There were a lot of great scenes here, but the Ark and grounder standoff wins by a slim margin for me. I also lvoed the tense scene between Abby and Jaha.
ReplyDeleteFavorite scenes the stand off with the arks and grounders and everything with Abby and Jaha
ReplyDeletethe Finn and Clarke scene it shows that she's not scared of him and is still in love with him
ReplyDeleteSo many great moments but my votes go to the Clarke/Lexa meeting and Jaha/Abby fight.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite moment was when Bellamy told Clarke that her mom would be proud of her. SO much character and storyline growth there. Just full support and acceptance. I also love how protective Bellamy is over Clarke during the whole episode...first with Linc and then with the other Grounder. Trust, loyalty, protection...Bellarke has it all.
ReplyDeleteI liked when lexa told Clarke Finn had to die for their truce to begin nor because I don't like the character (even though I dont) but because of the intensity of that moment.
ReplyDeleteThe ending was great! It wouldn't have made sense if the grounders looked the other way in regards to the massacre.
ReplyDeleteAll Abby/Jaha scenes. Damn she is great! Don't mess with the Griffin women
ReplyDeleteEvery. Episode. Every episode just blows me away. I keep thinking " the next one can't possibly top THIS" and then a week later I'm like "Well, I'll be damned. they did it!" and then I rewatch it a billion times. I amrewatching the very first episodes right now and everybody is being ridiculously optimistic. They are all fresh-faced and happy and I keep thinking "they don't know what's coming".
ReplyDeleteI have to say the whole Abby, Jaha and Clarke scenes in the Ark including the scene of Abby ordering Jaha throw into the brig.
ReplyDeleteThat's how you know this show is amazing!
ReplyDeleteBetter n better w each episode ..... Makes the week wait excruciating ! : )
The entire Lincoln/Octavia/Bellamy/Clarke/Finn/Nyko storyline was just great. I used to really love Finn but can't blame the grounders for wanting their justice after what he's done. Also, the Bellarke moment was so sweet. They have become so close and protective of each other. Who needs Finn anyway when you have Bellarke.
ReplyDeleteHowever, gotta say I much prefered Anya as the grounder commander. She was more intense and well, older. Anyways, such an awesome show. Hope it gets renewed.
Far too many awesome scenes this week! My vote went to Clarke and Lexa scene, when they first meet.
ReplyDeleteOthers that stood out for me were the scenes between Cage and Dr. Tsing (Dr. Tsing is a psychopath) and the scene between Cage and his father, Wallace, in which I was sure Cage would kill of his father (at least twice) and usurp his authority.
Also really enjoyed the interactions between Monty, Jasper, Miller and Harper (?) and her scream at the end was really haunting!
Plus, the scene when Abby revives Lincoln and ends the standoff - a little melodramatic, but surprising and intense nonetheless!
Anxious and nervous for next's week's episode! :-/
I too felt sure Dante was going to die and was pleased when they didn't go the typical route. I think Cage is a sociopath too so it should be interesting to see what happens when Dante finds out what those two are doing.
ReplyDeleteThat's why I'm curious actually. Lexa called Anya her mentor and said she was "called" to lead her people. They don't strike me as a democratic bunch so I'm guessing she didn't get voted into power. Maybe it's more of a monarchy? Like shhe got send off to train with Anya before she had to take her place as ruler or something? I really hope we find out more about their society in the second half of the season.
ReplyDeleteThe reviving-Lincoln scene is my favorite even though I half wanted to laugh seeing the Grounders faces. They looked so...bewildered when Abby took a precious moment in the middle of a tense stand-off to just repeatedly hit a dead Lincoln with her weapon! And then Lincoln was alive again and Indra's face was all "wa-wa-waaaah?"
