"Does Miller take bribes?" He literally took a bribe in the first episode to not inspect the air filters, which led to them failing, which led to a bunch of sick people, which led to him throwing the guy in the air lock.
Huh I am sorry I missed that. Thanks for enlightening me. Once again, with all of the things I had to prepare for when launching the channel, I reacted to the first episode months ago.
Kind of random, but food for thought : when you look at artists’ conceptions on “the belt” i.e. the asteroid belt, it always looks like a shovel full of gravel, where the asteroids are almost touching each other. In reality,the average distance between asteroids within the belt is 600,000 miles, which is a little more than twice the distance between the earth and the moon.
@@irishlatinoreacts1842 it wasn't the bleeding out that killed him, Lopez knew he wouldn't survive the damage caused by the g-forces of the ship escaping. The g-forces on top of his wounds is what did him in.
The OPA is "loosely" made up of 100s of belter factions/tribes [in the books, it's described as 1000s, but they reduced the number for the show]. It was essentially formed as a union to get better worker rights for its members, but has started to move into the political arena. Not all belters belong to the OPA and, not all tribes/factions agree on policies. Some are quite radical, and may be thought of a terrorists; others are quite peaceful. BTW, the different belter creole accents are reflective of the different tribes of belters. Anderson Station was a "Station", not a ship. The civilians got on it because they lived and worked there. Lopez died due to the high-g's the ship pulled during it's escape from the Donager's blast. He knew it was going to kill him, which is why he said. "it would have been nice to see an ocean on Mars." Also the ship is (or was)the M.C.R.N Tachi. not MORN Tachi. MCRN = Mars Congressional Republic Navy. And I do like your comments. but be careful. Every line of dialog is important. If you're talking while a character is talking, you're missing some important details. I think this is where you're picking up some confusion. However, how you react is your choice, and I"m not complaining. 😀
Thanks for the comment! Yes it is hard to strike that balance of watching the show and reacting. Getting this stuff on RU-vid requires me to make the video more about my reaction and less about the show itself, and I obviously cannot predict when the next piece of dialogue is going to commence. So it is inevitable that I will talk over certain key points. But I am glad that I have all of you guys here to point out what I missed!
The little card he puts in his hat comes from the mouse he pulled apart in Julie's apartment and not the Tech Noir shop. The shop led him to realize there was more than meets the eye about the mouse in Julie's apartment that he had seen on his first visit to her place.
Since you've said it more than once, just letting you know it's not "MORN" they are showing on screen before the ship name...it is MCRN..Mars Congressional Republic Navy
Keep ‘em coming my guy!! Also sorry to be that guy, but Holden was with the Earth Navy. This show really rewards a sharp eye, and a binge structure. But don’t worry, the fandom knows it’s a lot to keep up with, especially in these first few eps.
@@TArnoldFerguson Yes, no chance an Earther would get in Martian Navy. In real world citizens from enemy nation are not accepted into military, there's just too many risks involved and blanket rule is easiest way handle it.
The focus of coffee in the series is two-fold. First, it is a luxury product because of the conditions needed to produce it. Second, the writers of the books (and the television series) treat coffee as special in their lives. In an interview, Steven Strait said that Holden's character arc through the first half of the first season is a man searching for a good cup of coffee.
Great reaction! And don't worry about missing things. There is A LOT going on and sooo many details. I know some people get a bit ... harsh... with their comments, but we're a passionate bunch. Sometimes it's hard to remember when we were watching for the first time and all the things we missed. Just enjoy the ride and we'll enjoy it with you!
Here is a great comment that makes me keep going. Thanks @lexy2311! I realize I am missing a lot and I get some complaints about talking over certain details, but I cannot simply sit there and soak everything in like some seem to want me to. My reaction is the only thing that allows the RU-vid videos to even upload. Thanks again for watching! Really appreciate it!
@@irishlatinoreacts1842 >> but I cannot simply sit there and soak everything in like some seem to want me to. What we want is for you to react to the entire series, and then do another round of reaction videos featuring The Expanse, "My *SECOND* time watching The Expanse"
Radio communication has three forms in The Expanse. Broadcast can be picked up by every ship, station, and planet with an antenna array. Tight-beam is a point-to-point encoded transmission that no one can intercept unless they are in the path of the transmission. Or Wide-beam, which is not Broadcast but is sent into a zone of space that a ship will be moving through, so hopefully, the ship and the transmission will intercept each other.
The name Rocinante is the horse ridden by the main character in the story that also includes Dulcinea. Some more clues coming in later episodes; I believe the reason The Expanse was written with these references is to give an insight into Holden's personality and how, at least at this point in the story, has some similarities to the main character in the other story. It's not a big spoiler to know what this means, and if you don't get the references because you don't know the story they are from then it wouldn't matter. There are references to so many other books and movies embedded in The Expanse, and there's a whole series of RU-vid videos by the authors and cast of the TV series going into great depth about all of the influences. Unfortunately those videos are not spoiler free so probably best not to watch any of them yet, and because many of them are over an hour long and more than one per episode of the series you need to be a very dedicated fan to watch all of them (I think I've only watched the ones from about season 5 on when they started uploading them after each episode) then they went back and started again back from the first season and I watched most of those and then stopped; I will go back one day and watch The Expanse again and all of the extra stuff, at least that's what I keep telling myself.
As someone of Latin heritage it is reasonable for you to try and learn something about "Don Quixote De La Mancha" by Miguel de Cervantes, considered among the very finest of Spanish language literature ever, and even in worldwide literature. Dulcinea, Rocinante, Holden's constant tilting at windmills; all strong references from that book. As you'll soon learn, he got a very early introduction to the story and archetypes, and it is inherent in his character over all 6 years of the show.
I definitely plan on looking into reading Don Quixote. Being that it was published in the early 1600's, I wonder how its language would resonate with my modern brain. Yet, I've ready the Iliad and The Odyssey which are far older so...have you fully read the text?
The intro does indeed come back. In future seasons it'll occasionally update itself to reflect events, so keep an eye out! Holden was in the Earth navy: He's born in Montana, and the Mars military only accepts true red Martians with dust in their blood! "Miller's not impressed" nah, Miller calls the OPA 'victims' and does his best to distance himself from the other Belters, even wears Earther clothes and hat. He wants to convince them - and him - that he's not a weak pathetic oppressed Belter, like they are. "The first mouse we saw in Julie's room did not look electronic" it was completely stationary on it's wheel. It was either electronic or stuffed! Anderson Dawes acts a lot like a mob boss. Everyone knows who he is and he'll talk about it freely, but nobody dares to make a move on him. He seems confident enough to walk around without visible bodyguards, though. I love the little montage of the boys making themselves at home: Naomi's clearly not as comfortable as them on the ship, though. Miller is a classic noir detective in the mold of Philip Marlowe. He's grubby but not dirty, a little crooked but not bent. He's a hard drinker, and he gets too attached to the crimes, and not attached enough to those around him. That's the other reason, he's got the hat, of course.
Cannot wait for the intro to come back. I wonder if they brought it back due to public outcry back in the day. Great way to describe Miller's character as well. Thanks for the comment!
“Inners” or “Inyaloda” belter slang for Earthers & Martians. - Appreciate (& agree) with your comments concerning religion / religious characters in the show. It’s not a major focus, but it is refreshing to see religious persons existing in the shows universe- and another +, they’re not portrayed with the usual stereotypes. The Nauvoo is being built by Tycho station which is located out “in the belt” - most inhabitants are belters, but Fred Johnson (guy in charge) is a former Earther… (with a bit of a controversial past….)😏 Remember- all your questions WILL be answered…. And then quickly replaced by many more! 🚀
18:13 I don't think they'd actually leave that guy alone if he was part of the OPA. she's just saying that it's a good thing he's not, because if he was then chasing him down might set off another even worse riot, and the cops' main goal is keeping the station's population passive and productive.
Great reaction! Don't worry too much about missing a few details here and there, you're passionate and you're having a good time, that’s what matters at the end of the day :D
A couple of things: “Tachi” is pronounced “TAH-chee.” It’s the Japanese word for sword. At 17:24, Filat Kothari says, (referring to shooting Havelock with the mining spike) “My going away present. Onto bigger and better things.” Recall a few episodes ago, when Miller catches Diogo stealing water. Miller tells Diogo that he should worry about the gangs more than he should worry about the cops, and Diogo replies that the gangs have all left. Gangs don’t just leave their turf for no reason. There’s a reason for this. Stay tuned…
A creole language is one that essentially evolves from a simplified form of a bunch of other langauges, *and* are acquired by children as a native language (which diustinguishes creole from pidgin). There are a ton of creole languages currently spoken on Earth, many of them based on French, English, Spanish, Dutch and Portugese which arose as a result of colonialism. Thgey include things like Jamaican Patois and Lousiana Creole.
So a wide beam transmission is broadcast to all of space. Everyone can read it. If it's intended for a specific target, it could be encrypted, so only a specific target can read it, assuming they know how to decrypt it. But wide beam broadcasts are far less secure than tight beam transmissions. A wide beam broadcast is how Holden told the entire solar system that Mars killed the Cant. Tightbeams are how ships communicate when they want their communications to be private. It's based on a comm laser directed at a specific target. But you have to know where your target is. And where it's going. Tightbeams are pretty useless unless you are, at most, a few light-seconds away from your target, or they're on an incredibly straight and regular course where you can shoot the tightbeam directly at where they will be in some amount of time. Just remember, space is FUCKING HUGE, and even light takes time to cross it. It takes the light from our sun 8 minutes to reach the Earth, and that's a pretty tiny distance in the grand scale of the universe. Also, Welcome to the Rocinante!!
Holden was part of the UN (Earth) Navy. Naval nomenclature tends to transcribe very well to space ships. Both Earth and Mars have a space fleet called a "Navy". Hope that clears things up a bit. 🤟😎
Ah that is one of those classic sci-fi films that I haven't gotten around to seeing. I know I know I need to. Maybe I can react to it on this channel at one point!
Security captain Shadid was wary of going after OPA members in the immediate wake of the water crisis riots. Trying not to aggravate the situation further. I'm not sure if there was a line in there saying that it was an order from above, from the Ceres governor or not. Julie Mao's hamster was clearly some kind of toy / robot "pet" as it wasn't caged. Also when Miller first saw it it was static. Later it was running in the wheel and its eyes were lit up like red LEDs. I think you missed Amos rubbishing Alex's suggestion of going to a Martian port because they are in essentially a stolen Martian ship with a dead martian "in the trunk", and Holden had said there was nobody left alive who would believe their story. Lopez was bleeding heavily and then had to undergo high G flight. You guessed about Fred being the Butcher pretty damn quick though - bravo!
Holden was a Lieutenant in the UN Space Navy and was cashiered when he took a shot at his "superior asshole" (you know the reference). Alex was in the MCRN.
Oh man, Bizi's death made my cry like a baby! I just held it in for 20 minutes until the episode ended! Haha, that grin of Bizi's on your little photo there is just making me giggle right now.
Great reaction! Still a little misguided on some points. But most of the comments are setting you straight! One I will point out is Fred Johnson is with the OPA now bur in the flashback he was a Col of the UN Navy! In Star Wars there is the Millennium Falcon, Star Trek has the Enterprise. In The Expanse we have the Rocinante! And we love her very much!! Respect her name!! Also our fandom adopted its name from this episode " Screaming Firehawks!" Looking forward to the next one!
Thanks for the compliment on the reaction! I do my best with a full time job and a wife and a pug! And me editing everything myself so I appreciate all of the support! I love the name Rocinante of course, with my Spanish background.
@@irishlatinoreacts1842 Your editing is really good, and has a home-grown flavor to it. I hope you do not ever feel the need to hire one of those professional editors that some of the bigger reaction channels do. They seem over-produced and overly slick. Someone was complaining about your voice being mixed at too high a level in a comment on a previous video. I didn't notice that myself; indeed, I am grateful for how well you've mic'd yourself. There isn't any boomy room echo, and the line noise is barely perceptible. This is in strong contrast to a few other Expanse reactors where the audio is quite the mess.
I felt so bad for you last episode, it was clear you were really mad about poor Shed (who lost his head, now he's dead..). Maybe someone has pointed out that in the original RPG the person playing Shed had to drop out of the game so he was killed off!! I love Lopez's line "the so called Medic" ! Anyhow, I am so excited for you to continue watching this amazing show and I love your little Pug!
Oh thanks so much for the sweet comment! Some people find the pug a distraction but it's either have him on or I cannot do content. Hence being a pug Dad! It is comments like this that make me keep going so thank you! Thanks for the insight on Shed as well good sir!
The OPA doesn't have immunity but Star Helix were told by the Governer of Ceres to leave their members alone (probably to avoid problems with them). So Captain Shadid was like: ok, Kothari is NOT OPA so fuck that bastard up all you like if you catch him! btw: the spike used on Havelock DID go all the way through. Remember they pinned him to the wall with that. Depending on where exactly it went though, if it injured any vital organs and how quickly you get medical care, an injury like that CAN be survived if you're lucky (I wouldn't bet on it though). As others have already said: Holden is from Earth and was a member of the UN Navy before being dishonorably discharged, Alex was part of the Martian Navy as a transport pilot. Naomi is a belter and Amos is a civilian from Earth. Tycho station does not belong to the UN. it's basically a company and the station is out in the belt, constructing the Nauvoo for the Mormons. As we learned in this episode, Fred Johnson used to be a Colonel in the UN Navy (and had command during the Anderson Station incident) but apparently he dropped out somewhere in between that and the current time of the show and became the director of operations at Tycho Station. Also he apparently is OPA nowadays, at least all the Rocinante's crew members know him to be "some kind of bigshot in the OPA" even though he's from Earth.
Not really particularly relevant, but all corporations have to have a legal base somewhere, and the Tycho Corporation is based on Earth. It's not UN, but we can't really say that it is "the Belt" (not that you did), even though that's where Tycho station is presently.
@MattNolanCustom that's true of course. When talking about The Expanse is important to keep in mind that the factions are not monolithic but made up of people, sub factions and so on.
Many fans complain that there is no AI in The Expanse, though I point out the exchange between Naomi and the ship regarding its systems' status. While it may not speak, the Roci appears intelligent and communicates more efficiently with the crew (to whom Lopez gave full access).
@@irishlatinoreacts1842, at the very end of "CQB," as the Roci (the Tachi) is getting ready to dust off from the Donnager, Lopez directs that command at the ship's AI.
@@LeeCarlson Yes. And Lopez giving full access to everyone on board meant that he didn't have time to figure out who was going to be in charge, or who was going to survive. In other words, he knew he was going to die, and needed to assign full access to everyone immediately. If you missed this detail, it removes the first strong hint that Lopez knew he was going to die, and his statement, "It would have been nice seeing an ocean on Mars" doesn't have the same impact.
@@LeeCarlson no, not "exactly", as you did not elaborate as to why, nor did you offer any thoughts on how missing this detail might lead the viewer to a place where they didn't understand Lopez was on the way out.
It's not crazy accurate, but they use the laws of physics as part of the story. More than any other show I've seen. Maybe even the battles feel realistic. I think Holden is a former Earth naval officer.
Also when Holden said the only Martians that will believe us are dead Lopez could back them but he was dead there are only 4 people alive on the Tachi aka Rosanante
Filat Kothari is with the Griegas, so he's a gangster. If he were OPA, he would be protected by every Belter group in Ceres, and Star Helix would never find him.
At the end, Miller was at Julie's place and got the chip from her mouse. While he was at the other place he realized that Julie's mouse may have had a chip but the show does a poor job of showing that he went to Julie's.
I address this in the intro to episode 6 which is out on Patreon now. Yes he definitely was at Julies, but I am not sure if they show distinctly that he gets the chip out of her mouse. I could be wrong...
Just wanted to say, you're doing great. This show is dense with information but it will get easier as you absorb the basics and put them behind you. BTW, you are free to pronounce Naomi as you choose. The characters themselves have various pronunciations so... Again, you're doing great and I look forward to your future Expanse reactions. My only wish would be that they came more often.
Thanks for the compliment @patrickdrew4891! These are the ones that keep me going. And I wish I could get them out more quickly too! Being a new channel I do everything myself (the editing and all that) along with a full time job, a wife and a pug (I'm sure you've noticed him haha). The full length 6th episode is up on Patreon as of now, and I should have the edited version on RU-vid within the next day or two!
The Belt is between Mars and Jupiter. The "Outer Planets" are the gas giants, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus. The "Inner Planets" are the rocky planets, Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars (though only Earth and Mars are colonized) In the books, there was an attempt to colonize Venus with floating cities but it failed. The company hired to build the floating cities... Tyco 😯
I definitely know the difference between the outer and inner planets. I misspoke when I said Jupiter instead of Mars but I clearly corrected it on screen during the edit.
Based on the first five episodes, I would recommend that if you feel the impulse to say the phrase "I may be wrong about that"... listen to yourself, because you've got a really high batting average with that phrase.
IF we like your style? I like your style. Easy to tell it's going to be a fun going along with your journey through The Expanse. Although I find myself feeling pained for the little guy sitting ever so patiently in the background wondering what the heck you're doing, doing nothing. Maybe a dog bone during Expanse episodes? Any, I'm back to make my suggestion again to avoid comments that bring up The Expanse Books in relation to the show. Fight the urge. Just scroll past. I don't scroll past and I get triggered when people post spoilers in the comments. The worst happened to the Battlestar Galactica reactor Carmen Young. Someone got pissy in the comments in Season 3 and posted every major plot point and reveal for all of Season 4 in her comments. I'm sure no one here will do anything that bad. But it's frustrating that when people watched The Expanse on their first view, they had no idea what was going on. Coming up with wild theories. Missing the clues laying in plain sight. It was an organic part of enjoying the show for the first time. Then the same people come to reactor's channels and feel the need to spoon feed reactors things they themselves didn't know on firs viewing. Denying reactors the same enjoyment of finding where they missed clues. Finding out this theory or that theory was wrong. So do yourself a big favor and let yourself be surprised organically watching the show. It's alright not to know what's coming and where. In fact, your mind will be soooooooooooooooooo blown by getting smacked in the face by the unexpected. And the best thing you can do in the moment is ignore any information about the books. At least until Season 4. By then the hand holders will be pretty much done wanting to hold your hand. Another great reaction. Looking forward myself to making comments other than this one.
Wow, great comment @Dendood! Appreciate it sooo much! I do love my little guy in the back and I hope people realize that me allowing him to jump on my lap when he is restless even while I am recording an episode shows how much I cannot live without him (even if some do find him a distraction from the reaction). I give him a treat before AND after every reaction. And he wakes me up every morning at 6 AM for breakfast so don't feel too bad for him! Me shutting him out would not allow this channel to exist! I also do appreciate your comments on people being too spoilery. I haven't experienced that yet at all. People have been really nice and just been giving me small snippets of lore that just enhances the watching experience. I am sorry that that happened to Carmen. I do not believe that anyone would do that here to me. I feel very welcomed by this new community of The Expanse and I cannot wait to continue the journey!
Rocinante is the Horse of Don Quixote from the Book of the same name, written by Miguel de Cervantes and published in two parts in 1605 and 1615. It is widely considered to be the founding work of western literature. If you've ever heard the phrase "tilting at windmills" - that's Don Quixote for you, as he decided that the Windmills were evil Giants he had to fell.
Speaking of Episode Titles: You'll realize that a lot of the Expanse Episode titles have more than one meaning. For example the title of the second next episode (Episode 7) just so happens to be "Windmills". Also every Season's last episode is named after the corresponding The Expanse Book - we are currently (and will be until Season 2 Episode 5) in "Leviathan Wakes"
To understand all of the names and terms the books reference, a wide knowledge of Literature, Mythology, History, Physics - or rather Science in general and the scientific method - is useful, though i'm sure the comment section will help if there's something you don't know about.
Well I cannot say I have a "wide" knowledge of Literature, Mythology, History and Physics. I'd say I have a narrow knowledge of each. So I'll pick up on some things but definitely not all.
"Wide Beam" broadcast is like a general radio broadcast, radiating in all directions. You'll later hear the phrase "Tight Beam Transmission" which is a focused beam, often a laser, type of signal that can only be intercepted if you're along the line of the transmission.
Tycho tracked the Tachi because Fred had their long-range sensors (including the Nauvoo's) focused on the battle and monitoring everything that left that AO.
Tycho Station is approximately midway between Jupiter and Ceres, which puts it in a position to "see" what was going on during the Donnager assault and record all the data it could.
Rocinante is the name of Don Quixote’s horse. If you look at the names of the episodes you will see some references. Not the last time they reference it. In fact, the first episode is Dulcinea.
There’s a lot going on and the show (and books) generally don’t do unrealistic exposition. They just thrown you in, but it all comes together as you watch the show.
In case no one has told you yet, the end of the books doesn't necessarily coincide with the end of the season. The end of the first book concludes Season 2, episode 5. Actually, episodes 4 and 5 can be considered one long episode and it's usually recommended to watch them back to back.
I gotta say it: You have to be a little more attentive my friend. You have been in the earlier episodes, so I know you can. :) Just 2 minutes before you say "Lopez has a vote", they were talking of "a dead Martian in the trunk" and said that everybody from the Cant and the Donnager was dead. He died during the high-G burn escaping the Donnager. We've seen Miller take bribes in episode 1 from the guy he later thew into the airlock. Anderson Station is a station, as the name says, not a ship. I think you talked a little too much over dialogue this time. You gonna miss stuff (we saw you did). Believe us, every line is there for a reason. And some of it will not be repeated. The "mouse" is a hamster and the first we saw _did_ look electronic. It had its eyes turning from green to red while Miller was there, and went from kinda frozen to running in the wheel. Because it is the same. Miller went back to Julie's room after he saw the open hamster in the sherpa's chamber to take the thing apart, and he found a chip in it. It was from Julie's hamster, not from the shop. Easter eggs in this episode: The Tech Noir is a reference to Terminator. If you've seen it you may know. Also, on the left of the Tech Noir plate of the shop, you can see "T-100", which is an early Terminator model. The show is full of such tiny details, references and easter eggs. Beside all the little story related details. There are references to all kind of pop culture, like movies, series, books, games, bands, etc. hidden everywhere. There are references to Star Wars, Star Trek, Alien, Dr. Who, Firefly, Simpsons, Don Quixote, Pacific Rim, the rock band Rush, and many many more. You can rewatch this show a dozen of times and more and you will still find details you missed before. That's one of the reasons this show is so special. You never get tired of rewatching it.
Don't be too harsh on reactors for reacting. Don't forget they will watch it all over again when doing the edit. Tech Noir was the club in Terminator, and before that it was the movie genre name coined by one reviewer to describe Bladerunner.
@@MattNolanCustom I'm not trying to be harsh, but honest. I think he talked way more and also longer over dialogue than in the first 4 episodes. And that's why he missed stuff. I'm fine with reactors reacting. Just keep your attention on the show and what is said. Part of the fun of watching Expanse reaction is seeing them speculating, finding hints, and connecting the dots. It's why I stopped following Catchup-packets back long ago. They constantly taked over dialogue, refused to use subtitles, and looked at each other while talking instead of the screen. They missed so many things, and then they blamed the show for not telling them.
I do address a lot of your concerns in the intro to episode 6 which is on Patreon now and will be on RU-vid within 48 hours. Yea, talking over dialogue is tough. I definitely don't try to, but sometimes the timing is just poor because I obviously do not know when exactly they are going to speak next. I will attempt to get better at that! And of course I love the easter eggs but don't expect me to get most of them on, well not just a first watch, but a first watch where I am aware that I need to speak and REACT in a way that I wouldn't if I wasn't doing a reaction channel. I cannot just sit there and take everything in or otherwise this channel wouldn't be worth watching (and be more difficult to upload to RU-vid). Appreciate the comment!
@@irishlatinoreacts1842 Just to make this clear, the easter eggs were just some additional interresting details I wanted to add about the episode. Tt has nothing to do with what I said before about missing things. I certainly don't expect you to catch these kind of details. I just noticed that you talked more over dialogue than in the episodes before, and for that reason missed some stuff. It's not a big thing, I've seen much worse. It was mainly to remind you to stay attentive, especially during dialogues.
I do not like the heat, but I also am a lover of sports, and July is the worst month for that. Baseball use to be so much better than it was and that's all we get in July.
As some others have said, you're missing too many things. If you're going to comment you should pause the show. There's very little in The Expanse that's irrelevant.
I do apologize for missing so much. Many have said this show is extremely dense especially in the beginning, but as a reaction channel, I can't just sit there and attempt to soak everything in. I need to react, otherwise I'll never get my videos up on RU-vid. And I think it would just be boring to watch me sitting there. I have you all here to tell me what I miss and I appreciate that!
@@irishlatinoreacts1842 Nobody says you should _not_ react or comment. But in this one you were talking a lot more over dialogue than in the 4 episodes before, I feel.And that's why you also missed more.
Apparently you automatically believe anythiing your government tells you. Re-watch this episode with a careful eye as to what it actually shows you about Col. Fred Johnson. Do not let yourself be prejudiced by Naomi's opinion. She has no personal knowledge regarding the Anderson Station massacre. Also, realize what the flashback did not show you when it readily could have done so, and try to reconcile Johnson's current position within the OPA as the leader of Tycho station with the assertion that he once butchered a hundred or so Belter civilians at Anderson Station.
One of those comments that should come after other info is given to the reactor for themselves. The beautiful deal with this show is what you learn in hindsight and how it shapes thoughts. Given out info like this starts making someone question things before the show does what it does best.
Yes per @EvilAnomaly 's comment below. I won't be rewatching any episode for a while since I want to keep content going on this channel. So you have to take my first reactions as they come.
@@EvilAnomaly So, you actually think the flashback proves Johnson is "The Butcher of Anderson Station"? If not, what's wrong with me questioning the validity of that conclusion?
@@irishlatinoreacts1842 I appreciate you took the time to provide me with a reply. I don't host a video blog and really have no idea how much time and effort it must take to do the editing and uploading, but imagine it must be considerable. I enjoy the content, and by all means, keep things moving forward.
