Yeah, as much as I love Drummer I don't think they were wrong to leave. Drummer did put her feelings for Naomi ahead of those of her actual crew/family. Camina did it for the right reasons, Marco was always going to betray Drummer and her crew, but it would probably hurt my feelings too realizing that I wasn't as important to Drummer as Naomi. Someone that most Belters see as a Welwala, inya-loving, sell out.

2025-02-07 02:21:15 +0000 UTCBesides the off screen reasons for Alex's death, he stroked out because of constantly doing Hi-G burns. They telegraph it many times throughout the season and over the show as a whole. Hitting the juice during burns can only do so much eventually exerting yourself like that will kill you and that is what happened to Alex. RIP to a great character. I feel bad for Drummer, she is always losing people. It hurts to see her constantly in pain. Also good to understand that all the folks on her ship weren't just crew they are family and kind of like polyamorou commune. As much as Oksana, Drummer's like wife/second and command feels like she was betraying Drummer she was looking out for the whole crew and Drummer did in fact betray them for Naomi. I agree with her choice but I don't begrudge their wanting to leave.

2025-02-07 01:39:14 +0000 UTCI think it was a crew member or maybe a community member for some event. At one point I think they showed the content of some the texts and it really just painted him as a obsessive scumbag who couldn't take a hint. Feel bad for the person Cas inflicted his creepy bullshit on, he tainted the good character work he did on Alex and ruined it for us all.

2025-02-07 01:31:48 +0000 UTCThe scene where Bobbie rescues Naomi is so effective - the decision to solely focus on Naomi's face with only muffled sound was brilliant. And yeah, that ending...I read it three times in the books and couldn't make heads or tails of it - it's just as perplexing in the show. BTW, Lake Winnipesaukee is an actual large lake in New Hampshire - it means "beautiful water in a high place" and historically has been a vacation and camping destination. Stupid useless trivia: it's also the site of the first intercollegiate sporting event in the US, a rowing regatta between Harvard and Yale in 1852.

2025-02-05 15:15:28 +0000 UTCWhat annoys me to this day is how little to no information came out. I do NOT advocate for the behaviour he was accused of. I just miss the character of Alex and his portrayal, and I also despise "convictions" without due process. "Inappropriate tweets" could mean so much, it's just vague and I wish we had answers... DONKEY BALLS

2025-02-05 11:54:25 +0000 UTCI love when Erich asked her why Timmy calls her Peaches and the way she just says, "I don't know," makes me chuckle every time. đ

2025-02-05 10:34:10 +0000 UTCThe two people that left Drummer didn't leave to go to Marco, they just couldn't call themselves part of Drummer's family/crew anymore since Drummer knowingly sacrificed one of them to turn on Marco. That's the way they saw it and is why she'd asked Drummer beforehand if she loved them as much as Naomi. What Drummer lied to her about was that she loved them as much as she loved Naomi. That's why they left.

2025-02-05 10:32:49 +0000 UTCAmos doesn't have a moral compass. He proved that a couple of episodes ago when he went after that hermit to take his stuff. He's a survivor and he shifts automatically to that mode when he doesn't have a North Star like Holden or Naomi to let him know what the right thing to do is. He's a good guy because he wants to be a good guy and he chooses good people to be around that guide him. That's why, when Peaches told him that going out of their way to kill some guy and take his stuff is not what good people do and he said, "Yeah, Holden would never have approved of something like that. I need to get back to my ship," or something to that effect. There is always pushback to people who give him moral advice, but he eventually defers to their judgment if he perceives them as good people. Apparently they said that his ability to gauge right and wrong for himself was burned out of his brain as a child from the trauma and growing up the way he did.

2025-02-05 09:20:33 +0000 UTCI'd heard that some female co-workers had some complaints with him also, but never heard any details. Just that there was an investigation, like you said, and they let him go, so they obviously found enough evidence to let him go.

2025-02-05 06:57:14 +0000 UTCAlex was killed off, because the actor sent inappropriate tweets to female fans. There was an investigation by the production company and they felt like they had enough evidence to let Cas Anvar go.
