![]() I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: space kind of sucks. The newly appointed Security General wants her on his team as he embarks on a job he surely never saw. So, let’s see: we have a geneticist on Ganymede doing lord knows what with protomolecule and a little girl we have Fred Johnson who, let’s be honest, has next to no chance of maintaining control of Tycho we have Naomi keeping a massive secret from Holden and we have the leader of the Belter rebellion in control of a protomolecule scientist who’d be happy to let it loose on, I dunno, say Earth because that would be of high scientific value. Chrisjen Avasarala finds herself back at the table where the fate of the Earth is determined. Amos is a subtly complex character, perhaps the most complex character on the Rocinante, and it’s a pleasure to watch his story spin out slowly over several episodes, as opposed to in one big info dump. He relents at the last minute, and asks Alex not to push it, because if they fight, “Who’ll pilot the ship?” It’s clear that Amos doesn’t want to kill Alex, but will if pushed - it’s equally clear that he’s not happy about what that says about him. Alex, aware that Amos is acting strangely but misunderstanding why, confronts him about it, which leads to Amos nearly killing Alex. He spoke frequently with Cortazar, who’d had his ability to feel empathy literally burned out of his brain, and related to him a bit too easily. He understands that he’s not wired quite like other people, and while normally he’s totally cool with that, it’s started to bother him. In between all the secrets and lies (and bullets) being slung around Tycho is something just as unsettling: Amos is coming a wee bit unglued.
