This week, Amos and Claire make their play to get off the planet before things take another turn for the worse, Naomi’s message has been received but how much does that actually help her, and Avasarala has to make multiple choices about the future of her career.

In this episode we finally get to see the full extent of Naomi’s predicament and how she’s going to survive it, or at least let the outside world know about it. It’s painful, difficult, and maybe doesn’t even work, but she’s doing what she can. We also get a glimpse of what Pastor’s new adminstration is going to look like, Claire’s positive influence on team Amos, and Karal’s corrosive influence on Drummer’s family.

There’s no Amos this week, but there’s still something for everyone, including great emotional turmoil as Naomi tries to figure out who her son is and how, or if, she could have made a difference in his life as well as some hot Roci action as they continue their attempt to hunt down the Zmeya. Join us for the podcast to hear our thoughts on another excellent episode of The Expanse.

It’s a slower episode this week as we set up for what’s sure to be a big finish. Amos and Claire figure out their next move while grappling with the monstrous implications of those actions, Bobbie and Alex try to survive on the float, and a tough choice is put to Drummer during her meeting with Marco.

It’s only the middle of the season and things are already looking pretty bleak. More people barely escape with their lives, while the fate of others is completely up in the air. Join us for a whole lot of Amos love, speculation about the fate of the Roci’s pilot, and a Naomi / Miller easter egg.

This episode is absolutely packed full of disasters. Seriously, there are at least four devastating crises! Bad things are happening on a system-wide scale and all of our characters are caught up in it. Join us as we discuss what the huge developments of this week’s episode might mean for the rest of the season.
