    The Mormon "first time?" thing always reminds of the bit in Airplane! when the old woman asks Ted if he's nervous, and after he replies in the affrimative, she follows up with "first time?" and his response is "no, I've been nervous lots of times".

    Elias Toufexis, the actor who played Kenzo, the spy with the eye, did a cameo for another UA-cam reactor, "Funny Lil Gal," and told how he had originally auditioned for Amos. He clearly didn't get the part, but they liked him enough to create the character of Kenzo. He said that normally, he might harbor some resentment and animosity for the other actor who got the role he wanted, but as soon as he saw Wes Chatham, and how he played the role, he knew that they made the right choice. Wes *was* Amos Burton.

    Because of the population restrictions the Mormons were looking to migrate from Sol to Tau Ceti - a single G-type star about 12ly away. Owing to its similarity to our star, it has always been a popular candidate/host for life in various scifi tales and when The Expanse was conceived/written, there were believed to be as many as eight planets, including two possible super-Earths that fell within the theoretical habitable zone surrounding Tau-Ceti.

    Dang you're doing an amazing job of analyzing the show. I got a sort of 'drift' of what was happening but not as concretely as you're doing. Amazing work really I've never seen anyone see the issues and backtrack what has happened so clearly with The Expanse. I'm even more excited for the rest of the series with you now.

    As the team entered the Blue Falcon, the spy Kenzo's eye showed that he had gotten a connection and had reported their location. The response visible in his eye was that the "tactical team" (Errinwright's black ops team) was on the way to the Blue Falcon.

    I loved this episode. It was so happy and surprised these people joined up. I was expecting it to take a few more episodes. And then I felt so gutted at the end. I was so sure they would either find her alive, or find the next clue to her. I remember thinking… “now where is this show going?!?”
    Have fun! There are still so many highs and lows and amazing things in this show… and as you work through the seasons, keep in mind this was cancelled. We thought we were only getting 3 seasons, lol.

      wait, what? this show was canceled? yeah it was really sad when they found her dead, I wasnt sure what to expect but part of me wanted her to be alive so that Miller could prove to her that he was a good guy, but I guess then the story wouldnt be that much fun.

      @@andiecph and then it got cancelled again at the end of season six. There are still three more books that we all SO badly want to see be made. But those are a 30 year time jump, and they ended season six VERY well, yet kept it open if another studio wants to do those next three seasons. It’s doubtful that will happen, so you may want to consider reading the books.

    First of all, I enjoy your reactions! I love how you are theorizing and it is funny to seen you rejoice that you got it right about Mao's alias. 🤣 That being said, I personally liked it when I found my theories were wrong because I would discover how this show is so much original that any sci-fi shows before it.
    Secondly, the story of the series starts to move faster with this episode. There will always be setups and a many new questions will arise as answers to old questions will come forth. But you will always be surprised and always will be shocked! Enjoy the ride! 👍

    There is no government-operated police department on Ceres. I realize that is a bit hard to fathom, but that'a the story. The policing was sub-contracted to Star Helix, a private corporation. We have way less info about Eros, but we did hear that announcement that "CPM" handles security on Eros, so I think it would be a good assumption, until we are handed facts to the contrary, that CPM is a private corporation policing Eros as the result of a government contract.
    The OPA does not officially run the police dept. on Ceres. Star Helix, Inc., does, at least in theory. It just has so many adherents of the OPA working for it that, in fact, the OPA controls the policing of Ceres. Miller told us early on that there was "no law on Ceres, just cops".
    I am unaware of private corporations getting contracts to operate local police departments in our real world, but I have heard of prisons being opertated for profit by private corporations in many states here in the USA. It is supposedly cheaper due to the private corporations paying non-union wages and benefits.

      The various stations are not the territories of any government, they are the properties of corporations, thus they have their own security forces. And unlike the current political environment on earth, there doesn't appear to be any "interplanetary law" that the stations would fall under. Earth and Mars enforce their own separate policies for their own benefit. Belters must navigate them all.

    • @suedonym8467
      @suedonym8467 9 місяців тому

      ​@@kirkdarling4120 Yes and no. Ceres Station is nominally governed by the UN (Miller and Havelock visited the governor's office earlier in the season). They outsource security there to Star Helix, an Earth-based company. That's in contrast to Tycho Station, which is directly owned and operated by the (Earth-based, surprisingly) Tycho Corporation, and Ganymede Station, which is jointly governed by Earth and Mars. But yeah, Belters usually get the short end of the stick, whatever the org chart looks like.

With little else to distract you, your brain pay closer attention.
