Wow! What an episode! That Twist! Lexa, I should have known better but I guess her “head” wins more battles than leading with her “heart”.
Octavia realising she has no home broke my heart, her dedication to her brother is brilliant, “I won’t leave my brother”, Indra, “You are no longer my second.”
The Grounders trying to open the Door to Mount Weather is reminiscent to me of The White Walkers trying to get past the Wall on Game of Thrones :)
Are the writers insane? Lexa's mindfrack just ruined the whole show for me. I don't know if I even want to see the last ep now. All that build up for nothing.
I truly laughed so hard at that "betrayal." If you didn't see something along those lines coming from her, you haven't been paying attention to her dialogue. Raven/Wick/Octavia are the MVP's for me. Bellamy was great again and I just can't say enough how much I love Ray Barry as Dante. That end scene with Clarke was ominous and I loved it. Next week is going to be a nail biter for sure. I'm worried about my favorites coming out of this alive.
What...an...episode.... Thank god I'm not a shipper and wasn't into the "Clexa" thing, because I really hate Lexa right now. She may had her reasons, but I don't like her anymore. Poor Lincoln, still wanted to help, he'll have to decide, just like Octavia, which side do they belong. I can't wait for the finale, I wish it was on right now!
I know, and it worries me. I love all of the main characters but there are 6 that will make me mad enough to curse if they die. Raven/Octavia/Bellamy/Lincoln/Kane/Wick
Holy shit, Lexa did Clarke SO dirty. She threw her to the side of the curb like she was a piece of meat. Damn, should have seen that twist coming with the way she has been this whole time. Guess that's the Grounders for you, they only care about themselves. Wow. I need a minute.
As much as I didn't trust her, I trust the writers to throw another twist out there. I wouldn't be surprised to see her come back, showing weakness, when it's too late. I doubt it but I won't be surprised.
Amazing episode soon as I start to like Lexa she pull this wow at Octavia realize she has no home and saying I won't leave my brother and at the end with Clarke saying " it can't be over" I'm just saying all my favorites better come out alive next week Clarke Bellamy Raven Abby Octavia Jasper Monty
Amazing! I still like Lexa a lot, because she's a great character, but I feel so betrayed by her! It was so shocking! I felt so bad for Clarke in that moment! How can she ever trust anyone again? I do love how she's not ready to give up like the others! Go Clarke!
Oh yeah, I can definitely see another twist involving her if/when she comes back. I gotta admit, when I saw that Lexa betrayed her, it made me wonder if she does have a greater plan in store that she's not telling Clark and the others. Anyway, I just gotta applaud the writers for doing that plot twist. My head is still spinning from it. BRAVO.
So awesome!!! I really enjoyed Lexa's character when she was introduced. Then the writers had her spouting annoying leadership quotes & falling for Clarke. But this episode she's bounced back as an interesting character for me. I'm not saying she can't be both. But her feelings can't run that deep for Clarke because even if she assumes Clarke 'has' to turn back now.. Clarke obviously isn't going to. Clarke's going to go 10 times harder. But Lexa isn't evil & I get why she did what she did. Clarke knows why she did what she did. Maybe Clarke would've taken the deal. Maybe not. Either way that twist was WAY more fun than Clarke potentially running off to this capitol with Lexa so that's all I'll say on the matter. Octavia&Lincoln were perfect in their respective scenes. The little things always get me in this show. Octavia not turning back. Lincoln's talk with Miller's dad. Lincoln protecting Clarke. Raven's vulnerability. But okay the explosions & death & betrayal are awesome too. I'm also actually so impressed with the show. There's a build up to a battle (that we don't even get) and they can still produce such an exciting episode. There's nothing redundant at all from this part one&i'm assuming part two.. to the type of battle from last season so all the props to the writers... they really know what they are doing. Only complaint is that Marcus Kane was M.I.A.. Can anyone confirm if he was with the captured group in the promo? THE GANG IS BACK TOGETHER in the finale: Clarke Octavia Bellamy Jasper & Monty (with Maya) and a plan will be put into motion & I just can't wait. Also I think Dante might have orchestrated this whole thing. Avoid battle... get Clarke inside & attempt to negotiate with her to have the least blood spilt. Also the writers might attempt to have Lincoln convince Lexa Indra & co to return back but I just hope that doesn't happen because it kinda negates the badass plot twist from tonight. Let the kids finish this!!
Amazeballs! Not going to say I told you so, but never did like Lexa. I knew there was a reason. The Blake siblings are the best. Octavia, you're home is where your heart is. Dante, you disappoint me...Maya's dad...NOOOOO! Watch out for a majorly pissed off Clarke, Mt Weather and Grounders!!
I wondered why it never occured to the grounders to trade the sky people for theirs, but Ias counting on years of animosity and bloodshed to keep them from betraying the alliance. I guess Clarke's speech about rescue being the priority made an impact. Now I want that bitch Lexa to die. If Clarke manages to find volunteers among the people that would give bone marrow to the children, the mountain survivors would be eternally grateful for finally being allowed to the ground and having their lives spared. that would be a smart move.
Wow. That was an awesome twist. Lexa did indeed make decisions with her head. Poor Clarke. That Octavia/Indra scene broke my heart for Octavia when she said "I have no home". Blake siblings are the best. I am so disappointed in Dante and Lexa. But I am not surprised. Both of them are looking out for their own people. But ouch!! This season has been about maim Raven all the time. Poor girl is always injured one way or other.
So this season finale also our kids are going to stand against people who wants to kill them without any help from anyone. Now they have to even save their parents. I can't wait for all 40+ of them and the parents to be together.
Do you remember when Raven punched Baird right when they learned the grounders wanted to sacrifice Finn? How incredibly satisfying that was? And Dr. Tsing's Death! Ooooh, that was true justice! I can't wait for Lexa's Karma to kick her ass!
That is some effed up sh*t! All I can say is that I felt the betrayal too when it happened. I did NOT expect that turn of event. I'm so mad right now, I don't even care that it's just a TV show! lol
No other twist can undo the fuckery that Lexa just doled out. If this was the show's way to ensure no fan would care if Alycia Debnam-Carey left after the finale, I'd say they did their job with me.
I hear ya. I'm still mad the writers did that with Lexa...she was fast becoming one of my favorites. I'm so disappointed that I don't know if I can or will care to watch next week.
The thing is, when they wrote that ep, I don't think they knew at that time that we would get another season. So to me, it looks like the ultimate fan screwing. I kept waiting for there to be some sign that Lexa had something else going, but I don't know.
Clarke would have never taken the deal. She doesn't do betrayal. So basically, Clarke killed Finn for nothing in the end. The only way the show will have any redeeming value for me in next week's finale finale is if Lexa and the Grounders get their comeuppance in a viscous ruthless way. Also, I hope the show spends all of next week in the mountain, but you know that's not going to happen and we'll be stuck suffering through more of Moses, I mean Jaha, crap looking for the damn City of Lights. I'm over that storyline.
That Twist, was a cop out... The writers couldn't kill every god dam one of the guards... and then leave the ground with no enemies next season with only Grounders and Sky people.
But at least this way it will be back to our main group Clarke, Bellamy, Octavia, and the other 44 to save the day. If Wallace and his son don't get killed next episode I will be severely Pissed if there isn't a good explanation why they and all they don't die.
One can hope Lexa alone comes back to help, but who knows.
Btw she talked about another place, the capital, calling it Polis, a guy or Minneapolis?
Some of the shit the writers in this show write is like OUAT's Regina's Apples, looks good on the outside but there is something bad beneath the surface. - I eat the these apple at least 3 times this season.
I can't see anyway Lexa comes back to help. How could anyone after that level of betrayal? What I found interesting is how all the Arkers just walked away without any effing protest or what have you? Sheesh. No wonder Clarke's in charge. She's the only one with the resolve and determination to get the job done no matter what low-blow, back-stabbing, heinously-duplicitous obstacle is thrown her way.
Things I want to see next week: 1) Clarke kick serious ass as she exercises revenge while freeing her people 2) Bellamy exercising revenge while he helps Clarke free their people 3) Cage dead and done in a horrible way to wipe that damn smug look off his repugnant face 4) Dante maimed, humiliated or something equivalent 5) Lexa betrayed by her own people but ultimately dead and gone 6) Jaha not in the episode at all (this is a total long shot, I know)
I want all that too. But we are getting Jaha. And we don't who will be Clarke's Help from an Unexpected Source. Knowing the writers its the (that's not unexpected obvious help (applies to 3ppl), or another morale change help, or another twist help).Or maybe its some one unexpected lol?
I just want some god damn justice and revenge above all else.
I don't know why but people calling Lexa's actions OOC really annoys me. Yes, she likes Clarke but her loyalty has always been to her people first. She was the one who taught Clarke that love is weakness, that the dead are gone and the living are hungry. Just because she's known this girl for maybe two weeks doesn't mean her whole philosophy has been turned on its head. There's the difference between Clarke and Lexa: one thinks with the heart, the other with the head. They have learned from each other but are still different people in that aspect.
Can her "peace" with Mt Weather backfire? Sure. But for now her army's back and she kept the casualties on her side to a minimum. That's all that ever mattered to Lexa, maybe not as a person but definitely as the Commander of her people.
That twist! Dude! Lexa is such a great character! The betrayel of CLarke and the alliance hurts like hell, but Lexa taking that offer is understandable. She did what she had to to save her people. If they would have fought in the battle, she would have lost a ton of them. She even risked never being with Clarke for it, to save her people.
Clarke made me tear up, she was so hurt. It was so sad, but this will make her stronger than ever. She will save her people!
We definitely should have seen this coming, they have been hinting at this the whole damn time. God, I love this show: https://twitter.com/marakushah/status/573374398050271232
While Jaha's moses complex is annoying I get why he is like that haha and I enjoy the City of Light storyline mainly because its opening up the world & I'm sure the whole gang will end up there eventually. There's a lot of potential depending on how many seasons the show is renewed for. I also agree Clarke wouldn't have taken the deal but that's not to say she didn't understand where Lexa was coming from. I also want death haha I don't really care who dies from any of the recurring characters (Dante Cage Indra Lexa) but there definitely needs to be some death. I know lots of people enjoy Lexa's character & I do at times but I always thought her death would be good conflict for the sky people in regards to all the other clans.. But now with this betrayal I wouldn't necessarily find the alliance still in tact anyways lol so I don't how or if the writers are going to kill Lexa off. Seems to me she'll either come back for Clarke & attempt to redeem herself which I'll be really pissed about cause Clarke isn't just going to forgive her on a personal level because she understands leadership OR we'll be told Lexa has gone back to the capitol or whatever which is kind of cheap I'd rather just have a good ol fashioned death haha. But I'm definitely sticking with it.. you should too!
We might get to see Polis next season, it might be an invitation only type area. I think it also hints that Lexa might appear next season since shes the one who gave her the invitation but you never know :) Only time will tell.
Yeah :) It was a brief scene before they were about to drill into the door to Mount Weather. Lexa asked Clarke what she was going to do after the war was over and she said nothing and so Lexa said she should come with her to Polis and told her it was the Grounder Capitol. Hope that helps :)
I hope you're right. I just keep picturing what would have happened if the show wasn't renewed and they ended the entire series with Clarke standing at the door to the mountain. They really could have done that and skipped part two. I would have freaked out.
That would have been awful. I'm so glad this show has been renewed. All in all, I think it would have been better if they just had the two hours on one night. Some fans are, understandably, freaking out now and so mad at the show/writers/Lexa/Dante/Cage while they haven't even seen part two yet. It would be anti-climatic if there was no battle yet, and I'm sure there will be something in part two. The question is if these mad fans will stick around to watch it. Perhaps Lexa's betrayal is not what it seems and is explained in part two. I have no idea. I understand your frustration but it would be a shame if you missed the finale because of this.
Also, if you look at last year's finale, the real battle didn't begin until part two. I expect something similar this season.
No, I think they were real, but Lexa got her answer, Clarke has no plans for them after the war! so Lexa made a choice of not losing men just to be in Clarke's good graces! smart move I say.
Oh... Thank you! Bathroom breaks are the worst ;-) But it also makes no sense whatsoever. Why ask her something like that, when she knows she is only seconds away from betraying her?! I mean that is not only ice cold... it is borderline sociopathic.
I'm so sorry because I liked Lexa, a lot! And maybe I can uderstand why she did it... But NO! Now Raven will be tortured for the 1538322432 time and Clarke killed Finn for nothing! I will never forgive her. But this is my opinion...
I think it might be Wick or Raven. Or Lincoln! who knows what will happen to him now? I'm hoping the grounder Bellamy allied himself with in the mountain will jump on Lincoln's "Sky People should be save"-train
It looks like Abby...Kane would be too obvious. Raven maybe. I am just wondering shouldn't kane be unconscious? I mean he didn't look that good in the last episode he was in. And just a few days later he is fine? He really forgot to type in the numbers :)
can anybody explain: how those guards with guns get out of Mount Weather (those who made the deal with lexa) if the dam, the tunnels, and the door were all guarded by the army of the grounders? Is there another way out?
I'm only a so-so watcher of The 100. I usually record it and watch it later but I ended up actually watching it last night and I think I figured out why I've never really gotten into the show. Other than being bossy and having a big-mouth can someone who really likes the show explain to me why Clarke is the leader. She really isn't very good at it. I just assume that all of her plans will fail and they'll end up worse than they were. I wasn't surprised at all that Lexa sold her out. I'd chose Octavia or Bellamy or even Marcus over her, basically anyone except her or Jaha, who is as bad as Clarke.
Now I really hope Clarke kills Lexa, what a traitor bitch. I cant wait for next week and yet I dont want to watch it, Im quite scared for the sky people.
I've watched the episode again and since these writers love to F' with the fans, I suspect Lexa and/or Echo will be back to help. I can see Lexa turning on the Mountain guards and I can see an all out ground war while the rest are inside fighting. Just speculation because with these writers, we never know what's coming.
Well Lexa turned out to be who I always thought she was. She showed a small amount of emotion when she showed her feelings for Clarke but we all knew from the start that Lexa thinks feelings are weakness so for her to betray Clarke and all she has tried to do, is not surprising and then hoping that they will see each other again is typical of someone who,thinks their actions are justified and has no thought to the implications to others. It is like the "God " complex some people in authority have. Luckily it did happen because Clarke was struggling with losing her humanity around Lexa. Clarke has turnd hard with circumstances on the ground but she always had that human spark to be included in her decision making. Now she can get back to being who Clarke really is, in time to save the people on the inside and it looks like her mother.
I think the help from an unexpected source will be the old president, can't remember his name now. I think he really doesn't like what has happened or how his son has done things. I don't think he ever really wanted to kill another group of people to survive.
I saw it in the extended promo thank god! Of course I don't want him there... But having everyone be there is going to make for an amazing episode & one pissed off Clarke
Oh I agree with you on that point. Sometimes I hope that Abby would just slap her for what she is doing. Still I have to get used to seeing a child leading adults...especially after last nights episode which was great but still there are some things that irritate me...
I'm intrigued to find out about the City of Lights, it's just the path to it has taken too long because that meant I had to listen to the Almighty Jaha for that length of time. Murphy was the only saving grace during those scenes. I used to want him to suffer a terrible fate after S1 but now I kinda like that he's the comedic relief.
Yeah, I was one of those who took to Lexa quickly and loved her development. Although I never considered myself a shipper (of any kind), I did enjoy their chemistry and the build-up to their shared kiss. So, seeing Lexa turn so quickly on her compadre was not only surprising but definitely OOC based on the previous episodes depicting her thirst for blood. It also made the ending fall flat, which was disappointing. TBH, I don't know how the writers could realistically bring her back to "save Clarke" after taking the easy way out with her betrayal.
As for sticking with the show after the finale? I honestly don't know. I have never been a fan of what I feel are superfluous twists that serve more for shock value than advancing a story. The same is happening with The Walking Dead and what they're teasing for its S5 finale. But who knows, maybe the writers/show runner will have some kind of redemption with episode 16 to keep my interest but I'm holding my breath because I reall am that deçue.
The closest city to Washington DC that ends in "polis" is Annapoils, Maryland, which is only 32 miles away (roughly) and happens to be on the water. According to Google, it would take less than 11 hours to walk to it from Tonn DC. How long have Jaha and Murphy been traveling to reach the City of Lights?
Actually, the reason I feel it's OCC is because Lexa and her clan are savages who never shy away from bloodshed or exacting revenge. So, the fact she gave up so easily and made the deal seemed out of character, unless she makes plans to go back on the deal and kidnap and torture the MM once they're on the ground. I liked Lexa and her chemistry with Clarke but I don't ship for anyone.
Although I do like Clarke, I agree that she's pretty demanding and at times rude when giving out orders but that could also be attributed to her youthful inexperience * survival at all cost mentality.
Actually, Kim Shumway wrote on her tumblr recently that Jason said he wouldn't change what he wanted to do for S2 and that they should plan and write like they already had a S3 renewal so nothing has been changed. THIS IS THE PLAN.
Yeah, I think it'll be Abby too. Kane? What about Raven? She had surgery, was cut numerous times by the grounders (and barely any scars are visible), and just hours after that she was walking just fine, I would be in a lot of pain, maybe she's super strong, I don't know.
I seriously hope Lexa accepting the deal is all part of a bigger plan. Dissolving the alliance in front of the Mountain Men to make them think they aren't working together anymore, only to strike back when they least expect it because if it isn't, then Lexa isn't as great as a leader as I thought she was.
She might have saved her people for now but what does she plan on doing once the Mountain Men recover and become even more of a threat by being able to go above ground? And now she has made an enemy out of the Sky People as well.
Lexa's short-sighted decision needs to be part of something bigger. After all the "Blood must have blood" chanting, I refuse to believe that she would let them live and get away that easily.
This is, what bugs me: Everybody says Lexa did what she had to to safe her people, because her people come first, and she saw it as the best way to save her people without any more dying..... BUT: I don´t think, with an army THAT big, that there would be a lot more dying. Because:
1. the acid fog is down.
2. they have a big ass army outside and inside the mountain.
3. the Mountain Prince can´t use the missiles because... obviously :-)
4. the Reapers are taken care of
5. There can´t be so many soldiers left inside Mount Weather... 380+ people life inside. Lets say 100 of them are soldiers. (With is a HUGE number for a population of 380 people, and The100 have already reduced that number) that would mean 100 against 1000 Grounders on the outside, 200 on the inside, the rest of The100, and also 50(?) Arc guards... these are pretty good odds!
And I also don´t get why our super bloodthirsty, "attack first ask questions later" Grounders are not interested in revenge. 97 years of death, slavery and torture... and they just don´t care??? Because a few more could die? I mean they let 250 in TonDC die ... so that 200(?) other people could life...? Really??? That is pretty shitty math. And Lexa... the smart, super ruthless warrior queen doesn't care that after the 44 are dead, the evil Mountain Man can actually leave the Mountain... their ONE weakness that kept them in check?? I mean isn't she concerned????? I would be...
I think Clarke has become this much of a leader just because the grounders kind of "chose" her. I believe Abby is still the leader for the Arc people and Bellamy is still the leader for what's left of the 100.
insensitive jerk? In what way? In the beginning of the episode, he wasn't in a joking mood because he was hurt from Raven rejecting him in the previous episode. Then they both kind of admitted their feelings for one another after the blast "Don't leave me" "Not a chance"
Being rejected by her doesn't mean she has to give her a hard time about it. His comment "They can't leave you if you push them away first, right?" was just awful considering how the last person Raven loved died. Wick should have just backed off and let her be instead of reprimanding her for not being ready to commit to a relationship yet.
I have no idea. I get the feeling she might be one of those characters we will only learn more about next season. Like Harper and Miller who were around in season 1 just long enough to make their existence known, but then had much bigger roles in season 2
Lexa didn't start out meaning to betray anyone. The Mountaineers only came up with the deal right then and she took the deal after she made the invitation. Also, look up "sociopathic" because it doesn't mean what you think it means.
Well, all's fair in love and war. The Ark people only offered to help the Grounders because they wanted to use them as a Trojan Horse army, and they only offered to cure the Reapers because they were trying to stop the Grounders from attacking. It wasn't exactly out of the goodness of their hearts, which is the great thing about the show: no good guys.
NOTE: Name-calling, personal attacks, spamming, excessive self-promotion, condescending pomposity, general assiness, racism, sexism, any-other-ism, homophobia, acrophobia, and destructive (versus constructive) criticism will get you BANNED from the party.
Wow! What an episode! That Twist! Lexa, I should have known better but I guess her “head” wins more battles than leading with her “heart”.
ReplyDeleteOctavia realising she has no home broke my heart, her dedication to her brother is brilliant, “I won’t leave my brother”, Indra, “You are no longer my second.”
The Grounders trying to open the Door to Mount Weather is reminiscent to me of The White Walkers trying to get past the Wall on Game of Thrones :)
Cannot wait for Part 2!!
Are the writers insane? Lexa's mindfrack just ruined the whole show for me. I don't know if I even want to see the last ep now. All that build up for nothing.
ReplyDeleteI DID NOT EXPECT THAT. Grounders are the worst. YES YOU TOO LEXA.I was rooting for you. GRRRR....Clarke and Co are gonna have such a hard time now.
ReplyDeleteI truly laughed so hard at that "betrayal." If you didn't see something along those lines coming from her, you haven't been paying attention to her dialogue.
ReplyDeleteRaven/Wick/Octavia are the MVP's for me. Bellamy was great again and I just can't say enough how much I love Ray Barry as Dante.
That end scene with Clarke was ominous and I loved it. Next week is going to be a nail biter for sure. I'm worried about my favorites coming out of this alive.
That was a great episode. Saw Lexa coming a mile away but was really surprised about Dante! Maya's scene was sad. Can't wait for next week!
ReplyDeleteOctavia really was heartbreaking in that scene.
ReplyDeleteApparently they confirmed a fan favourite will die... I have no idea who but I'm not looking forward to finding out! :(
ReplyDeleteWhat...an...episode....
ReplyDeleteThank god I'm not a shipper and wasn't into the "Clexa" thing, because I really hate Lexa right now. She may had her reasons, but I don't like her anymore.
Poor Lincoln, still wanted to help, he'll have to decide, just like Octavia, which side do they belong.
I can't wait for the finale, I wish it was on right now!
I'm thinking Abby or Kane, maybe Raven? (I hope none of them).
ReplyDeleteUgh, I hope none but least of all Raven - she has been through so much and her strength going forward with her disability has been so great to watch
ReplyDeleteI know, and it worries me. I love all of the main characters but there are 6 that will make me mad enough to curse if they die. Raven/Octavia/Bellamy/Lincoln/Kane/Wick
ReplyDeleteLincoln is going to go apeshickt crazy next week when he realizes Octavia is still in the Mountain and I hope he punches Lexa right in her face.
ReplyDeleteHoly shit, Lexa did Clarke SO dirty. She threw her to the side of the curb like she was a piece of meat. Damn, should have seen that twist coming with the way she has been this whole time. Guess that's the Grounders for you, they only care about themselves. Wow. I need a minute.
ReplyDeleteYES!!! If not Lincoln, anyone, but that HAS to happen.
ReplyDeleteAs much as I didn't trust her, I trust the writers to throw another twist out there. I wouldn't be surprised to see her come back, showing weakness, when it's too late. I doubt it but I won't be surprised.
ReplyDeleteAmazing episode soon as I start to like Lexa she pull this wow at Octavia realize she has no home and saying I won't leave my brother and at the end with Clarke saying " it can't be over" I'm just saying all my favorites better come out alive next week Clarke Bellamy Raven Abby Octavia Jasper Monty

ReplyDeleteGreat episode, but I could barely see what was going on! It was all at night and in the dark!
ReplyDeleteSo awesome!!! I really enjoyed Lexa's character when she was introduced. Then the writers had her spouting annoying leadership quotes & falling for Clarke.

But okay the explosions & death & betrayal are awesome too. I'm also actually so impressed with the show.

There's nothing redundant at all from this part one&i'm assuming part two.. to the type of battle from last season so all the props to the writers... they really know what they are doing.

Also the writers might attempt to have Lincoln convince Lexa Indra & co to return back but I just hope that doesn't happen because it kinda negates the badass plot twist from tonight. Let the kids finish this!!
ReplyDeleteAmazeballs! Not going to say I told you so, but never did like Lexa. I knew there was a reason. The Blake siblings are the best. Octavia, you're home is where your heart is. Dante, you disappoint me...Maya's dad...NOOOOO! Watch out for a majorly pissed off Clarke, Mt Weather and Grounders!!
ReplyDeleteI wondered why it never occured to the grounders to trade the sky people for theirs, but Ias counting on years of animosity and bloodshed to keep them from betraying the alliance. I guess Clarke's speech about rescue being the priority made an impact. Now I want that bitch Lexa to die. If Clarke manages to find volunteers among the people that would give bone marrow to the children, the mountain survivors would be eternally grateful for finally being allowed to the ground and having their lives spared. that would be a smart move.
ReplyDeleteWow. That was an awesome twist. Lexa did indeed make decisions with her head. Poor Clarke. That Octavia/Indra scene broke my heart for Octavia when she said "I have no home". Blake siblings are the best.
ReplyDeleteI am so disappointed in Dante and Lexa. But I am not surprised. Both of them are looking out for their own people. But ouch!!
This season has been about maim Raven all the time. Poor girl is always injured one way or other.
So this season finale also our kids are going to stand against people who wants to kill them without any help from anyone. Now they have to even save their parents. I can't wait for all 40+ of them and the parents to be together.
are any of them fan favorites?
ReplyDeleteDo you remember when Raven punched Baird right when they learned the grounders wanted to sacrifice Finn? How incredibly satisfying that was? And Dr. Tsing's Death! Ooooh, that was true justice! I can't wait for Lexa's Karma to kick her ass!
ReplyDeleteThat was such a fantastic episode, can't wait to see next weeks.
ReplyDeleteRaven and Kane definitely. Abby not so sure. All I know is that I'll be mad if they kill precious angel Monty.
ReplyDeleteThat is some effed up sh*t! All I can say is that I felt the betrayal too when it happened. I did NOT expect that turn of event. I'm so mad right now, I don't even care that it's just a TV show! lol
ReplyDeleteNo other twist can undo the fuckery that Lexa just doled out. If this was the show's way to ensure no fan would care if Alycia Debnam-Carey left after the finale, I'd say they did their job with me.
ReplyDeleteWTF?!? I'm so disappointed in you, Lexa. That's weak.
ReplyDeleteI hear ya. I'm still mad the writers did that with Lexa...she was fast becoming one of my favorites. I'm so disappointed that I don't know if I can or will care to watch next week.
ReplyDeleteThe thing is, when they wrote that ep, I don't think they knew at that time that we would get another season. So to me, it looks like the ultimate fan screwing. I kept waiting for there to be some sign that Lexa had something else going, but I don't know.
ReplyDeleteAfter this episode, I'm hoping it's Lexa. Buh-bye.
ReplyDeleteWhat did we expect, Lexa is a lying b...ch!!!! Wonder what Clarke will do now to get inside!!!!!
ReplyDeleteClarke would have never taken the deal. She doesn't do betrayal. So basically, Clarke killed Finn for nothing in the end. The only way
ReplyDeletethe show will have any redeeming value for me in next week's finale finale is
if Lexa and the Grounders get their comeuppance in a viscous
ruthless way. Also, I hope the show spends all of next week in the mountain, but you know that's not going to happen and we'll be stuck suffering through more of Moses, I mean Jaha, crap looking for the damn City of Lights. I'm over that storyline.
HOLY GOD I LOVE THIS SHOW SO FREAKIN' MUCH
ReplyDeleteThat Twist, was a cop out... The writers couldn't kill every god dam one
ReplyDeleteof the guards... and then leave the ground with no enemies next season
with only Grounders and Sky people.
But at least this way it
will be back to our main group Clarke, Bellamy, Octavia, and the other
44 to save the day. If Wallace and his son don't get killed next episode
I will be severely Pissed if there isn't a good explanation why they
and all they don't die.
One can hope Lexa alone comes back to help, but who knows.
Btw she talked about another place, the capital, calling it Polis, a guy or Minneapolis?
Some of the shit the writers in this show write is like OUAT's Regina's
ReplyDeleteApples, looks good on the outside but there is something bad beneath the
surface.
- I eat the these apple at least 3 times this season.
I can't see anyway Lexa comes back to help. How could anyone after that level of betrayal? What I found interesting is how all the Arkers just walked away without any effing protest or what have you? Sheesh. No wonder Clarke's in charge. She's the only one with the resolve and determination to get the job done no matter what low-blow, back-stabbing, heinously-duplicitous obstacle is thrown her way.
ReplyDeleteThings I want to see next week:
1) Clarke kick serious ass as she exercises revenge while freeing her people
2) Bellamy exercising revenge while he helps Clarke free their people
3) Cage dead and done in a horrible way to wipe that damn smug look off his repugnant face
4) Dante maimed, humiliated or something equivalent
5) Lexa betrayed by her own people but ultimately dead and gone
6) Jaha not in the episode at all (this is a total long shot, I know)
Is that so much to ask? :)
I want all that too.
ReplyDeleteBut we are getting Jaha.
And we don't who will be Clarke's Help from an Unexpected Source.
Knowing the writers its the (that's not unexpected obvious help (applies to 3ppl), or another morale change help, or another twist help).Or maybe its some one unexpected lol?
I just want some god damn justice and revenge above all else.
I bet Clarke's help from an unexpected source is Dante. I thought that even before seeing tonight's episode.
ReplyDeletelol that my "another morale change help"
ReplyDeleteIm kind of over mount weather and hope they dont extend the storyline till season 3.
ReplyDeleteI don't know why but people calling Lexa's actions OOC really annoys me.
ReplyDeleteYes, she likes Clarke but her loyalty has always been to her people first. She was the one who taught Clarke that love is weakness, that the dead are gone and the living are hungry. Just because she's known this girl for maybe two weeks doesn't mean her whole philosophy has been turned on its head. There's the difference between Clarke and Lexa: one thinks with the heart, the other with the head. They have learned from each other but are still different people in that aspect.
Can her "peace" with Mt Weather backfire? Sure. But for now her army's back and she kept the casualties on her side to a minimum. That's all that ever mattered to Lexa, maybe not as a person but definitely as the Commander of her people.
That twist! Dude! Lexa is such a great character! The betrayel of CLarke and the alliance hurts like hell, but Lexa taking that offer is understandable. She did what she had to to save her people. If they would have fought in the battle, she would have lost a ton of them. She even risked never being with Clarke for it, to save her people.
ReplyDeleteClarke made me tear up, she was so hurt. It was so sad, but this will make her stronger than ever. She will save her people!
Awww Alycia is the best <3
ReplyDeleteWe definitely should have seen this coming, they have been hinting at this the whole damn time. God, I love this show: https://twitter.com/marakushah/status/573374398050271232
ReplyDeleteWhile Jaha's moses complex is annoying I get why he is like that haha and I enjoy the City of Light storyline mainly because its opening up the world & I'm sure the whole gang will end up there eventually. There's a lot of potential depending on how many seasons the show is renewed for. I also agree Clarke wouldn't have taken the deal but that's not to say she didn't understand where Lexa was coming from. I also want death haha I don't really care who dies from any of the recurring characters (Dante Cage Indra Lexa) but there definitely needs to be some death. I know lots of people enjoy Lexa's character & I do at times but I always thought her death would be good conflict for the sky people in regards to all the other clans.. But now with this betrayal I wouldn't necessarily find the alliance still in tact anyways lol so I don't how or if the writers are going to kill Lexa off. Seems to me she'll either come back for Clarke & attempt to redeem herself which I'll be really pissed about cause Clarke isn't just going to forgive her on a personal level because she understands leadership OR we'll be told Lexa has gone back to the capitol or whatever which is kind of cheap I'd rather just have a good ol fashioned death haha. But I'm definitely sticking with it.. you should too!
ReplyDeleteSo... Lexa played Clark in every aspect? Her "feelings" for her are not real? I can not tell you how incredible sad that makes me!
ReplyDelete"And Clarke just got an official invitation…" --> what does this mean???
ReplyDeleteI feel the same!
ReplyDeleteWe might get to see Polis next season, it might be an invitation only type area. I think it also hints that Lexa might appear next season since shes the one who gave her the invitation but you never know :) Only time will tell.
ReplyDeleteI want Clarke to really, really hurt Lexa! Make her regret her betrayal it in a big way. Karma is a Bitch and she deserves what is coming for her.
ReplyDeleteI feel exactly the same!!! It feels like my best friend just threw me under the bus!!!
ReplyDeleteThey won't.
ReplyDeleteLexa gave Clarke an invitation??? What? When? How? I totally must have missed that scene!
ReplyDeleteYeah :) It was a brief scene before they were about to drill into the door to Mount Weather. Lexa asked Clarke what she was going to do after the war was over and she said nothing and so Lexa said she should come with her to Polis and told her it was the Grounder Capitol. Hope that helps :)
ReplyDeleteIf you look at the promo, then yes, Kane is among those captured. Just like Abby.
ReplyDeleteAbby Kane and Raven are too obvious
ReplyDeleteI think Jaha will die. and maybe sacrifice himself for Murphy
Jaha is a fan favourite? Don't think so.
ReplyDeletenot this season. but last season people adored him
ReplyDeleteThere will be a battle next week, I'm sure of it.
ReplyDeleteI hope you're right. I just keep picturing what would have happened if the show wasn't renewed and they ended the entire series with Clarke standing at the door to the mountain. They really could have done that and skipped part two. I would have freaked out.
ReplyDeleteThat would have been awful. I'm so glad this show has been renewed.
ReplyDeleteAll in all, I think it would have been better if they just had the two hours on one night. Some fans are, understandably, freaking out now and so mad at the show/writers/Lexa/Dante/Cage while they haven't even seen part two yet. It would be anti-climatic if there was no battle yet, and I'm sure there will be something in part two. The question is if these mad fans will stick around to watch it. Perhaps Lexa's betrayal is not what it seems and is explained in part two. I have no idea. I understand your frustration but it would be a shame if you missed the finale because of this.
Also, if you look at last year's finale, the real battle didn't begin until part two. I expect something similar this season.
No, I think they were real, but Lexa got her answer, Clarke has no plans for them after the war! so Lexa made a choice of not losing men just to be in Clarke's good graces! smart move I say.
ReplyDeleteOh... Thank you! Bathroom breaks are the worst ;-) But it also makes no sense whatsoever. Why ask her something like that, when she knows she is only seconds away from betraying her?! I mean that is not only ice cold... it is borderline sociopathic.
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry because I liked Lexa, a lot! And maybe I can uderstand why she did it... But NO! Now Raven will be tortured for the 1538322432 time and Clarke killed Finn for nothing! I will never forgive her. But this is my opinion...
ReplyDeleteBtw the Blake siblings are the best, and I'm so happy everyone will be reunited next week! Great episode!
ReplyDeleteI'll watch it just to see what happens, but I'm not a happy camper right now. They need to turn this around.
ReplyDeleteYour welcome :) I know, I hate missing things. Maybe Lexa agreeing to those terms was a 'in the moment' type situation? We shall find out soon.
ReplyDeleteI think some people can't see past their ship preferences and don't realize Lexa has been playing Clarke all this time. Love is weakness remember?
ReplyDeleteThe only people saying she's OOC are bitter Clexa shippers.
ReplyDeleteI think it might be Wick or Raven. Or Lincoln! who knows what will happen to him now? I'm hoping the grounder Bellamy allied himself with in the mountain will jump on Lincoln's "Sky People should be save"-train
ReplyDeleteMinneapolis = snow people :)
ReplyDeleteI'M FREAKING OUT!!!!!! OH MY GOD!
ReplyDeleteI seriously can't believe the show pulled a twist like this! This is so unpredictable!
I love this show, but I'm seriously freaking out!
It looks like Abby...Kane would be too obvious. Raven maybe.
ReplyDeleteI am just wondering shouldn't kane be unconscious? I mean he didn't look that good in the last episode he was in. And just a few days later he is fine?
He really forgot to type in the numbers :)
I guess its too far to make it the polis she was talking about...
ReplyDeletecan anybody explain: how those guards with guns get out of Mount Weather (those who made the deal with lexa) if the dam, the tunnels, and the door were all guarded by the army of the grounders? Is there another way out?
ReplyDeleteI'm only a so-so watcher of The 100. I usually record it and watch it later but I ended up actually watching it last night and I think I figured out why I've never really gotten into the show. Other than being bossy and having a big-mouth can someone who really likes the show explain to me why Clarke is the leader. She really isn't very good at it. I just assume that all of her plans will fail and they'll end up worse than they were. I wasn't surprised at all that Lexa sold her out. I'd chose Octavia or Bellamy or even Marcus over her, basically anyone except her or Jaha, who is as bad as Clarke.
ReplyDeleteI don't get why people are so disappointed with this episode. this show doesn't do happy endings and we all knew it.
ReplyDeleteNow I really hope Clarke kills Lexa, what a traitor bitch. I cant wait for next week and yet I dont want to watch it, Im quite scared for the sky people.
ReplyDeleteI've watched the episode again and since these writers love to F' with the fans, I suspect Lexa and/or Echo will be back to help. I can see Lexa turning on the Mountain guards and I can see an all out ground war while the rest are inside fighting. Just speculation because with these writers, we never know what's coming.
ReplyDeleteWell Lexa turned out to be who I always thought she was. She showed a small amount of emotion when she showed her feelings for Clarke but we all knew from the start that Lexa thinks feelings are weakness so for her to betray Clarke and all she has tried to do, is not surprising and then hoping that they will see each other again is typical of someone who,thinks their actions are justified and has no thought to the implications to others. It is like the "God " complex some people in authority have. Luckily it did happen because Clarke was struggling with losing her humanity around Lexa. Clarke has turnd hard with circumstances on the ground but she always had that human spark to be included in her decision making. Now she can get back to being who Clarke really is, in time to save the people on the inside and it looks like her mother.
ReplyDeleteI think the help from an unexpected source will be the old president, can't remember his name now. I think he really doesn't like what has happened or how his son has done things. I don't think he ever really wanted to kill another group of people to survive.
ReplyDeleteI saw it in the extended promo thank god! Of course I don't want him there... But having everyone be there is going to make for an amazing episode & one pissed off Clarke
ReplyDeleteYeh that's one of the main problem. I read that in comicon NYC they screened season 2 premiere and the audience booed when Clarke came on screen.
ReplyDeleteShe's not my favorite, but she became more tolerable in S2 when the mary sue attitude died off after her first kill.
I like it when characters do questionable things and it doesn't take away from my enjoyment and appreciation for the show.
I hope so! Time to move on.
ReplyDeleteIt would be great if they resolved quickly and move on to the next big bad, or move to the city of life or... both.
Oh I agree with you on that point. Sometimes I hope that Abby would just slap her for what she is doing. Still I have to get used to seeing a child leading adults...especially after last nights episode which was great but still there are some things that irritate me...
ReplyDeletedear god, that was the betrayal of the year!!!
ReplyDeleteOoh, that'd be the best case scenario. Get rid of the holy-roller so we don't have to suffer through his pedantic arrogance in S3.
ReplyDeleteI'm intrigued to find out about the City of Lights, it's just the path to it has taken too long because that meant I had to listen to the Almighty Jaha for that length of time. Murphy was the only saving grace during those scenes. I used to want him to suffer a terrible fate after S1 but now I kinda like that he's the comedic relief.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I was one of those who took to Lexa quickly and loved her development. Although I never considered myself a shipper (of any kind), I did enjoy their chemistry and the build-up to their shared kiss. So, seeing Lexa turn so quickly on her compadre was not only surprising but definitely OOC based on the previous episodes depicting her thirst for blood. It also made the ending fall flat, which was disappointing. TBH, I don't know how the writers could realistically bring her back to "save Clarke" after taking the easy way out with her betrayal.
As for sticking with the show after the finale? I honestly don't know. I have never been a fan of what I feel are superfluous twists that serve more for shock value than advancing a story. The same is happening with The Walking Dead and what they're teasing for its S5 finale. But who knows, maybe the writers/show runner will have some kind of redemption with episode 16 to keep my interest but I'm holding my breath because I reall am that deçue.
Clarke is in her best form when she's pissed off.
ReplyDeleteThat's Dante (Wallace), Cage's dad.
ReplyDeleteThe closest city to Washington DC that ends in "polis" is Annapoils, Maryland, which is only 32 miles away (roughly) and happens to be on the water. According to Google, it would take less than 11 hours to walk to it from Tonn DC. How long have Jaha and Murphy been traveling to reach the City of Lights?
ReplyDeleteActually, the reason I feel it's OCC is because Lexa and her clan are savages who never shy away from bloodshed or exacting revenge. So, the fact she gave up so easily and made the deal seemed out of character, unless she makes plans to go back on the deal and kidnap and torture the MM once they're on the ground. I liked Lexa and her chemistry with Clarke but I don't ship for anyone.
ReplyDeleteI would have preferred Lexa die since I was preparing for that. :)
ReplyDeleteAlthough I do like Clarke, I agree that she's pretty demanding and at times rude when giving out orders but that could also be attributed to her youthful inexperience * survival at all cost mentality.
ReplyDeleteActually, Kim Shumway wrote on her tumblr recently that Jason said he wouldn't change what he wanted to do for S2 and that they should plan and write like they already had a S3 renewal so nothing has been changed. THIS IS THE PLAN.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I think it'll be Abby too.
ReplyDeleteKane? What about Raven? She had surgery, was cut numerous times by the grounders (and barely any scars are visible), and just hours after that she was walking just fine, I would be in a lot of pain, maybe she's super strong, I don't know.
I seriously hope Lexa accepting the deal is all part of a bigger plan. Dissolving the alliance in front of the Mountain Men to make them think they aren't working together anymore, only to strike back when they least expect it because if it isn't, then Lexa isn't as great as a leader as I thought she was.
ReplyDeleteShe might have saved her people for now but what does she plan on doing once the Mountain Men recover and become even more of a threat by being able to go above ground? And now she has made an enemy out of the Sky People as well.
Lexa's short-sighted decision needs to be part of something bigger. After all the "Blood must have blood" chanting, I refuse to believe that she would let them live and get away that easily.
Jaha is only like that because the writers want Jaha to lead something.
ReplyDeleteStupid question, but can anyone tell me the name of the girl who accompanied Clarke in this episode? The one who brought them Raven's bomb?
ReplyDeleteThe show is fantastic, wow. Great twist a excellent way to end a episode, this season two is incredible so far, can't wait for the season finale.
ReplyDeleteThis is, what bugs me: Everybody says Lexa did what she had to to safe her people, because her people come first, and she saw it as the best way to save her people without any more dying..... BUT: I don´t think, with an army THAT big, that there would be a lot more dying. Because:
ReplyDelete1. the acid fog is down.
2. they have a big ass army outside and inside the mountain.
3. the Mountain Prince can´t use the missiles because... obviously :-)
4. the Reapers are taken care of
5. There can´t be so many soldiers left inside Mount Weather... 380+ people life inside. Lets say 100 of them are soldiers. (With is a HUGE number for a population of 380 people, and The100 have already reduced that number) that would mean 100 against 1000 Grounders on the outside, 200 on the inside, the rest of The100, and also 50(?) Arc guards... these are pretty good odds!
And I also don´t get why our super bloodthirsty, "attack first ask questions later" Grounders are not interested in revenge. 97 years of death, slavery and torture... and they just don´t care??? Because a few more could die? I mean they let 250 in TonDC die ... so that 200(?) other people could life...? Really??? That is pretty shitty math. And Lexa... the smart, super ruthless warrior queen doesn't care that after the 44 are dead, the evil Mountain Man can actually leave the Mountain... their ONE weakness that kept them in check?? I mean isn't she concerned????? I would be...
I think they were already out. Probably they just kept patrols out there at all times just in case.
ReplyDeleteI think Clarke has become this much of a leader just because the grounders kind of "chose" her. I believe Abby is still the leader for the Arc people and Bellamy is still the leader for what's left of the 100.
ReplyDeleteThanks. I totally gapped on his name! I was still reeling from what Lexa did!
ReplyDeleteI was over the City of Lights storyline weeks ago. What a waste of screen time.
ReplyDeleteWas it Monroe? I need to rewatch it though.
ReplyDeleteinsensitive jerk? In what way?
ReplyDeleteIn the beginning of the episode, he wasn't in a joking mood because he was hurt from Raven rejecting him in the previous episode. Then they both kind of admitted their feelings for one another after the blast "Don't leave me" "Not a chance"
Being rejected by her doesn't mean she has to give her a hard time about it. His comment "They can't leave you if you push them away first, right?" was just awful considering how the last person Raven loved died. Wick should have just backed off and let her be instead of reprimanding her for not being ready to commit to a relationship yet.
ReplyDeleteHer name is Monroe.
ReplyDeleteLexa, how dare you?!?!?! Maybe it'll all make sense next week, but right now... no!
ReplyDeleteBut Echo isn't listed for the next episode, is she?
ReplyDeletenoooooooo..where did you hear it was a fan favourite?
ReplyDeleteI have no idea. I get the feeling she might be one of those characters we will only learn more about next season. Like Harper and Miller who were around in season 1 just long enough to make their existence known, but then had much bigger roles in season 2
ReplyDeleteLexa didn't start out meaning to betray anyone. The Mountaineers only came up with the deal right then and she took the deal after she made the invitation.
ReplyDeleteAlso, look up "sociopathic" because it doesn't mean what you think it means.
Well, all's fair in love and war. The Ark people only offered to help the Grounders because they wanted to use them as a Trojan Horse army, and they only offered to cure the Reapers because they were trying to stop the Grounders from attacking. It wasn't exactly out of the goodness of their hearts, which is the great thing about the show: no good guys.
ReplyDeleteRemember there's at least one other small door. It was shown when they basically killed one of their own mountain girls to test the blood
ReplyDeleteHer point was she had no plans of any kind beyond this day,
ReplyDelete
