We are back with more episodes of The Expanse. Finally we come face to face with the creature made from the protomolecule. What a ride of an episode. The tables have turned and now things are going in a different direction than thought. We hope you enjoy our skit in the beginning. Next week we will be back with the season finale of season 2. We will start Season 3 on April 13th!

I like how The Expanse shows the best and worst of humanity. That scene at the docks with the Belters doing what needs to be done to save those among them is a moving example of the former.

And the same with the earther in the slums helping Bobbie orient herself, and guiding her in what is a foreign world to her. Even if it was a trade, he showed compassion and genuine empathy towards her.
You guys passed by the best scene in the episode; where Bobbie stuffs her face with cucumber sandwiches!

I loved her reaction to the cucumber sandwiches. Cucumbers must be a luxury on Mars. They take up a lot of soil and the plants don't produce a whole lot of oxygen. Food isn't really a problem on Mars, but most of the vegetables they eat have to also serve as oxygen producers. Hence why you see Bobbie eating cucumber sandwiches like crazy.
The ship that Errinwright ordered to be destroyed wasn't carrying any protomolecule. It was supposed to pick up the protomonster Hybrid from the Ganymede lab but Amos's grenade fucked that whole plan up. Now it's on the Roci.
Two really great exchanges with Errinwright/Korshunov & Bobbie/Cotyar. Errinwright: "You give a monkey a stick & inevitably it'll beat another monkey to death with it." Korshunov almost LOL'd at the Stanley Kubrick reference. I also really liked the back & forth with Bobbie & Cotyar. Cotyar: "My IQ tested too high to be a marine." Bobbie: "But your morals tested low enough to be a spy."
I've watched the "save 52" scene dozens of times now but never caught that "you're not finished yet" could be a response to the "I didn't do enough" line from earlier, awesome observation! There's something wrong with y'all not crying though, stop trying to be so tough in front of each other :P
Ah that scene got me all emotional again damn some good acting. I Love This Show!
In many ways, the greatest enemy featured on this show is human nature. Rockets, torpedoes, alien technologies-those are the things people just toss at each other to wage their wars. Even in space, people tend to be the most dangerous things. It’s such a sad theme to follow sometimes. Which is why this episode stands out to me so much. With so many people at each others’ necks, the belters, in the midst of certain death, have gone against their base interests and did their best to save as many as they can. I’ve seen some comments on other forums stating that that scene was pure fluff; unrealistic Hollywood feel-good triteness. But I don’t think it’s baseless. Humanity can be a terrible species at the best of times. But in a hostile and indifferent universe, we would never get so far if we were incapable of giving a shit about others.

Agreed. A lot of people forget about the good that humanity is capable of, because the news and media is so heavily focused towards the negatives. If something like this happens in real life, the news reports would be talking about all dead and the armies squaring off. The refugee ship that got away and the sacrifices made for that would only be known to the relatively small number that met the refugees in the future.
This is the Warship Rocinante. 😠
The Naomi / refugee scene. Wow. Hit me right in the feels
and that's how you make an impactful minor character! :'D what a legend. such an emotional scene too. the belters always knew that their existence will be tough from the get-go so they understand having to make the sacrifice for their future. total respect. meanwhile, earth and mars fucking about. oh and i love how bobbi is taking everything in :P from oceans to cucumber sandwiches! :P

At one point, were you also kinda figuring they'd open the door to see Rana and Chris playing PUBG or something? xD
I think the shared tears with Naomi and the other woman was the acknowledgement that the woman was wrong not to believe they could save all of the people and the Rocinate would rendezvous with them and be able to take on the load...tough tough scene and decisions. Well written and played out.
I’ve probably seen this show 4 times, at least. And the belter scene still makes me cry, every time. Champa (the big belters name) is the best side character
That skit at the start had me in stitches! 😂 the t rex sounds followed by overused man screaming voice from a the action films of my childhood, made my day!
That scene with the belters is the saddest scene in the entire show. Makes me cry every time I watch it.
lol the LOST monster in the Skit. Nice job
For the Record, Holden had not necessarily changed. He was freaked out by the proto molecule, and wanted it destroyed as quickly as possible, rather than risk another infection.
@spacecadet2172

realtsavo he actually risked infection by being so reckless and that’s how it got on to the roci and ended up infecting it even after they thought they had purged it all.

Yes, because Holden is an idiot sometimes. I'm not saying what he did was smart. It was an emotional response, not made with the greatest consideration.
I still cry every time I see this episode.
The addition of revving chainsaws and elephants raised the skit from good to god-tier.
I do love Rana's obsession with the designer fashion choices of the 24th Century, xD
Freakin' loved your recreation of the grenade scene, that was hilarious. A chainsaw?!
I love that speech at the end.
Speech gives me goose bumps everytime
I should've guessed after how you commented on it you would do a skit about the "GRENADE!" scene.... :D
Ok the intro bit is legitimately hilarious, well done.
LMFAO, that intro was too funny!

12:10 - Honestly, Errinwright had a bit of a point. The way the series portrays things, he's something like Chrisjen's star pupil that took her lessons to their natural conclusion, so while his methods are extreme, they still hold to the theme that Earth *must* come first. Even if it means acts of horrific genocide that might have made Genghis Khan think, "Whoa! Take a step back, brother!" (Well probably not Genghis, he was miles ahead of the curve)
Loving the reaction vids.
This and 'Doors and corners' are by far my favorite episodes. Best show on tv IMO ---- Can't wait for season 3

The Protomolecule did do something to him (Holden), think of all the people that he's lost and killed (not to mention all the death in general) that has been caused by it. Heck since S01E01 the Cant (with his girl on it) was blown up because of the Protomolecule conspiracy.

It got blown up because of errinwright and Jules Pierre Mau. The protomolecule didn’t do that it was literally PROTOGEN, mau’s company, in cahoots with errinwright

Champa is champion.
In a way, the proto-molecule did something to Holden. The conspiracy protecting and preserving it ruined his life and those of his crew starting with the destruction of the Canterbury. The proto-molecule creature is a symbol of that. Holden thinks destroying it would put an end to the nightmare.

This might be the best episode of the whole show tbh. Bobby and Christian team up begins. Errinwright flips the script on everyone. The belter refugee scene is definitely one of the best moments in the whole show on its own. And last but not least "this is the war ship Rocinante".
Is this a reupload? Love you guys! 😏
"we'll all die together"
I loved seeing Errinwright make his moves this episode. We kinda knew he was a player because we were told he was, but this was the episode where he shows it. He's doing bad things for only halfwaybdefensible reasons, but he still makes himself into a villain I love and love to hate.
Sweet skit!

We have to stay back. I don't know whether i'd have the courage. I hope i would.
You guys gotta release the finale one early! Season 3 starts soon!
Belter to the end.
that intro was gold
The a balls of Holden to threaten the Martian Fleet with just a frigate. It was really surprised that they didn't call his bluff. That like scaring off a platoon of marines with just a pistol.
Sadly just one more episode after this one. :( But luckily the third season begins soon. :)

this was my first skit and it was great and hearing the smokemonster while in on suraj's face got me bawlingHolden's in sheer panic mode the monster's bringing back his trauma from the eros protomoleculeAw love that moment with rana after Naomi's big scene!Lol "fuck it the rocinante?fuck this shit"
Big play by Eriinwright, one of my fav characters for sure
The actor who played the spy Kenzo Gabriel who sneaked aboard the Roci (Elias Toufexis) also did the "body capture" work for the Hybrid. That thing where you wear a skin tight outfit covered in ping pong balls.
our only and final warning
Lolol intro awesome
13:30, one of the most moving scenes of this show for me, the speech is so beautiful, I cry every time ... a portrayal of how our humanity can rise, so beautiful and tragic.
Belter hero, Champa is a good man.
The Expanse Season 3 will start at April, 11, 2018

Yeah that show really fucked with my feelings for Errinwright ... damn it... I'm digging those character-arcs and here they just shit on what I want to see and make him switch again? I waited for him to switch sides for so long! I somewhat still hope that he's not quite as evil, simultanously I kinda understand him and on the other hand even if it were just a 'evil' move, I love it because he just turned the whole situation around. Still, I don't get it completely. I assume he actually planned to go to prison and have Christjen take care of everything else, before he heard that she will meet Mao. So, I assume that was when he made up his plan. So we could still argue, that his scene with his son was entirely honest and he didn't know yet what he would do later. But why write that letter to his ex? (I assume Jodie was his ex-wife?) I'm really looking forward to next season!
lol intro!
that skit was funny

You need to read Tom Godwin's "The Cold Equations." Belters live (and die) by the Laws of Physics.
I really had to suspend my disbelief how Naomi's situation resolved. It was a stupid move, i guess she got really lucky.

12:49 - Errinwright really flipped the script for everyone, didn't he? I like the books, but where I have issues with a certain sword and sorcery show from book to screen, I *loved* every change they made for the show.
I tried the homework, recommended it to someone... She just watched half of the first ep and told me it was a boring piece of shit... Oh the failure 😥
😂
Obviously Chrisjen isn't going anywhere with Bobby and Cotyar as her Aces...I want to see how competent each of them are in combat...by all accounts Bobby is the prime badass of the bunch on Amos level...I CAN'T wait to see if those two meet!! Holden is in need of another wrinkle to make his emotional state make more sense...I think they under exposed the weight he feels and probably could have added a recurring nightmare of him being the cause of all this or him needing to make the hard decision to show how his psyche is under assault by guilt/responsibility to be the guy standing in the gap for humanity/the system... I think Chrisjen's next stop is to see Fred Johnson in person if she is some how pushed out from Earth for a sec...then she/Fred/Bobby/Cotyar link up with Rocinate somehow...all battling...The Protomolecule is still largely unknown by Earth and Mars...there are a handful of people dealing in it...to the degree where MCRN was sacrificing their own to test it...crazy. Naomi can do no wrong in my eyes...I just wish they didn't keep guns our of her hands...she has the best body (athletically/aesthetically) so treating her as some fragile flower with a six pack is lame...in real life she is a track athlete/dancers...wouldn't mind them showing her being a bit more dynamic...they started with that, but seem to decide to mute her physical power presence to showcase her as an independent thinker/leader...not mad Amos relationship with Naomi and his own internal struggle is interesting...I saw somewhere that he and Prax has some type of dynamic to play our too...more interested in his next evolution...
