A favorite character is consumed by vengeance in one of The 100s strongest episodes.
Here’s our review…
Well,The 100definitely isnt messing around.
Back then, the ground represented a dangerous unknownwould its radiation-blasted surface nurture or kill humanitys only survivors?
This list of warring factions continues to grow, too.
And within each of these groups there is internal strife and naked grabs for power.
In other words, were no better off than we were before the bombs felland thats not very encouraging.
Now its time forspoilersas we delve into tonights episode.
There were times last season when it seemed like a reconciliation was nigh impossible.
But this was whenThe 100hadnt truly explored Clarkes true potential as a character.
That their reunion wasnt more emotional wasnt a pulled punchit merely underscored how much Clarkes priorities have changed.
Also, while mother and daughter have been reunited, Abby has to face some hard truths.
These are things that Abby has yet to truly discover about herself.
By contrast, Clarkes reunion with Bellamy is incredibly heartfelt.
This further underscores where Clarkes loyalties laywith her comrades-in-arms.
Truly, theirs was a trial by fire.
Raven sums this up nicely: the council essentially sent the 100 down to the ground to die.
We saw his descent continue with his reluctance to save a survivor from one of the crashed stations.
In that time, he became consumed with finding Clarke by any means necessary.
Gone is the compassionate diplomat he was in season one.
Now, instead of representing hope, Finn has come to symbolize moral decay.
Of course, shewasntamong friends, but Jasper doesnt know that yet.The bunker people are the ultimate pragmatists.
To them, Grounders are human and outsiders are expendable.
Dantes son says it best: Our people come first, right?
This point is driven home by Jaspers unwitting participation in some dangerous human trials.
Seriously, Jaspercannotcatch a break.
Lincoln is faring no better as the test subject of the Cerberus program.
I really hope Octavia finds him sooner rather than later.
