    The way I take the easy embassy escape scene is the fact the Martians never saw it coming. The embassy was on earth, all staff would be vetted and would most likely be hardcore fanatics. The guards were there to dissuade the UN from doing anything rather than keep anyone inside the building. So when Bobby just casually walked out they didn't question it until she got suspiciously close to the embassies border with the UN.

      Yeah, and it's also not like all the Martian actions with the protomolecule is fully sanctioned from the government.

And they probably think it's no chance in hell that she would run to the UN, knowing her history as a full on Martian patriot.

    The embassy escape scene was fine. Bobby was under orders to remain in her room. It's not as if the entire embassy was instructed to watch her. She's a Marine. From her CO's perspective, the order was sufficient. The worst she'd done up until that point was botch an interview and go look at the ocean.
    The guards at the gate were only alerted after her treachery was discovered, likely after one of the officers she knocked out woke up. The guards only got the call after she'd already left the building.

    The Roci team doesn't know anything about the Protomolecule hybrid. They don't know what happened on Ganymede.
    Nerdy is right that Mao's motives are ruthless, but he's already chided Errinwright for being nationalistically short-sighted. Mao had already told Errinwright that he'd be looking for another client.
    There have been a couple of clues that Naomi has a kid. In CQB she mentioned someone she'd never had a chance to say goodbye to. And she knew entirely too much about how children were monitored; when Prax asked her if she had children, she denied it entirely too abruptly.

    The surprising thing is that both the "walk-out-of-embassy" defection, and the "pick-up-and-throw-again" the grenade, have happened MANY times in recent history. I watched a video of a Russian soldier doing the same stuff with a Ukranian grenade dropped by a drone, for instance, I know that has happened a lot in Iraq too. And the defection of an ambassy personal happened several times during the cold war.

    According to the Expanse wiki, Mei has Myers-Skelton Premature Immunosenescence. Based on the name, I'm assuming that it means that her immune system barely functions at all, which explains why she needs daily treatments. The disorder also means that her body won't fight off the protomolecule like a body with a functional immune system would, which would make it easier for the protomolecule to bond.

      (2) pg. 10 The game "focuses on the period between the first and second novels of the series."
      They are probably okay for spoilers since book 1 ended with "Home", but I'm not completely certain. (And supplemental materials beyond the rule book might reference other books in the series.)

Naomi denied it in a way that made it obvious that she indeed had children. Also, remember Naomi saying that she didn´t get to say goodbye while the Donnager was being attacked, and remember also that she (...)? Or Naomi´s near despair when she couldn´t convince that little belter girl to escape Eros with the gang.

    You can't keep getting endlessly caught up in the potential logistics of embassies and where bodies of water are.
    This is set in the future. It has nothing to do with the security measures of modern embassies, and Bobby wasn't on house arrest. Her supervising officer Maartens wasn't necessarily following all the rules either. Confining her to her quarters was just an order, and she's a marine so they're not expecting her to defect.

    “Slingshot time” - If you look closely, The Roci' had already started a trajectory line, which it then backtracked when Alex said “No engines”. It then waited for any other commands/filters ("just thrusters"), before restarting their planned trajectory. - It's another one of those "little things" the SFX team didn't _have_ to put in there, but am thankful they did.

    The fact that all the children suffer from exactly the same genetic disease and the accompanying inability to make certain proteins almost certainly indicates that they are more susceptible to infection by the protomolecule. Or rather their body doesn't actually fight the infection and can enter into the hybrid state. As opposed to most people exposed to the protomolecule whose body fights the infection until they die and are consumed (cf Eros).

    Bobbie knocked Martens unconscious, so figure (at best) ten minutes to regain consciousness and another minute to get to his feet, and who knows how long to be able to talk after that throat strike. The guard will be unconscious and likely concussed after his head slammed into the wall hard enough to leave a blood-stain behind.

      Reality is that if you hit someone hard enough to knock them out, chances are they’re going to need serious medical attention.
      Bobbie is the kind of skill set where if she wanted him to not get up again he wouldn’t.
      Likely she aimed for a “needs medical attention to recover.”

    The Expanse has a huge advantage that Game of Thrones did not... everything they filmed for the series was already published as a book and the writers on the show (which included the book's authors) already had pathways marked out for them. You could tell with GoT that as soon they got past where George R.R. Martin had left off and they were in charge of the story things started falling apart plot and character-wise.
    This isn't a spoiler to say but The Expanse stuck the landing where GoT did the equivalent of snapping an ankle.

    Also, S3 is probably my favourite season of television in any show. Every episode is incredible.

    I don't think Bobbie was formally under house arrest; I think Martens just told her to stay put and kind of expected that she would. They might have posted a guard on her room, but I don't think the whole place was on high alert or anything. I think this actually tells us something about Martian culture. Martians are pretty obsessed with duty and following the rules is something they're raised with to the point that it's just assumed that people will, because defying the government's instructions (or those of a military superior) would be completely antithetical to the Martian character. So, given that, Bobbie probably had a reasonably good chance of escaping provided she was quick about it. The notion that a Martian Marine would dishonor themselves by disobeying orders is probably hard enough for them to conceive; the notion that a Martian citizen would voluntarily relinquish that citizenship is practically blasphemy. I just don't think either of these is something they would be trained to deal with.
    And also, Bobbie may well have known that the embassy guards would (as one of them said) not be authorized to fire weapons outside the embassy's grounds, and that they wouldn't dream of violating that rule, no matter what. So she probably had a pretty good chance of walking out of the building, and a better than even chance of being out of the reach of the Martians by the time she was detected.
