It was a great episode. The anecdote that Peaches told to Amos’s friend was way deep. Naomi’s struggles are real af holy poo poo. She’s such a fantastic actress.

Really loved the reveal at the end of wtf was going on. The whole last 20 minutes was wondering whether I'd missed some obvious thing about what the hell she was trying to accomplish, and a small voice in the back of my head telling me "No, it'll become clear, don't worry"

Super curious to know what you think a greaser is. Greasers were a 50s fashion thing. Big hair with tons of product, jeans, leather jacket, etc. You've seen them in movies a billion times or Fallout or whatever.

Also a derogatory term for a person of Latin American ancestry. Up to us to decide which one the OP meant here! Stay gold, goons.

I have never heard of this and it doesn't seem like it's been in use for a century, so I'm gonna take that the OP meant what everyone else does when they say greaser instead of always bad faith assuming the worst from everyone.

I've only heard of greasers in the 50s rockabilly context and as a catch all for mechanics. The guy who told Holden about the message kind of look like a bit from column A and a bit from column B, but I didn't take that close of a note of him.

Man, it seems like they still have a lot of ground to potentially cover in just 2 eps. It is a 10 ep season, right?

I fear for my Camina. I feel like if the bullets start flying she could be a killable character. Just hope she goes out suitably like a boss. Heck, she could even go out anticlimactically. Got some nice Dr. Strangelove shades in this ep with the military characters calling for nuking civilian targets. I think I've heard quite enough from you, General Turgidson. Some good 'what would have actually been a good moral response to 9/11' type thoughts.

I never knew that was Amos’ real name until last episode. I felt like I must’ve missed or forgotten a whole backstory episode. So what is his story? He was named Timmy, grew up an orphan in the poo poo with that friend of his, and got asked to either kill his friend or kill a guy named Amos? He did the latter and took off with his name?

There's a whole episode that centres around that story, season 5 episode 2.

I was rather confused by Naomi struggling with the grate and it falling back down. The ship... isn't under power, is it? The drive sure as hell wasn't burning at the end of ep7.

They were spending so much time showing her doing "something" but I couldn't see what the purpose was. I finally got an idea of what she was doing when she stripped the wire and grounding it started muting parts of the message. Still have no idea why she was marking tallies on the wall. It could have used at least some exposition to give us a hint of what she was doing instead of just showing her going into that hallway over and over again and failing.

I figured the marks on the wall were because each time she's trying a different junction box or wire and she's keeping track to save time.

It served a dual purpose - one, to help her keep track of how many times she had done the job - but it was actually more important as a dramatic device, to show the viewing audience how many times she did it so they didn't have to show every single time to communicate that she did it a lot. As for the confusing nature of what she was doing, that was just (imo) good writing. Lay a mystery (that has a definitive answer) and let it reveal itself in the course of the episode. Sure, not everyone will agree, but I appreciated the willingness to bring the audience along for the journey and have them try to piece together what was happening as a sort of narrative device to appreciate what was going through her head without overt exposition. I think it would have been far less effective and much more frustrating if they saved the reveal for what she was doing till the next episode.

Both ships were under power when she made the jump, the ship she's on is absolutely moving. Yeah, I'm glad they also didn't have her talking to herself or something to get the plan across because they assume we're idiots.

If both ships were accelerating when she made the jump, then they should have accelerated away from her and she should have disappeared into the void. I'm pretty sure they were not accelerating, because dead old guy just stayed floating there, he didn't collapse to the floor.

It's more likely they had it with a set flight plan as soon as the two ships got far enough apart. At the end of Episode 7 (44:30) it is not under thrust, but at the beginning of Episode 8 (07:05) it is under power.

They probably sent the ship off to accelerate after they left it. It probably wasn't accelerating at 1g either - Naomi was severely weakened after the vacuum exposure, the grate probably wouldn't have caused her as much trouble at full strength. Besides, even when weightless (this obviously wasn't a weightless situation, but still) the grate still has a considerable mass and therefore inertia, which makes it more difficult to move than, say, a feather.

If the ships were accelerating when he died, he would have collapse to the floor because he would stop holding himself up and the floor would move up while he stayed at the speed he was going when he died. The fact that he's still standing up shows that he's in zero-g.
