I love the moment between Bellamy and Jasper because I see both sides, Jasper not wanting them to work so hard to save everyone and just live in the moment whilst telling Bellamy that no matter what he did, that he shouldn't beat himself up about it because he did it thinking he was doing the right thing but now he should focus on the present, on the now and what he wants. I can really see Jasper trying to get through to Bellamy but Bellamy will always carry the blame and guilt everywhere he goes. I also see Bellamy's side, he wants everyone he loves and cares about to survive and live, including Jasper and that's why he's fighting so hard so that they'll all survive the death wave.
I don't think either Abby or Clarke were okay with using Emori, you can see that when Abby goes to inject Emori but stops and says "I can't." because deep down she's really not okay with any of this or what they have to do survive and the same goes with Clarke, you could see it on her face as Murphy is screaming at her which is when she decides that she's not going to do that to Emori, not because Murphy would kill her if she did but because she doesn't want Murphy to lose the one he loves and that's why she is selfless and bears it so no one else has to and injects herself, ready to sacrifice herself.
I may not be a mother but I understand Abby and why she chose to destroy the machine, she didn't want to watch her only child, sacrificing herself and the possibility of it not working.
also, the blonde girl that approaches Bellamy is the same girl that Bellamy is seen with in his threesome in season 1. Her name is Bree.

1. Octavia didn't just get stabbed Froots... That sword went all the way through... And then yeah.. She fell about 20 meters down into shallow water... Yet she's already walking around.. Riding a horse (and getting jiggy with some Grounder dude for no good reason other than this was produced by a guy) ...This is the epitome behind the saying "TV Show gotta TV Show"
2. The bunker Raven and them are at have 5 Levels Froots... Levels that are most likely all just as big as the one we've been seeing this entire time.. Not enough for 500 people to live.. Keep in mind they would need to grow food and stuff somewhere for however many years they'd be stuck down there.. That takes up space too... Also 500 people in that small bunker? All the air will be gone within no time.. Long before they could get out ....Luckily though as you were able to see in this weeks episodes.. They found another bunker
3. How the hell is this fancy house still standing completely untouched??? ..And how is the power still running?? ...And where did all that food come from?? This place doesn't make sense
4. Yup.. I agree.. But it's a CW show Froots.. Ofcourse Octavia is gonna substitute trynna kill herself with banging this Grounder dude ...It's a bad trope that I'm fairly certain we've seen done before on other CW shows
5. Soooo what? ...These past 8 episodes took place over the span of 4 months? ..In the Season 3 finale we were told Praimfaya was 4 to 5 months away or something.. Now it's only 10 days away... Time flies fast ...I suppose it has to with the seasons having only 13 episodes but it does seem awfully fast
6. Not that I really care for the character or anything.. But.. Opting to try out the cure on Emori is a disgusting move.. Using "We're trying to survive" as an excuse?? ...If Clarke and them had ANY decency they would try it on themselves first and not grab the first Grounder they can find ...Absolutely disgusting
7. "I bear it so they don't have to" Props to Clarke to go there (again) and test the cure on herself instead ...If she hadn't.. And Emori would've died... I'd have been all on board with John hunting Clarke down ...Again.. Not that I particularly care for Emori... But I'm agreeing with John's stance that he'd go after Clarke if Emori died ..I wouldn't hesitate to do the same if some idiot went after someone I cared for ..I've got nothing to lose and I suppose John wouldn't either if he lost Emori
8. I mean I get it.. Abby doesn't wanna lose Clarke.. But now we don't know if the cure works... Nice job dumbass
9. Ok... What kinda metal was this coin made out off that half of it just melted within 5 seconds while also changing the colour of the fire??? My money is on bullshitium
10. Soooo... Turns out their salvation was underneath Polis all along... Awkwaaaaard

I agree, im so pissed the prequel wasnt greenlit. It was going to be so good.

The difference between Mount Weather and this is that Mount Weather was killing the people they drained of blood / bone marrow. Clarke and them aren't killing Luna. Had they gone through and tested it on Emori they would have been just as bad as Mount Weather though.
I REALLY like Clarke and Roan's relationship. It has always been so genuine.
I don't think Abby smashed it because it was Clarke. I think it was because she had the vision of Clarke dying from it. Had she not had that vision she probably wouldn't have smashed the testing tube.
It's Abby though. She probably still would have.
This episode makes me a bit sad that the prequel series wasn't greenlit. We could have learned a ton about all the Grounder lore that Gaia strictly follows.

I dont blame Abby, she was protecting her daughter and even though its hypocritical, im sure any other mother would do the same.

With the comparison to Mount Weather, the difference is Mount Weather had other options where as this group doesn’t really. Mount Weather could have kept using the treatments they had and it even Kane said in the finale they would be willing to donate the bone marrow so no one had to die. Yet they chose to kill the kids anyways.
Another thing is they didn’t kill Luna. They (until finding the bunker) had no other option. The reason they picked Emori was she is the one that essentially made them kill an innocent person. Granted, Emori was doing what she thought she had to survive but still. No one can excuse Abby’s actions though. Truly hypocritical
