We continue the trend of doing a deep dive into the past and the very personal stories of these characters we've grown to love so much. This season is really off to great start!
And that cliffhanger? Dammit!

Keep in mind we are celebrating the holidays and won't be home for much of next week, so our reaction to the fourth episode will be delayed until next weekend or thereabout. We will let you know!

Happy Holidays! Will you celebrate it with your family and baby Grogu ?

Was waiting for this reaction so much!!!! One thing to keep in mind. The scientist estimates a blast impact of the asteroid at 1-4 Megatons (medium sized nuke), but he was using an estimate of 30,000 KPH when it hits Earth. We know from the end of S4 that Marco is accelerating these rocks, and the Rock #9 at the beginning of E1 had an estimated impact of 21 Megatons.... which is roughly 1,000 times the impact strength of the bomb dropped on Nagasaki, and almost half the strength of the largest nuke ever detonated (Tsar Bomba, 50 MT)

Kat, the fans have been going crazy trying to figure out the end of that joke lol. Great analysis of the characters in your discussion guys. I always enjoy hearing your thoughts.

“I once took a honeycomb and a jackass into a brothel. The Madame asked, ‘What can we do for you?’” Tyrion started. “I need a woman to lay with, for mine has left me.” “Whatever for? And what’s with the honeycomb and the mule?” “My woman found a genie in a bottle and he granted her three wishes. The first was for a house fit for a queen so he gave her this damn honeycomb. The second wish was that she have the nicest ass in all the land, so he gave her this damn donkey…” “And what about the third wish?” “Well… she asked the genie to make my cock hang down past my knee.” “Well that one’s not so bad, eh?” “Not so bad?!? I used to be six foot three!!!”

There's this really good article about the complexity of Marco's character, the marxists/revolutionaries the writers were inspired by for his character. It was refreshing for me, because as a marxist, all I've heard is mostly liberals direct the show's politics, and I've always been curious about the writers' thought process behind the politics. To me, among other things, The Expanse is a look into the working class's future if the US doesn't have a revolution in the next decade. Even just in terms of global warming. https://www.google.com/amp/s/comicbook.com/tv-shows/amp/news/expanse-season-5-marco-inaros-villain-keon-alexander-james-sa-corey/

oh also, the joke... flash back to episode 1 of the entire series "Jim.....there's something you should know.." Don't count on getting the punchline if the writers have their way.

I am just guessing there is not end of the joke and it is a metaphor for all of the answers we may never get because, hey, that's life!! One of the infuriating things about The Expanse is all the dangling questions one does not get finality or closure with but again, that is true about our lives as well. I really liked in S3E13 when Amos states that "that's what dying is, leaving unfinished business" and he is exactly right.

I guess trying to turn the stealth spotters skyward would be our only hope right now. At least they are saying there is some tech to defend against the stealth rocks. Its kind of cool that Marco figured out that they cannot throw rocks coming from the direction of Mars because that is what Earth has been watching for for a long time! Details are unbelievable on this show.

I suspect it's going to be a sitatuation where Avasarala gets to say "I f**king told you so", and she gets her way from now on

I looked up the language on the beach sign at the end and it's apparently in the Xhosa language of S. Africa and Zimbabwe. Above the Earth, it looked like it was heading toward the coast of Western Europe but maybe it took a zig and a zag in the atmosphere.
