I loved how they fit in some of the book lines in this episode. Wasn't sure they would be there since in the book they aren't actually spoken to anyone.
Sounds like 4 episodes left. They said the show doesn't end on a cliffhanger and leaves the story open (which suggests they finish book 3), but I'm trying to figure out how they resolve book 3 unless they really trim a lot from it.

Ah cool. So from my memory, book 3 primarily has
Everyone gets stuck in slow zone
People trying to get Holden because they think he is guilty
Holden gets on the station in the middle, slow zone gets slower
Belter Mutiny plot
"Melba" gets recognized as the mastermind
Mutiny resolved
All the Stargates open
The Mutiny seems out of place for just 5 episodes left, but it is critical in order for Melba's partial redemption which has rammifications for later books

They already cast Basia from the previous season and they showed Katoa this season. So if they were follow the pattern of finishing the next book and going from there mid-season, they can already do that.

At least she actually TRIED it this eps.
She's definitely gonna need to work on it since there's gonna be a whole season about her shitty vagina choices.
I hope they bring Jared Harris back as Dawes too... his creole is like the bar everyone had to aspire to.

I love how the show asks at the start "... so why didn't the ship also crumple and fold like the belter kid did?" Fucking space magic boys!!!
Such a tense episode, I was really sorta expecting the show to reset and slow down a bit and build back up to the season finale but nope they are going in HARD.
So the blind cameraman was the insider who fucked their ship up and sent out that fake broadcast and stuff which probably means he is working for the asian chick who blew up the science vessel, but I wonder if he knew that means he was gonna die too or if he got duped into going along. Wonder if we'll see a confession from him next episode.
people also have been giving steven strait (holden) a lot of shit for bad acting, "space jon snow", etc but I thought he killed it this episode
Fucking love Miller so much

Yeah I chuckled hard at that head shake from Miller and the look of satisfaction when he pulls his hand back.

It's actually cool that they leave ambiguity about whether Holden is having hallucinations about Miller in the show. In the book they clearly describe the
whenever he sees Miller. I'm sure that'll come but it's another layer of tension that IMPROVED on the source.

Saw a few comments about the Miller representation from the reddit. Holden never met Miller when he had his hat so that was an intended clue that Holden wasn't hallucinating, but they did do the bluish aura in the background while in the airlock. Something special might happen if he ever takes off his hat.
