The Expanse Season 6 Episode 6 Ending Explained. Series finale breakdown. Deep dive recap and review of s06e06 “Babylon's Ashes”. Please subscribe! 👉 bit.ly/PetePeppers
The Expanse series finale concluded the story of the crew of the Rocinante for now. Season 6 episode 6 saw the war with the Free Navy come to an end. After the war a coalition between the Inner Planets and the Belt formed a Trade Union to act as an independent entity to help control traffic through the Ring Gates. Avasarala convinced James Holden to take the role as the first president since he was apolitical, but he resigned for his first act. His Vice President Camina Drummer then took over the role so that the Trade Union would be run by a Belter.
The crew of the Rocinante led a daring assault on the Ring Space after a naval battle failed to stop Marco from heading to Medina Startion in episode 6. The series finale saw them enact an ingenious plan to wake up the Ring Entities (Unknown Agressors) to kill Marco and destroy his fleet.
This ending explained video breaks down the events of the season 6 finale. There are still three more books in the Expanse series, but at this time there are no plans to adapt them. Fans hope the story will continue in the future.

I’m going to miss this show. I’ll be doing a live stream discussion about the series finale on Saturday at 6pm ET with BenjaTV and the guys from Bald Move ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-gUcPK3BvCCA.html.

@KodaVoss 2 года назад

I think it would be amazing if you made a video summarizing what happens in the books after the series (or a video for each book... not sure how much content the remaining books would create). Oh, and is there more to the "strange dogs" story or did they show us everything that was contained in that novella?

Firstly I will miss the writing. It is unusual for scripts to be so consistently good. And this show [ and the books] remain outstanding right to the end.. Secondly I will miss the ensemble of actors who fleshed out this tale so perfectly. At present there is nothing I know of to replace it. A genuine shame that the powers that be have chosen to let it end prematurely.

@Bardghost_Isu 2 года назад

I saw someone suggest it earlier, but it feels like that last scene between Naomi and James were aimed at the audience. "But what about all this other stuff" Is the audience and "lets just wait here a minute" is the team addressing it, as they said in interviews, they feel this is a pause not the end.

i think they did it in a way that acknowledges that there is more. sets it up if they can find a way to finish the series, or at least encourage show-only people to read the books if they cant make that happen. the next 3 books are essentially a 3-parter. so you could do it in a miniseries or 3 direct to streaming movies, or even condense it into a single movie for the cliff notes version. i suppose they could scan the sets or at least break down and store the roci set, if they haven't already.

"The most thrilling assault sequence, ever seen on T.V." No Kidding! Visually stunning as Amos is thrusting through battlespace on his ejector seat after launching from the pod. My jaw dropped. Then the assault from the station on the guns, and Draper all gung ho, with Amos and the Roci coming to save the day. Couldn't have expected anything more thrilling or captivating.

@ldougherty1572 2 года назад

The Amos landing one-shot really reminded me of Battle of the Bastards, and while I still think that sequence probably remains the most impressive television sequence ever filmed, this is certainly no slouch and in many ways just as intense. And to think that it wasn't even the best moment of that setpiece (Bobbie's stand and the Roci rescue was even cooler in my book), let alone the episode is absurd. A phenomenal finale that provided a satisfying conclusion to both the characters and themes of the show, in addition to including some of the series' most exciting moments. Really incredible!

@@ashlevrier Think about it for a second, all it took was a single power armored Martian Marine to destroy that rail gun…. If you send more than one, your chances of the rail gun surviving the conflict diminish considerably :-) Sadly, a lot of good people died for nothing in that scene because Holden and the gang were trying to take the rail gun intact…. Which was a fools errand from the beginning. The objective should have been to disable the rail guns one way or the other, preferably destroying the reactor so that they could be repaired and brought back online later. The idea of capturing them intact and then immediately using them against Marco…. Should have been immediately dismissed as highly unlikely. The free Navy would have to be absolutely brain dead to design a command and control system that doesn’t have a lockout involved to prevent the enemy from using it. A lot of good people died trying to capture something that they had a snowballs chance in hell of being able to use. If the Rocie could shoot Medina station, they should have shot the reactor and silenced the gun.

I love the proto molecule plot line and definitely want to know more about that. I watched Season 1 episode 1 the other day and it’s just amazing to see such a progression of story. Anyway, great video. I hope there is a future series that centers more around the ring gate and entities and all that jazz.

I didn't know about The Expanse until summer of 2021, but once I did, I was instantly obsessed. I watched all 5 seasons within a week or two, then rewatched all 5 seasons like a month after. Then after the release date of season 6 was announced, I started reading the books and rewatching the first 5 seasons side-by-side to catch the differences. Managed to finish the first five books before season 6 started, and then I read book 6 at a slower pace to not get ahead of the show. I'll of course continue all the way to the end of the 9th book, but I sure hope Amazon decides to make more seasons someday. They can't leave people hanging with that post-credit teaser like that, with only the book to look forward to (especially since the book and the show have diverged significantly enough already).

It seems to me that the show runners would not have gone to the trouble of casting Winston Duarte if there were no plans to continue the story in some form. He is the main antagonist in the third trilogy of stories. For those who haven't read the books, he's sort of a combination of Holden and Marco Inaros. He dose horrific things to achieve his goals, he has an enormous ego that supports his self righteousness, but he is a genuinely loving father who believes he's doing the right thing for humanity.

Clarissa's prognosis (of 5 years left to live) is different from the books in a way that tells me, if they get the opportunity to continue the story on TV, could mean a shorter time jump than was the case from book 6 to book 7 (ie they would need to return in less than 5 years rather than the 2-3 decades in the books). Meaning they could continue to tell the story without recasting any of the actors. This gives me more hope that The Expanse will be back on TV at some point

@thelemmiebee 2 года назад

They wouldn't need to recast any of the actors even if they skipped 3 decades. They could easily age the actors aesthetically and with the anti-aging drugs that they have available at some point in the 3 decades that pass make them appear on the far end of middle aged rather than 80 year old seniors. It could work. But.... I agree they likely won't skip 30 years. 5 seems to be not enough though, considering all that changes in the universe in the timeskip in the books. Either way it'll be interesting to see what they do.

The assault on Medina station was amazing. The whole 5 min intro of the 6 final episodes at least explained how the Proto molecule evolved on the planet and how it allows beings to be immortal. They left that unanswered as the two siblings ran off into the forest... As for Duarte that man was a genius. He got his people off of mars into their own system, setup shop in an alien world that is habitable, keep a protomolecule sample AND trick Marcos into staging a diversion war. And all it cost him were a few Martian ships. Talking about an amazing deal.

Thank you Pete for covering the Expanse. For me, I have to pick Seasons 2 and Seasons 3 as the best in the series. Sad to see the show end, very grateful we got 6 seasons. Have heard Ty Frank say having one loose thread rather than 50 storylines unresolved is not the worst case. In that vein, what a great and entertaining show. Each character we've encountered in the series has been so compelling. However, I can't help feel that not getting to see more of of the protomolecule is a bit sad...that storyline is so epic it deserves to be told on screen in my opinion. It's what propelled and really hooked me on the show. Here's hoping that there may be more Expanse on our screens at some time in the future! .

@padanfain7466 2 года назад

Completely with you on this one. Season 2 and 3 were breathtaking from start to finish. That being said, S4 S5 and S6 were great additions to the story and shone in their own light. Guagamela(S5e04) was probably the best episode of the show.

Pete, I have a HUGE request. Since the next 3 books won't be made anytime soon or at all, I will most likely read the final 3 books to find out how it all ends with the protomolecule. I know that the tv version differs from the actual books. Many characters are different like Drummer and I am sure that Dawes and Alex are probably still alive. Can you make a video that would help the tv viewers transition to book 7? It would be nice to understand how and why book 7 characters are portrayed. I know this is a big request, but it would be one reason for you to make an extra video on The Expanse, and you would be helping a LOT of folks... Either way, it's been a hell of a ride, and you added to my enjoyment of this series. Thank you, Jason

I know the producers have said the end is not an actual end but a pause of sorts, there is still a lot of story to tell and I think they've mentioned a Laconia spin off. But my favorite scene was the Pella beginning to cross and the entities waking up, it was like a big predatory animal being swallowed up by a larger predator.

Knowing that we likely weren't gonna get a resolution to the protomolecule story, my biggest hope was that every character arc would wrap up well. Even with the limitations placed on this season, I think that happened.

I like that the Laconia storyline was included in this season. It would have been too abrupt to just not have anything this season that calls back to the protomolocule thread of the plot. It's a nice, bite-sized bit of content to remind you that it's still lingering out there and "stuff" is going on. There's be no way to try to tie up that thread in this season; it takes 3 novels to explore what happens in that regard. So I was satisfied with what they could include. It was also pretty clear where a whole bunch of $$$$ got spent in the VFX budget this season. Wow, all those battle scenes were really well done!

During the negotiations Holden was wearing a light blue coloured shirt, his attire stood out against the others and their darker colours, They were also all sitting around a round table, much like King Arthur's knights, of which there were also 12 delegates at the table. His lighter colouring was (maybe) also symblolic of him being a Christ-like saviour, a unifying figure, with 12 disciples/12 delegates representing the various factions of humanity. Overall this was a fantastic ending, but, still, (gulp) an ending. So for now I am ready to sign another petition to get some other network to take up the saga with the last three books ... anyone?

A selfless act based on good conscience can hopefully change another's life for the better & be reciprocal. A ying/yang of circular benefit already has occurred just as Holden has often given others a 2nd chance proving he is correct. On Filip we disagree. He changed his name from Inaros to Nagata. Thats not "going on your own". Thats assuring his savvy mother will find him. This is not over btw.

This final episode was everything I hope for, great battle scenes, conclusion to the current character plots etc. The great bonding over dinner was a good way to bring in the additional of new members of the family as well as current, similar to the earlier seasons when they were fewer (Alex would be proud). The space battle was just amazing and following up with the assault on the ring station, all the chaotic and hero moments were there. Naomi moment when she thought she had killed her son was powerful, literally can see her face holding back waiting to burst and when it did happen burst out in emotional horror. She will never actually know that Filip is alive, but its a burden and a new start for her as she carries on with her life. The conclusion for the new independent organization was well played by Holden, know this is the best way to actually serve the people. All in all, the entire series just got better and better as it progresses. Sad that season 6 was short but still within the short time they had it was handle well. Currently this is definitely the best Sci-Fi tv show out there and most realistic one in my opinion. Really sad that we won't be getting any more stuff, and its gonna leave a gap hard to fill. Still hoping in the future they continue the storyline on tv. Thumps up*
