They could even do a bigger time skip. How long did they say they would have to be locked up? 5 years?Patrykhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13662838711958747484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-54397765031751970992017-05-14T16:12:03.082-04:002017-05-14T16:12:03.082-04:00I keep thinking that the entire Raven subplot is h...I keep thinking that the entire Raven subplot is heading toward a way for her to stop the Wave from space.

I'm ...Jasper dying has been a long time coming. I'm glad the writers didn't chicken out this time like they did in the Pilot/2nd episode and then in the season 3 finale because the scene was powerfull.<br /><br />Harper changed her mind but there is a problem. I doubt she will make the cut just like she didn't on Clarke's initial list. There will be more heartbreak for poor Monty soon.<br /><br />Riley was such a waste of space character... Existed just to show the futility of everything.<br /><br />Too bad Raven won't go into space, there was so much build-up to this and it looks like nothing will come of it. Even with the bunker am immunity for radiation poisoning would be invaluable for the surviving population. I would accept losing Raven for that, plus goign out on a spacewalk would be poetic because that's how she got Finn into this mess. Of course they can just harvest Clarke now.Patrykhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13662838711958747484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-15122249180913332592017-05-13T20:04:03.075-04:002017-05-13T20:04:03.075-04:00While it was nice to have the most positive outcom...While it was nice to have the most positive outcome for a change, I found the episode a bit predictable. Not once since floating her husband has Abby ever let people in power stand in the way of what she wanted to do. It was so utterly predictable that she would help Bellamy that Jaha and Clarke should have seen it coming a mile away. <br /><br />Clarke just isn't thinking clearly. Not only has she apparently forgotten who Bellamy and Abby are, her rationale doesn't hold up. Even if Luna had won, I really doubt everybody was going to just give up and die. She wandered into the contest after it was set up; nobody agreed to her terms. And if another clan wins, as she rightly points out,no one can operate the systems, so they won't be able to maintain the shelter without the help of the Arkadians. Which is why they would have been able to bargain to save at least the engineers and probably the doctors. Humanity was going to survive, no matter who won.<br /><br />In fact, Clarke made the choice that maximized the chance of getting everybody killed. By seizing the bunker and leaving everybody outside, she ran the risk of them figuring it a way to break in and making it useless. After all, they have nothing to lose.<br /><br />It's going to be tough for Raven, Monty and Harper to get into the Bunker now. The 100 will likely have already been chosen by the time they get there. I think at that point, the only way they get in is if somebody voluntarily surrenders their spot. Possibly Clarke, who's a nightblood, and might survive outside? I wonder if she can donate her bone marrow and make some more. I'm thinking Murphy and Emori will find a way to hide so their thought to be trapped outside.magrittenoreply@blogger.com
