1) In Coup de Grace when they discover Emerson has Arker blood, Clarke says "we were genetically engineered; they weren't." (Or something like that. Too lazy to look up the exact quote.)

2) It has been assumed that the black blood has to do with radiation but no confirmation in canon (yet).

3) As Show Addict said, the only possibility is that it's a recessive gene, meaning parents might not have any Nightblood children but their grandchildren might possibly have it. It still doesn't answer the question how this was disseminated into the local population. Did Becca use the remaining syringes to randomly inject Grounders? And how does this work in only a 95-year time-span (since Becca came down two years after the apocolypse)?

4) The whole Luna thing is such a far stretch. I would normally be willing to suspend my disbelief on this point but with the way everything else has happened this season, it seems almost as forced as Bellamy's character arc. I also hope she's dead/dies because I don't care about Luna any more. I was only interested in how she interacts with Lincoln and Lexa.

5) Flamekeeper before Titus.... Good question but I doubt they'll ever answer this.

6) Emori, I honestly don't care about her. I don't dislike her but I prefer Murphy on his own.

7) Roan makes no sense. He was on Lexa's side, then Nia's, then Lexa's, now Ontari's.

8) The blockade seems like such a forgotten yet necessary plot point. It should have been put in place after they first massacred the warriors and now it's in place, it seems to not even be a problem?

My wish for the Season Three Finale: End scene has Murphy waking up on the couch in ALIE's mansion a la 1x01 and her telling Murphy "See? That's why we need you: to stop what's about to happen." And now Murphy has to go save the world...again. So he does it begrudgingly in a semi-time-travel, semi-groundhog-day type redo of Season Three, this time with Murphy as our reluctant hero stopping the bad crap from going down because...I don't know, saving Lexa is the key to saving the world (easy enough assumption). As Murphy tries to stop the "bad" future from happening, they can even re-use tons of footage from this season so it's not a complete waste.

That means Lincoln can still live, let's just pretend Gina never existed (maybe replace her with Mel) and Bellamy never went nuts, Monroe is still alive, Abby was never turned into an incompetent nitwit, Pike never gained control of Arkadia, Octavia never became a chronic POC abuser, Monty was able to get over his mommy issues without putting anyone else in danger, Jasper was able to get medical help, and Nyko and Jackson form a special partnership and friendship as they open the Mount Weather Medical Facility for Grounders and Sky People alike. Also, Lincoln lives.
