I’m only up to S5E3 so pleeease no spoilers past that!! But I’m still dwelling on E2, can anyone explain why Octavia made them fight to the death at the end? Not the bit 6 years later but the first time! Including the guy who stole blankets??! How did she go from oh ya he stole blankets just make him give them back, to fight to the death? Why didn’t she just kill the ones who were against onekru then carry on being a good leader? I know it’s The 100 & it’s been like this for 4 seasons but I just didn’t understand why she made them fight each other. It seemed like a weird decision that was obviously only gonna descend into whah we’ve seen 6 years later, I just wouldn’t expect that from her, she could’ve kept the peace surely by just killing those against onekru & moving on?! Maybe I’m naive haha...
