Put a Lincoln in your life

This episode is a Lincoln centered one, as Clarke and friends will try to bring him back from his state, while the threat of the Grounders attack hovers above them all. In Mount Weather, sleazy people continue with their shady things.

This episode is a solid one, even if the pace slows down. A big part of it is about the possibility or not of bringing poor Lincoln back to humanity, while also thinking about a way to make peace with the Grounders. The chance of bringing the Reapers back would be an upside, not only because of it by itself, but because the Grounders would be thankful. A pact would be beneficial for both sides, as the Mount Weather people have their own potent and dangerous arms. In this respect, "The 100" does a good job of showing everyone's options, opinions and motivations, and why Finn's acts have had repercussions. The show's decision of making him a little bit nuts is a strange one, because he wasn't a violent character, but we can accept that love can make people do very very stupid things.

Will Grounders and Ark people be able to unite and assault Mount Weather? It may all depend on a person. Or maybe they will come up with a last second plan... Nice storytelling at work.

A decent episode.

Story gets progression, interesting plot and subplot. I am sure this is going to be good.

Trivia
The title is a quote from Nietzsche: "Whoever fights with monsters should see to it that he does not become a monster in the process. And when you gaze long into an abyss the abyss also gazes into you."

Goofs
Laxa, Indra and other grounders just saw that Lincoln is unconscious and Abby gave him an electrical shock twice so he regained his consciousness and recognized Octavia. They never knew that Lincoln had ever become a reaper, so why would take what they saw as a proof of Clarke or Abby curing reapers to be become to normal grounders again.

Quotes
Thelonious Jaha: Place these three into custody, but make sure that they are ready to leave with the rest of us within the hour. Right now, Major! Or the blood of everyone in this camp will be on your hands, too.
Dr. Abigail Griffin, Major Byrne: Major Byrne, Sergeant Miller, put Chancellor Jaha in the stockade.
Major Byrne: Yes, Ma'am.
Thelonious Jaha: Everything we did to survive, you're just throwing it all away. Why?
Dr. Abigail Griffin: Because I have faith, too. In my daughter.
