Remember this story was originally a role-playing game. The story we've been told by the two creators is that of the four original players of their game, the player for Shed dropped out, so they killed off the character in the game, and killed him off in the story as well. One of the creators was an assistant to George RR Martin (Game of Thrones) at the time...the rumor is that Martin was that player who dropped out. Amos thanked Naomi for being a good person and helping him out. Naomi didn't get a chance to say goodbye to someone. Because Mars is the "red planet," red means "good guy" to Martians. Earth is a blue planet, so blue means "bad guy" to Martians. When a Mars ship goes into combat, their "red alert" is actually a "blue alert." Their ship lights turn blue when they go into combat. Johnson's viewpoint is that the OPA is for human rights. The Martian's and Earthers' viewpoint is that the OPA is a terrorist organization. This episode sold me on the display of realistic physics. Yes, this series is great for re-watching because there are soooooooo many Chekov's Guns and clues to future events. Joe is also interesting to watch as the episode progresses to crisis points and he's just sitting there grinning.

21:32 _"I don't understand why they don't try to blow up the escape shuttle"_ Their ammunition is especially designed to be able to penetrate human bodies, including light body armor, but not ship walls. It would be a very bad idea to shoot around with ammunition that can put holes in a ship hull inside pressurised spacecrafts. Their ammunition is also self-propelled, otherwise it would be quite an experience to fire arms in zero G. Also, the Tachi is not just an "escape shuttle", it's a fully equipped, state-of-the-art Martian gunship. The Donnager is a huge battleship, almost 500m long, has a crew of over 2000, and can carry several Tachi-type frigates and destroyers in its shuttle bays, while the Tachi itself is designed for a crew of up to about 30 people iirc.

This isn't really how it's presented in the backstory we get in the books but I always think that the culture of Mars and it's relationship and attitude to Earth and Earthers make a lot of sense if it originally began as a colonisation project masterminded by weird supremacist billionaires with an Atlas Shrugged complex. It will become clear through the series that Earth is far from uniformly privileged. Belt colonisation on the other hand seems to have been more of a free-for all (you'll learn a bit about the events that precipitated this later) leading to the corporate no-man's-land/"no laws, just cops" situation you've seen so far. My theory is also that the original proto-Belter stock came disproportionately from what are now middle-income countries: people who would have had the baseline of capital and access to education to become space-miners but without the safety net to avoid becoming trapped in that situation inter-generationally.

I wish people would stop saying "this episode is a banger" or "this is important" to new reactors. The whole point of a new reaction is that they're discovering the show themselves. It doesn't hit as hard if they know what to expect. Telling people what's important and what isn't is a low-level spoiler, because you're basically outlining the show's themes before they even happen. You're taking away the element of surprise, which is one of the best things about this show. You just never know which direction it's going to go next. It's okay if people miss details if they can still be surprised.

The Expanse does occasionally do 'time dilation,' but generally in the reverse: it plays slightly fast and loose with travel times between astral bodies more than anything (or glosses over long travel times). This episode captures the time scale of a long-range engagement. Yes, you launch missiles at each other and the missiles take time to reach their targets. Space is BIG, and delayed engagement is a part of that.

Exactly, and that's why they call it "Hammerlock," when the ships get close enough that the defense computers don't have time to react to an incoming round from a railgun. At that point, it's a bloody slug-fest as the railguns from each ship just rip through the other. No magical defense shields. No magical gravity plating. Armor designed to stop shrapnel and PDC rounds, but not thick enough (because of the mass it would require) to stop explosives and railgun rounds.

Why don’t they blow up the escape shuttle: point is they could, but that would mean the guns they’d be using would also be able to destroy the Donnager, the ship currently carrying them. Guns in this universe are such that if you miss the shot you don’t blow a hole in your ship, just on the meat in front of you.

+ the overall size of the ship they escape on is 46 or so meters in length, it's not a small vessel. Would be hard to destroy with the hand held weapons the attacking "Blue Visor" guys have.

High velocity metallic projectiles are a NO NO in space. THis is why Star Trek uses phasers, and Babylon 5 uses PPG (Phased Plasma Gun)

You can compare the OPA to either the Irish Republican Army or the Plains Indians of the American West.

It's hard to listen to the theory crafting when you already know what's going to happen. 😅 it's OK though. I enjoy watching Expanse reactions so I can "rewatch" the show with commentary.

I agree as an avid viewer of reactions sometimes the theories being off is the fun part but when the reactors nail a theory somehow, it's so much fun watching the pieces come together and then them realizing! I can't wait to finish The Expanse to see how other reactors did this show! -Mikey

It can be both hard AND fun having to bite your tongue and neither confirm nor deny their theories while not spoiling the outcomes with foreknowledge 👍

Consider a rewatch of season 1 once you've finished the series, just to watch them see all the seeds planted 😀

IMO havelock is just someone who gives a shit. And making an effort with the station population. There need to be more cops like that.
