Jaha was a real powerhouse in this episode so my vote went to him even though there was a lot to love in this episode overall.
ReplyDeleteHere's what I know for sure: It wasn't Anya dying.

I think the fight between Anya and Clarke. It was so epic and unexpected.
ReplyDeleteI loved all things Raven and Raven and Wick. The fight between Anya and Clarke was fantastically brutal and may be one of the best I've seen outside of a comic/superhero show. Jaha with the mother and son (Zorn?) scenes were all simply wonderful. In the final scene when he looked at the mother, it was with resolve and respect. The camp needs Jaha. Sooner rather than later.
ReplyDeleteIt's always impossible to pick just one favorite. I did vote for the Blake siblings reunion but I could easily have picked all of the above. Wick & Raven is a bit of fresh air and the bickering back and forth really adds a comic relief in an otherwise very dark show. We all need breathers, right?!
ReplyDeleteVoted for the Anya/Clarke fight ... what an awesomely choreographed sequence that was!
ReplyDeleteSecond fave scene has to be the rescue of Mel by Bellamy, Murphy, Finn and Monroe and Bellamy subsequently reuniting with Octavia.
Also worth mentioning are the final scene between Anya and Clarke (sob), Raven and Wick interactions and Jaha in the dead zone!
Anya bitting the tracker out of her arm was badass, but I voted for Raven/Wick scenes. Dealing with her paralysis with a good (handsome) support was my top favorite scenes of the episode.
ReplyDeleteWhy cant i pick more than one?? well, probably i'd picked them all :)
ReplyDeleteLol - there should be a choice of :
ReplyDeleteAll of the above !
The episode was amazing ! T100 just keeps getting better and better.
* Jaha giving himself up for the sake of the boy's safety
* Finn and Bellamy's not-a rescue rescue
* Octavia's horn blowing reunion
* Grease Monkey - Engineer
* All Anya & Clarke scenes ! 'You fought well' - Anya FINALLY accepts Clarke as a 'worthy' warrior - even working together, only to be gunned down by The Adults.
I hold out hope that she isn't really dead and Abbie will revive her.
ReplyDeleteIt was one of the best action sequences of the show in my opinion.
ReplyDeleteJaha was amazing throughout. I like how he compared the choices he made with Wells to this mother and son. I think it's why he was so resolved in the end. The actor did a great job of portraying complex emotions without a lot of dialogue.
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed the comedic aspects too because sometimes this show is so bleak. Octavia and Bellamy's reunion was another favorite of mine.
ReplyDeleteI was pleased to see them take the action scenes up a notch. I like that Anya and Clarke were well-matched as well.
ReplyDeleteI like the how he gave Raven the confidence she needed to accept her limitations right now but still showed how the camp needed her.
ReplyDeleteSome episodes are just tough to make a choice. Did you decide?
ReplyDeleteI love that Anya was willing to work with Clarke in the end. It showed growth and promise, which of course was immediately killed off. This show won't allow too much optimism in one episode.
