Now that most of the UN is dead, will Avasarala be next in line for succession? (I hope so). Her fury at the preventable destruction, and her ability to circumvent being black-walled, is nothing short of amazing. At what point do we throw in the towel? And at what cost?Īs usual, Avasarala’s anger is a sight to behold. It’s clear it isn’t self-sustaining enough to survive in the long run. I also thought the concept of a failed colony was interesting not often in science fiction are we given a depiction of a colony in the midst of collapse like the one on Mars. Bobbie seems to think there’s a finite amount of emotion one can shed before you’re tapped out, but how much of that is her refusing to grieve for all the loss she’s experienced in the last few years? We only get a few minutes with the Martian duo but it’s a hard-hitting conversation surrounding emotional stamina and how long people can be expected to grieve. Obviously, the most pressing concern is what the terrorists are going to do with the protomolocule, but I’m also left wondering: Sakai was the one who was working on the Roci. The robot was quite the spectacle, as there was something menacing but also clinical about how it proceeded to complete its objectives despite all the firepower thrown at it. It’s clearly of Mars design (not just because it’s a ridiculously bright red, but because Bobbie specifically referenced it as one of the stolen models in the first episode). One of the coolest things in this episode was the robot that arrives shortly after Fred’s murder. I didn’t catch the assassin’s name at the time, but she is the Belter with the funky buns on her head. I, for one, was not expecting Fred Johnson to die! And definitely not by being shot in the back (I always assumed he go out heroically). Holden has another reason to be sad in this episode. And that was just from the initial crash, not any fallout from natural radiation and shockwaves. While we haven’t seen any footage on the ground from either area, the attacks will clearly have devastating consequences as the news reports had the death count in the millions. The second landed forty kilometers northwest of Philadelphia. What do we know about the consequences of the Asteroid’s landfall? The first one that hit was 200-300 kilotons. With Inaros’ asteroid attack, the social and political landscape of the galaxy has been irrevocably altered. Season 5, Episode 4 (“Gaugamela”) was a great episode of Amazon Prime’s The Expanse! This article includes spoilers galore for Season 5, so please watch the show before reading!
