The Expanse S02E08 'Pyre' - FULL REACTION!

Everything in this show is relevant because human history constantly repeats itself. Be prepared with tissues for the episodes AND seasons to come;)

I enjoyed Amos in the books much more than the series. He knew he was different, and really never questioned it. Amos is just Amos.

Amos didn't do it. He was battling with himself after he saw that child fighting for his mother. It brought back a lot of memories from his childhood. Ultimately he didn't choose to do it, he was looking up Lydia and he approved of Prax's reason to be with them to finding his daughter. Amos is Amos. He doesn't completely lack empathy but his childhood really messed him up and he is always just trying to find a place in this world. His empathy towards children is unparalleled, as well as towards people who care for children. And this still holds true as you will see later. We love Amos.

If you rewatch the episode when Bobbie and her team are on Ganymede, Bobbie zooms in on a child waving from an Ag Dome. Here we see the interior shot and find that it is Mei waving at Bobbie's team. The attention to detail and call backs are off the chart. Camina Drummer shot up to my No. 1 badass in this episode. Loved the shocked look on Alex's face after she pulled his gun and executed those guys and walked herself out the door. When I first saw Amos walking down the corridor messed up, I though maybe he had the magnetic treatment. He was so detached when he said he didn't want to fight Alex, not because they're friends , but there'd be no one to fly the ship. But then I realized something else was happening when he looked up Lydia in Baltimore. That kid's reaction just took him back to the trauma of his childhood, I think.

17 November, Cara Gee (Camila Drummer) will be 36! Great review as always!

Great reaction.. Very heartfelt. Loved the red herrings around Prax. Firstly Prax thinking that Holden was talking to that nurse about the spacing and that he was involved somehow, and the panic in his voice talking to Holden. Meanwhile, Holden thinking that Prax had something to do with the Protomolecule Never feel bad about your empathy. It is your empathy and sincerety of emotion that make your reactions so good. Though at this stage should learn the lesson, never go into an episode of the expanse without a some tissues there in an emergency, because chances are, its going to throw you into a loop at some stage :D Can't wait until the next few episode, they are some of my absolute favourites of the series.
