The Expanse S03E10 Reaction FULL

Comments

Unbeheld

Hi, you two great react as always. Hope you plan on watching the last 3 in a row because it's going to be a wild ride. Just would like to point out the term "accidental gun discharge" is the official euphemism being employed in some military to deal with suicide. As the regulations doesn't officially allow the family of the soldier to be compensated or receive benefits from PTSD suicides, they use this expression to bypass those rules to make sure their families are taken care of.

T. Arnold Ferguson

Yup! Definitely a wild ride from now on. As far as Holden's "vision" is concerned, we all felt confused at this point. Some clarification will come.

She went to talk to Clarissa alone because she just thought she was hiding and on the run.

Yes, much clarity will be had, keep watching!

Small request, the show audio is slightly low so I wind up having to turn it way up to enjoy with you but it makes your voices super loud. Kat, you are very perceptive, (takes one to know one in watchmen, the suicide in this episode I think you knew what was coming a bit in advance!) I am excited to see how your feelings about multiple characters change over this and next season.

As a biologist, Kat, I think you'll find some interesting things in S4. I think the station was using the Martian commander to fill the pot hole that his grenade created. Ashford is a very complicated character like Errinwright was. Both characters are much improved from the books, imo.

Yeah, both are better in the show, Ashford is actually an amalgam of multiple book characters and some of the shows changes are good. The only show change I dislike is how belters look like us, in the books they are all tall and skinny like the dude in the bar in season 1 and they are very much reviled in a racist kind of way for not looking human.

The nucleus realized that even a lobbed grenade could damage it, and so it decelerated everything moving as fast as a lobbed grenade, however, it only stopped the ships (the shells) and not the contents.

Yeah, the limitations of casting. I think Naomi is pushing 7 ft tall in the book.

The little comment about Monkeys and Microwaves is a nod to one of my favourite lines from the books... Holden was starting to feel like they were all monkeys playing with a microwave. Push a button, a light comes on inside, so it’s a light. Push a different button and stick your hand inside, it burns you, so it’s a weapon. Learn to open and close the door, it’s a place to hide things. Never grasping what it actually did, and maybe not even having the framework necessary to figure it out. No monkey ever reheated a frozen burrito.

Love the longer discussion at the end guys! Always interested in hearing your thoughts on this amazing show. No spoilers.. but I will say that you are both very perceptive when it comes to figuring out Holden's vision at the end.

Great reaction, as usual. Kat's cell analogy was damned good; I don't think that any other reactor made that illustration. Always trust this show...characters like Ashford will reveal their full motivations in due time. At the beginning of the episode Anna, Tilly and the scientist guy were talking about inertia and Tilly tried to make a joke about "bodies in motion". Whenever this show inserts a "science lesson" into the dialog, it's always for a reason. Any guesses why they included that particular lesson in this episode, considering the events that unfolded?

This episode, is quite frankly, the centerpiece of interaction between an advanced protomolecule and us. It is not that it has any good, or bad, intentions. We are ants, and immaterial. I loved your reactions, but mostly, the discussion. You both seemed to recognize all the moral, philosophical, and realistic dilemmas. Holden faces the realistic problems, with Miller, as to what is real, what is reality. Anna touches on the relationships of philosophical, through spiritual means (and although it kills me as an atheist to admit, they do cross paths). Everyone else contends with the morality of what they are doing. I think this episode is really about, a dandelion sky, symbolically. A dandelion is something that carries future hopes on the wind, in a myriad of directions, and will implant anywhere. Loved it, you two.

Hah. Clearly the ending right? I am not a native, so sometimes few details go over my head because of the language barrier. This inertia thing is definitely one of those. Kat

I have a tee shirt with Monkeys and Microwaves over a scene from 2001 of the apes reaching out to the monolith. I loved the "Calculus - amoeba, monkey - Mozart" scene.

I agree with Patrick. This episode is where an alien civilization makes "contact" with humans in positive and negative ways. It is like trying to learn a language with no real clues as to syntax and even how the language is expressed! And the universal model of the cell is exactly how I interpreted it as well (being a cell biologist, I could hardly help it!) so I loved Kat's description of the nucleus and the cell membrane with its pores allowing communication with the outside world around it! The nucleus is described like a library I believe, cataloging information about the previous civilization. Now only Miller remains to "reach out" as it were, to try and figure out what happened so long ago to destroy the builders of the ring. It is a great show and Sonny I believe you to be correct in that the writers and show runner will keep us safe in a world we have come to love! Can't wait for you to see the whole of this season and then on to the next!!

So to continue with the Mass Effect parallels , everything about the proto molecule is actually even closer to Mass Effect: Andromeda. (its actually a pretty good game, just not as good as ME 1/2/3, but well worth playing). That also deals with an ancient galaxy spanning technology that seems to have been abandoned/shut off, and a huge part of the game involves investigating that.
