Honorable Mention: Rubicon/Resurrection - (I'm counting this as one episode in two parts.) I loved the 47 battling Dr. Tsing and slaughtering all of those MM. I loved how Octavia once again saved Lincoln by knocking him over the head for the thousandth time (she knocks him out just about as often as she injures her leg). Clarke (to Lincoln): "You are my people." Indra: "You've done well, Octavia of the Sky People."

5. His Sister's Keeper/Contents Under Pressure - I love the Blake Sibling storylines and how it shows both the good and bad of sibling relationships. (And it was also the first time Octavia knocks Lincoln over the head...twice.) I also loved the implications of the torture storyline and how it was *Octavia* who saved Finn, not Clarke, Bellamy, or Raven.

4. Spacewalker - I hated Finn since the pilot because he always seemed like such a misogynist to me but this episode made me actually sad about his (necessary) death. And Raven? OMG! She broke my heart at the end. I also want to sneak in the beginning scene in Remember Me starring Clarke as Lady MacBeth.

3. Coup de Grâce - The artfully shot Harvest of Bellamy montage and the Lovejoy scenes. The rites of passage of the children becoming the leaders. Cage: "They take their orders from me now." Clarke: "You may be Chancellor, but I'm in charge."

2. Bodyguard of Lies - Especially the Acid Fog sequence. Bellamy was just awesome all day long.

1. Day Trip - It was so beautiful and symbolic on so many levels and the turning point of Bellamy finding a way to live with what he'd done. I think it was also the start of him believing in forgiveness and redemption (for himself, for Murphy, for Clarke). Monty: "Is the moon in here? I can't change the tide if the moon won't cooperate. It's basic physics." "I 'm pretty sure I ate a pinecone because it told me to."
