Out of everyone why on earth was Abby the person that showed up for Raven. Yeah, that was her mother figure, but she had a stronger relationship with Sinclair who was not only a father figure but her consistent ally that fought for her long before she started saving lives through the power of science. Yeah, Abby is a more familiar character but like she isn’t as significant to Raven specifically. Hell, I half expected Finn to show up since they have a past together and his betrayal of their relationship on top of his death was really integral for her character at the time.
When it all comes down to it, Bellamy literally died for nothing. I assumed he would die because he was too far gone and there was no way for them to do a redemption arc in the time they had left and the only other way to satisfy people would be to have him be right all along. I assumed they killed him off because he couldn’t be redeemed and he was ultimately wrong. But no. Technically he is right. Transcendence is actually real. Yeah, Cadogen was always a piece of shit, but I’m sure there could have been a way to have him show enough doubt in Cadogen but belief in their cause--just enough so that when it came to the last war, he could correctly be like “hey no, my sister is right. Cadogen is wrong and we shouldn’t fight each other”.
So why the fuck did they kill him?
So I was totally right in that Octavia doing the test was humanity’s best shot at transcending. Like did not expect myself to call that.
Hope had way too much development at the beginning of this season to be tossed away at the end of it for a weak ass love story.
I have a larger break down post planned for why this season was shit but basically I believe it’s because this show went from a grounded dystopian with some sci-fi elements but interesting character to all the sci-fi tropes you can think of with a peppering of the characters we’ve grown to love over the past 7 years.
Did Emori transcend? Her body was dead and her mind technically was as well so you would think not, but they were both glowing in the mind drive (though I don’t think I saw her at the end). Like the mind drive is a way to preserve someone’s thoughts and memories, but like not their soul. Like Madi was able to transcend because her body was still alive even if she was brain dead so it’s not just the mind that dictates whether you transcend.
What a lackluster finale to a lackluster season.
