blue goo + crazy scientist = good story

KAC · Jan 7, 2021, 06:58 AM

Marcos took the blue goo and scientist.

GSGRUNT · Jan 7, 2021, 10:54 AM

Didn't the scientist find his daughter and that was the end of his story line?

Nascar24 · Jan 7, 2021, 02:06 PM

Hmmm, don't recall either of those happening, The leader that just up and disappeared with the scientist had pretty big parts in the show in the early going. I suppose he could have had an accident with an asteroid and we never saw him or the scientist again.

In an episode or two ago, someone showed Holden a video of Inaros' men kidnapping the crazy scientist. I believe it was Fred Johnson who showed it to him.

Different scientist. You're thinking of the botanist Prax. They're referring to the crazy, brain-altered scientist who was working for Mao's bloogoo henchmen, the one writing all the weird maths on the room with glass walls. He and the early-series OPA leader Anderson Dawes went to parts unknown, never to be seen again until HBO's release of Chernobyl and Netflix's The Crown.

Are we about to see Dawes again? Is he the puppet master behind Marcos?

I'm totally guessing, these are not spoilers.

KAC · Jan 7, 2021, 10:35 PM

I know which crazy scientist is being spoken of. The only person they haven’t showed clearly is Dawes. The scientist and the final protomolecule is with Marcos and the free navy gays.

The botanist did take his daughter and is back on gay mead to rebuild.

There might also be a protomolecule in Clarissa’s mod but they never explained her mod. She seems to be ingesting her own gum to get the freaky on.

I was answering GSGRunt. Yeah, I also wondered about whether Clarissa had a stick o' proto-gum. She might morf into a Sarah Kerrigan Zerg-type if she isn't careful.

that episode 7 is the best dramatic episode in the show so far, which make me more mad that there's only 3 episodes left this season.

This season has been kind of weird for me so far. Maybe because all the characters have been separated. It took a while for the plot to come together. It feels like the season is just getting started now, and there are only a couple of episodes left.

KAC · Jan 13, 2021, 03:46 AM

I couldn’t care less about Naomi and Amos drama.

A2597 · Jan 13, 2021, 07:35 AM

wait, there's only a couple episodes left? It honestly feels like the season just started...

Edit...the last 60 seconds of this ep were awesome though. That's some awesome aim. LOL

I just re-watched. The first segment is hard to time because they cut between three people, but was around 30 seconds in vaccum, before she used the med needle, which I'm assuming was a "reset" for blood oxygen in universe.
At that point, it was almost exactly 15 seconds from needle to her last action, which pushed her into the airlock, which then closed and pressurized automatically.

Close enough. The show always does respect science. It’s one of the few SciFi series that does.

Then she’s dead!

oh emm gee, a Jeffries tube reference. Those didn't open up to the outside of the ship, did they, Jim?

I don't recall, I thought they shot spock out of one! They could always shoot her into planet genesis.

Napoleonic · Jan 20, 2021, 07:23 PM

Episode 8 is terrible with nothing really going on, and only 2 episodes left, is this going to end with a cliffhanger or what?

Nascar24 · Jan 20, 2021, 08:05 PM

Yea didn’t really care for this episode either, big surprise, the space walk didn’t kill her so we had to watch her walking around the dump of a ship whining for half the episode.

Yeah, it's like they're trying to gin up an Emmy nomination for Dominique Tripper (Naomi) this season. Her signal-switching later on was pretty neat-oh, though.

We've seen some skin from Drummer and now a tiny sliver of ass from Clarissa. Pleeeeease let us see some more of Bobbie D!

KAC · Jan 20, 2021, 08:42 PM

Such a bad episode I watched it during a zoom meeting.

**Trunks0** · Jan 21, 2021, 02:59 AM

yea wtf, this is the final season and this episode was a complete waste of time and took forever to do almost nothing

KAC · Jan 21, 2021, 03:27 AM

Final season? Dafuq?

A2597 · Jan 21, 2021, 04:17 AM

Season 6 is the final season, so one more.
