![]() ![]() This opening sequence had me thinking that he was actually turning his hatred and ambition inward - the purposeful neck prick, the flashback voiceover with Avasarala being totally unhelpful, it is all a set-up for suicide. ![]() I told y’all That Mu’fucker was up to some shit. But before we get to that, we have to talk Errinwright, or as I call him, That Mu’fucker. Alex has some of the sleepy songs all set up in his Spotify. Once you’re yelling at your pilot to fly a ship through an ag dome while you machine gun wisps of blue goo…maybe it is time to take a step back, have a cup of decaf, and chill. Not to say it isn’t pretty well earned, I mean dealing with aliens can get kind of brain melty, but still. But with Holden's girlfriend still kidnapped (as far as he knows, at least), these are far from normal circumstances.Sorry to break it to y’all, but I think Holden has lost his actual mind. Under normal circumstances, the Zmeya's detonation wouldn't sit right in Holden's mind, and he'd be frantically searching for something he missed. The Rocinante captain witnessed the planning and organization of Marco's Protomolecule heist first hand, and has been through enough to know when a situation smells fishy. It surely won't be too long before Holden realizes what's happened. Without the Protomolecule from Tycho, Marco would also have some very angry Martians knocking on his door looking for their promised prize, and the Free Navy would fall as quickly as it rose. Thanks to his cunning, however, such drastic measures weren't needed, and Marco only had to sacrifice a single ship to trick his enemies. Marco would fight tooth and claw to retrieve it, not play into Holden's hands by blowing it up. Whether he plans to use it himself or, as Monica suggests, give it to Mars as payment, the final splodge of blue goo in The Expanse has a value beyond numbers. It's inconceivable that Marco would willingly blow up the Protomolecule he worked so hard to attain. Holden has yet to pick up on this anomaly, but it's highly likely that the Protomolecule on board the Zmeya was smuggled away when the rockets were fired, hiding in plain sight and then shooting off to Marco while Holden and the gang were busy handling the many, many bombs coming their way. ![]() Curiously, this little sucker also doesn't head in the Rocinante's direction. In this scene, eagle-eyed viewers would've noticed one of these rockets glowing blue instead of emitting the fiery yellow light of every other missile.

Has Marco just sent his precious Protomolecule sample up in flames? Not likely. The two ships engage in a vicious dogfight and the Roci wins decisively, but before Holden and his team can board the enemy vessel, the Zmeya explodes. ![]() Due to the nature of its mission, the Zmeya must travel slow to avoid detection, and this allows the Roci to catch up. Holden is able to undo the damage to his ship and quickly sets out with Bull and Monica in pursuit of the Zmeya. But Marco's carefully-laid plan is disrupted when Naomi warns her crew about the sabotage job performed on the Rocinante. ![]()
