Featured reviews
This episode filled with tough decisions. the story is good and interesting. It finished the plot point of the first 5 episodes.
I think this show is underrated, it takes a few episodes to get good, but it got good by the end of episode 3, great by episode 4, and this is the point where the plot really starts moving forward, alliances are questioned, morals are made more grey, and so many interesting things happen to make it worth watching, can't wait for what's to follow.
This begins the whole Clarke raven Finn love triangle which is beyond too teen drama for me and it runs through most of the season and it takes a bit out of each episode with it, the episode is good but it started a major misstep and made season one weak for it
Finn is really disgusting . Cheating her girlfriend . I like Raven more than clarke.
Raven arrives to Earth, but Bellamy is on a fight against Clarke and Finn to arrive first to her, as he's afraid of the Ark knowing they are alive. But on Raven's chance to contact back with the Ark the lives of many up there depend, as Kane's plan to sacrifice 300 people has been approved. With lives on stake, will they be able to overcome Bellamy?
"The 100" continues to surprise. If in previous episodes they hadn't been afraid of killing off some characters we were starting to care for, while also keeping the tension and not making the series a gore-fest, in this new episode is a fight against time, with many more lives at stake than till now.
Of course, the show can't make us care about 300 people in just one episode, but they go the route of fleshing out some of the people we didn't know till now. One, two scenes, that show they are human as all the protagonists, and giving them the chance to shine makes the threat that hangs over their heads something we will care about. They are not faceless anymore.
Oh, and Finn has a problem, as he now has Ark-girlfriend and Earth-girlfriend. It's pretty obvious some tension will be rising in future episodes between them three.
And just in case we didn't have enough, it ends on a magnificent (even if foreseeable) cliffhanger.

- TriviaThe title of this episode is a phrase from the US national anthem.
- GoofsThe U.S. flag patch on Raven's space suit is backwards. While very few organizations (such as the Boy Scouts) display it as seen, the U.S. military as well as NASA wear the flag patch with the blue field towards the front of the wearer, as if they were facing into the wind rather than turning their backs.
