![]() I didn’t like her at first, but she grew on me in Season 5! On top of all this, Monica, the reporter, learns that the protomolocule was not destroyed in the Zmeya explosion but shot through an empty torpedo for the Martian traitors to find as payment for the ships Inaros requisitioned from them. We are led to believe that the mysterious alien entities (as yet unseen in the show) have wiped the ship from existence. Yet, as the Martians enter, they are surrounded by a red mist, much like that on the Arborghast in the Season 2 Finale. The “Once and Future Queen” Avasarala has exerted control over the system, enacting an “Emergency Power Provision” to place Earth and Mars under military control (as to be expected).Īt the same time, Inaros has taken Medina station (or at least is in league with it) and has allowed traitorous Martians (which Bobbie was investigating for Avasarala) to wreak havoc before escaping the planet Laconia through the Sol Gate. At the end of the finale, Amos convinced Holden to let Clarissa be on their crew (I’m guessing as mechanic and backup pilot). Their harrowing journey across an Earth that grew more and more post-apocalyptic (caused by Inaros’ meteor attack early in the season) was one of my favorite aspects of Season 5. Unfortunately, Alex (due to being written off the show) dies of a stroke from too much G-Force acceleration (though at least he died rescuing Naomi).Īmos and Clarissa made it to Luna after they escaped from Clarissa’s prison. Bobbie came to the rescue, pulling Naomi to safety inside the Razorback (now called the Screaming Firehawk). Unable to stop the bomb, she opened a thruster to send the ship off course, then jumped out. Meanwhile, Naomi was still trapped on the derelict Chetzamoka, which had been rigged to blow. Despite winning the fight, half of Drummer’s crew leaves her to forge their own path, unable to reconcile Drummer’s principles and devotion to her other friends. Instead, Drummer backstabbed Inaros, and her ship defended the Roci in a sweet ship battle. Marcos Inaros (the manipulative rebel leader of the Free Navy) ordered Camina Drummer, along with four other ships, to attack the Rocinante. The last episode, Nemesis Games, was killer. Usually, I’m one of “those people” who always reads the book before the show, but in this case, I’m going into it with no knowledge of the content (so if my projections are correct, it’s not because I “cheated” and read the books)! ![]() To lead us into Season 6, today I’ll be providing a short recap of where Season 5 left us and some projections. While there are far more volumes in the book series, there is a twenty-eight-year gap between book 6 ( Babylon’s Ashes) and book 7 ( Leviathan Falls), so it makes sense Amazon wouldn’t want to foray into that territory. It’s been a long year without the crew of the Rocinante, the Belters, and the Inners, but this season is set to be the most post-apocalyptically relevant season yet! Unfortunately, we’re only getting 6 episodes, and these will be the last (at least on Amazon). For those who like their post-apocalyptic more on the hard sci-fi/space opera side, you’ll be overjoyed to hear that The Expanse is returning to Amazon Prim e for Season 6 on December 10th!
