geebsTV commentary:
The 100- That was unexpected. I'll admit, I was at the edge of my seat wondering who of the good guys might die. Turns out, no one! Like I was thinking Gaia might get killed by Madi/Sheidheda, or either Emori or John would get killed by Sanctum fanatics. But turns out everything goes fine.
Well, Abby's body is dead- Clarke is forced to reveal herself when the Lightbournes try to use the mind-wiping poison on the remaining sleeping pods. And that leads to Clarke spacing all the primes except for Russell. Simone actually tried to pretend to be Abby, and thankfully Clarke did not fall for that. I mean, she deigned to hope, but she quickly determined it wasn't her mom.
Russell is pissed, and was about to kill Madi when Sheidheda cuts a deal with him. But, Clarke snaps her out of it, so Sheidheda tries to kill Madi, but Raven manages to get him out of the Flame, destroying it in the process. Wait, so what does that mean for the other commanders? When Raven was trying to explain the process she mentioned Shiedheda would be uploaded onto a different drive so he could be erased.
And it seems weird she would kill all the other commanders just to get him, and fail at that. Or was everything uploaded to the computers, with the rest of the commanders going one way, and Sheidheda separately to a different, isolated drive, but the flame itself is no longer functional?
Anyways, Shiedheda's code disappear somewhere, and I think some random things said by Russell and Gabriel set him up as the big bad next season.
So yeah, everything is good for the good guys, they manage to win with less killing than previously. Still, Jordan was worked on by the Sanctum fanatics before they rescued him, and he's not too pleased about the fact there was any death at all. So could he spell trouble for them later?
Also, during the fight, Octavia has to stop a flaming suicide lady from setting the tavern on fire, so she tackles her, setting her jacket on fire, which she removes. That's when Gabriel notices an elaborate tattoo on her back. Which matches some mysterious object under his tent that he'd been studying for the last century and a half.
Octavia's key unlocks it, and it summons Diyoza's grown up daughter, who stabs Octavia because "he" has her mother. Octavia is chill about it all, "that's fine, tell him that its done" before disintegrating into a cloud of green smoke in Bellamy's arms. Obviously, she's not dead, something weird happened.
But yeah, my theory- Gabriel talked about the object sucking in radio signals. Russell mentioned the other planets in the systems having teams who they've been unable to contact because of the anomaly, but now that they're on the ship, they could go to those planets and access those teams mind drives remotely to see if the planet is safe.
I think, when Sheidheda disappeared, he somehow got transmitted out and sucked into the object, where he caused havoc on whatever weird dimension Diyoza and Octavia went to when they disappeared, and he is the "he" Hope is talking about.
Blood and Treasure- Ah, finally, that explains it! They did the whole thing where Farouk was Reece's son last ep, but it was confusing, because earlier in the season, they tracked down Farouk because that wasn't his real name and he had a sister he visited. So that seemed inconsistent with the story about Reece's son and his mother having Mummy's disease.
But it turns out Simon is the real Farouk, having been working with fake Farouk this whole time, and letting the guy use his name as smokescreen. Plus it also explained why it seemed like they had Baltar on as a nothing side character.
