Also, I think Jason just made up the whole story about Roan being banished so the IN could join the Coalition on the fly. It makes zero sense.

First off, anyone who knows Nia (and Lexa knew exactly what kind of horrible, selfish person Nia was) would automatically know that she couldn't give a damn about her son. Lexa wanted Nia to suffer the way she had after Costia's death, right? Well, if Nia never cared all that much about her son to begin with, then why would she care if he was banished?

Secondly, Jason said that Lexa forced the IN into the Coalition. But in the recent interview (and correct me if I'm wrong), I believe that Jason said Lexa convinced Nia that it would be in her best interest to join... If Lexa forced them to join, it seems quite dumb that she would further propose that Roan be banished (they're already pissed off enough, so why would she further antagonize them?). If the IN wanted to join the Coalition, then I can understand why Lexa would request Roan be banished. Which is it? Were they forced or did they actually think it would be a good idea (at least temporarily)?
