This scene with Clarissa saving Amos is literally my favorite this season! it was as if she had turned into a vampire from a Witcher and jumped out of the darkness and began to cut this man as if she were a wild monster !
Peaches was right Amos lied about having a water recycler to trade. He was going to take his stuff by force. He's in Churn.-mode and needs his moral compass. Great reaction.
Avasarala putting on her jewelry, reminded me of a wounded soldier donning her armor. Hit me in the feels. Marco is a little bitch. Enough said. The meeting with Marco and Drummer was well done. I loved Drummer's attitude. Fun fact, I read that Drummer was very pregnant at the time they shot the scene, and she kept bumping her belly into Marco as they stood face to face, making the guy who played Marco crack up with laughter. Everything I hear about the on-set experience of The Expanse says it was a great experience working on it. It was a labour of love for everyone. That Josep guy (I think that's his name, the one who said "we are acting like it's a choice, but it's not"). At that point in time, with the events that have happened, and their attitude towards inners, I can understand how they feel. Belters have been underdogs forever, and remember one of them said Fred Johnson was a good man... for an Inner. Belters have prejudices as well, and they are not without justification. This show does different viewpoints well. Clarissa's little poem, and what Amos must have felt while hearing it... good scene. I love how invested you are in Season 5, looking forward to the next one!
I think the show depicts pretty well the trajectory that resistance against oppression takes. The OPA, mostly via Fred Johnson, tried to get a seat at the table but they were still under the boot of the inners. The immense wealth of the belt went to the Earth and Mars, and the same started to happen with the new ring worlds. The situation remaining the same for belters or even getting worse is what allowed people like Marco to rise.
Amos went to the prepper to get supplies. They had nothing to trade. It was pretty much understood he would take his shit no matter what - and here you sit arguing if was justified because he was gonna shoot them, instead of... what? Give them precious supplies for nothing, out of the goodness of his heart? They went to the guy intending to not take no for an answer, knowing he'd mostly likely be a standoffish paranoid guy. They knew they'd be killing whoever was there.

I think it was Bertauld who said the thing about Marco not being a choice.

Marco tried to yank on the chain of command, and failed.
Not a good sign.
