Usually the golden rule of TV series is "show, not talk", now in this episode I saw a lot of talking, about history, about strategy, but not showing what they are actually talking about. Confusing and not sure what they were really planning.

The talk between Octavia and Bellamy in the cave seemed quite forced. They were trying to do an emotional scene but the talking is really cheap. It feels like it was the music that made the mood, then Octavia just confessed her love to her brother.

The story told by Echo is strange. The Queen let two girls fight and the winner got the job. It shouldn't be so surprising in a ruthless kru like Azgeda. And the Queen had to shoot the poor man, then forced the 2 girls fight herself? The Queen must be extremely busy back in her days. Also who cares if Ash is Echo or Echo is Ash?

It was quite a good twist that Clarke pretended to be Josphine and saw Madi bonded to the chair. I hope Clarke showed a little more concern. But that part at least is interesting.
