I Am Become Death

"I Am Become Death," an intense episode from The 100, ramps up the stakes with a mix of suspense, action, and emotional turmoil. The fallout from Murphy's return to camp after his banishment sets the tone for the episode, immediately injecting tension and uncertainty into the group's dynamics. The spread of a deadly virus adds a layer of chaos, pushing the characters to their limits as they grapple with survival.

The pacing is fast and keeps viewers on edge, with several well-executed action sequences. The episode does a great job of showcasing the group's desperation and the harsh realities they face on Earth. However, some plot points feel slightly rushed, particularly with Murphy's reappearance and the rapid spread of the virus, which could have benefitted from more exploration.

Character development, particularly with Bellamy and Clarke, continues to evolve, but certain relationships and decisions in the episode feel underdeveloped given the high stakes. Despite this, the episode succeeds in building tension and setting the stage for future conflicts, even if it sacrifices some depth along the way.

Overall, "I Am Become Death" is a solid entry in The 100 series, packed with action and emotional stakes, though it stumbles slightly with pacing and character development.

This episode is ok. Delivers fun, good reference, new storyline that starts and ends in one episode.

Murphy's back! He was taken in by the Grounders, who tortured him. But he run away and asks the 100 for help. They take him in, without knowing that he's not alone, as his body is infected by a virus. The people in the camp have to think fast, as many are getting infected, and the Grounders are planning on an attack.

This last episode of "The 100" doesn't say anything about what happened in the Ark, keeping the viewer on the edge of their seats, as they will be wondering if the people up there are alive or not. The pod that arrived to Earth crashed, and no one seems to have survived. Is Diana and her people dead?

The episode centers on the sickness and the imminent attack by the Grounders. The young people in the camp are inexperienced, and even if they have guns, they are still little puppies in the hands of the Grounders. Clarke continues her fall into militarism, becoming even more aggressive than Bellamy. Good show of how fear and the need of survival changes us.

On the down side, people with bleeding eyes don't make for much fun, and the I-hate-you-why-are-you-taking-my-boyfriend looks by Raven are becoming a little tiny too much.
