Speechless, Commander Lexa Takes The Spotlight

[Harun_Karali · 10/10 · 5 February 2016]

The episode revolved around Lexa, Showing us that she can think on her feet. Showing how thick her backbone is by pushing an ambassador off a cliff and declaring war on the Ice Nation. We didn't get to see Murphy this episode and to be honest I didn't even notice until I got to the end of the episode. Don't get me wrong I have nothing against the character, On the contrary I admire his relentless pursuit for finding a home. It's just his story isn't as interesting as Lexa's.

Maybe in the future, the show could make a few episodes going into Lexa's back story, showing us how she became who she is. Or better yet maybe a spin-off? I know a lot of folks who wouldn't mind watching Alycia Debnam-Carey, I know I don't.

Spoilers...so don't read if you want to be surprised

This series keeps getting darker and darker which in turn keeps getting better and better. I love how the first scene of this episode picks up where episode 2 left off with Clarke and Lexa in Polis. Eliza Taylor and Alycia Debnam-Carey are fantastic yet again in their portrayals of their characters. Lexa proposes a generous offer to Clarke and her people to join the 12 clans as the 13th clan in the coalition. I think that was so brilliant on the director's part. Also, when Lexa kicks the Ice Nation clan's ambassador out the window was a great way to start off the episode. Her line afterwards was perfect and so badass. The next scene that I loved was when Roan talks to Clarke with a proposition for her to help him kill Lexa with a knife that he puts in her room. I could tell that Clarke does not trust Roan, but she is still mad at Lexa for her betrayal. So I wasn't sure what she would do. Kill Lexa or not kill Lexa? I loved the position Roan put Clarke in. The ultimate decision that could have some serious consequences. My second favorite scene of this episode was when Clarke put a knife against Lexa's throat and then Lexa apologized to Clarke. Such great acting! Now I have to talk about the assassin with the white paint and blood on his face. I would have never guessed that he was at Mount Weather! What a mind blowing twist! I love surprises, but killing (almost) everyone at Mount Weather again seriously jerked my heart. Those poor farm station people. Anyways, my all time favorite part of this episode was the very end when Lexa bows before Clarke. To me, this was the most significant moment in the episode. Lexa respects Clarke as an equal of her own standing. The fealty that was presented will probably be important in the episodes to come. As for the Ice Nation and finally getting to see Queen Nia...you better not kill Lexa! Let the war begin! #The100 Can't wait for next week's episode!!!

A better episode.

I never thought any of the first few episodes of the season would be this intense. The story is good, eventhough Ice Queen's motivation seems like a cheap villian. All others are good.

Incredible episode!

[nheljeegarcia · 10/10 · 8 March 2016]

This episode captured Lexa and Clarke's feelings towards each other in a very emotional and captive way. I love how Lexa is starting to loosen up herself and bowed to Clarke and swore fealty to her. I also loved how Clarke expressed her frustrations and hatred towards Lexa to the point that she wants to kill her but deep inside she knows that she doesn't want to. I think that the knife scene fully captures Clarke's feelings for Lexa. Clarke was furious, hurt and hopeless. Lexa's betrayal hurt her more than it would have if she had not caught feelings for the Heda.

Gina's death was painful to watch, and Raven suffering was just a punch in the gut for me. I loved the interactions with Bellamy and Octavia, and with Raven and Gina. Echo's turn out was a huge twist this episode, clearly Bellamy trusted her and she broke his trust. It's going to be hard for him and his relationship with the grounders seeing as he have been betrayed by one.

Beautiful episode 10/10.

I love Lexa

[pariisaap · 10/10 · 11 September 2021]

I luke the character of Lexa . She make the series more interesting.

Keep in mind; Clarke is Lexa's people now. And Lexa would do anything for her people

[Neptune165 · 9/10 · 22 September 2022]

Lexa on her knees for Clarke is my favorite moment on the show, it was so unexpected and meaningful, a Heda can't kneel to anyone, but she was so desperate to prove to Clarke that she was telling the truth and would never betray her again that she knelt down, it was like she was making an unbreakable promise, she really loves Clarke and betraying her was her biggest regret. The "Last Mountain Man" is Carl Emerson, the guard who in season two was briefly captured and held in an airlock in Arkadia (then known as Camp Jaha). One line many people missed in the season two finale revealed that he and Cage were the only two left who had the bone-marrow treatment, thus explaining why he is now the last Mountain Man. I don't know if you can tell but there something between Clarke and Lexa. Lexa really like Clarke a lot and I think she's genuine about it. Love this episode. Yet he is the last mountain man. His the one that They captured and then let him go to give them a warning. Lexa is genuine about her feelings. She betrayed Clarke, but it was in the name of her people as commander of the 12 clans, and yet that is still her biggest regret. Fyi - Lincoln (Ricky Whittle) is from UK and Marcus (Henry Cusik) is from Peru ❤ and a good majority of the 100 "teens" are Canadian.

Veryyyyy gooood

[meshalr-87638 · 10/10 · 12 January 2021]

The episode is very beautiful as the beginning of the season of the third episode. I see it good to excellent .... an episode that deserves to be highly rated and praised

Total BS

[cvejicaca · 1/10 · 5 September 2016]

Had to write the review cos of the BS in this episode (season 3 episode 3). Grounders didn't know how to use technology and all of a sudden they know how to destroy mouth weather with a self destruct code (that is later lamely explained how its possible).... Would be more believable that they killed everyone with knifes, or even that a missile malfunction and caused this. You can't just weaken the sky people (ark people) cos you want to but didn't think of anything better to do then blow them up Michael Bay style. This is clearly done just to weaken supplies and defense to extend the story, classic cliché. Don't get me wrong, i like the series but this is just plain stupid.

More Questions

[robert_mccammon · 2/10 · 5 February 2016]

I keep hoping. I have written several of these reviews; each one hoping desperately that this series will become what I think it can be; and now I am disappointed again.

1. Alisha's character is awful. I get the dynamic that she was a person who her own people would have killed; but she can't see that they betrayed an ally. Wouldn't her 'Warrior Code' that she picked up in mere hours say 'to the victor goes the spoils' when it comes to the mountain? Nope. Bad writing. Bad. Bad.

2. Clark's mother (that seems to be the depth of her character) is out of place. I can't put my finger on exactly what is wrong, but there she is, very awkward.

3. Clark. The Clark show. Writers... I get it. She's a lesbian. Girl power is an overwhelming theme here. Extravagant hairstyles after the apocalypse.

4. Is being dirty a chic part of Grounder society? Funny thing. There don't seem to be any farmers so is this just a stereotype thing?

5. The 30 minute long song in a poorly made up language was horrible. Where exactly was this siren? Next to the elevator? In the 'throne room'?

6. DUMBEST MOMENTS. The infiltrator has shot after shot of him going through pointless (completely) rituals, preparing him for his mission of... wait for it... PUSHING FOUR BUTTONS.

I do understand that this is a show not suited for a deep thinker; however it would be nice to see a little depth in the writing. Visually speaking, the show is okay. Costuming is tired; there is no evolution from the Mad Max 80's video look. The acting is not bad; I believe Marie Avgeropoulos is doing a really good job with really bad material. Ricky Whittle is simply a prop. It's a CW thing. Clark is truly unlikable; unlike Marie, I believe that it is more than cheesy writing; it is that they have here as some prop for societal change of perceptions. The problem is that their endless desire for this is greater than the story and the character.

All this and I keep watching. What is wrong with me?

Love what Lexa represents as a non-heteronormative female leader. Hate that her word is laughably worthless.

[CG17RH13 · 5/10 · 12 March 2024]

What I love: Lexa, a non-heteronormative person is a leader of many factions and wholly respected and revered by her people. Obviously fantastic! Additionally, Clark's bisexuality has not been compromised by the network, nor does the world in which she exists make a thing of it. She just is who she is. Also obviously fantastic! Willow, in BTVS, was not afforded the same dignity by the network and was forced to be one sexuality or the other. Such a shame that it has taken so long for each person's sexuality to be as normal as the sexuality of heterosexuals and not to be the defining characteristic of who they are - at least in TV and movies anyway - but still great that it's finally happening.

But, as one of the first non-heteronormative female leaders on TV, where it is not discussed, it just is, they should have written her better. They should have given her the opportunity to be flawed but in a way that made sense. Instead, they made her flaws senseless. Let me explain:

As part of the truce in season two, the Grounders and the Ark were going to take down Mount Weather together. Clarke killed Finn, the boy she loved (and regardless what people think about Finn the character, Clarke did love him), to ensure that truce and the mission to save both their people from Mount Weather. The Grounders were tortured and used by the Mountain Men for over 50 years, yet Lexa broke her truce with Clarke for the release of the current Grounder prisoners. Clarke would not have had to murder so many innocents were it not for Lexa. Clarke couldn't even forgive herself for that act, she exiled herself from her own people (who she saved with that excruciatingly difficult act) because of the overwhelming shame she felt. Lexa's life is on the line and she's proven she'll do anything to save it, including kneeling before Clarke and swearing fealty, which she didn't even do in public. All is forgiven because Clarke is now Lexa's "people" and Lexa will do everything to protect her people? Um remember when Lexa left her people to die by missile strike in season two? Of course she claimed she did this exactly so they could WIN the war together against the Mountain Men. Speaking of, how many of Lexa's people died in that missile strike vs. How many people did she "save" when she betrayed Clarke and the Ark? Lexa's "strategies" for protecting her people change faster than the speed of light and her word is worth absolutely nothing.
