomi gets the immunity for spilling the beans on Marcos MCRN ship enters the Laconian ring and ends with the alien fog killing them to end the season, which would be almost as cool as the ship being taken apart atom by atom on Venus Big question to me is if they introduce Duarte at the very end or not at all, since they won't go past book 6. But book 6 is also Fred's death, so I wonder if they speed up Avasarala's death from the time jump?
January 27, 20214 yr I was hoping naomi would blow herself up, and I pray for Filip to suffer an agonizing death.
January 28, 20214 yr I am hoping Marco strangles Philip. I was really shocked and excited when Naomi went out the airlock. Then she survived and sucked some more. I used to think Holden was too dramatic. This season seems like they hired Walking Dead writers and thought the Farm was the pinnacle of that series. It feels like half of this season has revolved around Naomi being stupid and her stupid son’s stupid face.
January 28, 20214 yr Are we supposed to know where Naomi was going at the end?I dug the whole shuttle heist part of the episode, even though Peaches was being a pain in the ass.

It would seem her motivation is to not get sucked into anxiousness and maintain the peace so she doesn't enter berserker mode. Quote

Also, the dude with his hand in his shirt (Amos' brother by another mother?) is terribad. Horrible horrible acting. Show has contracted the GOT syndrome.

He knows he lacks empathy or something, so he latches onto somebody he knows has a strong sense of morality.
