I don't think Blink is dead. They wouldn't have it be that ambiguous if she was really dead. She disappeared into a swirling vortex. RIP Sage though. I don't think she's coming back from that.

Matt talks about tonights episode in an EW article. I'd post it, but its spoilers in the title.

Well, well, well. Finally, the true cost of siding with the inner circle is revealed.

Any member who’s been supporting reeva now has friendly blood on their hands. Sure, they may not have known exactly what she was up to. But when you choose to side with someone who keeps secrets and maintains control through order and fear, you share some culpability in that actions of that leader.

Very excited to see the fallout of this episode. I could see lots of rage and finger pointing coming between the characters we know as protagonists (both those in the underground and the inner circle).

Yeah, Sage is gonna be a sacrificial lamb of sorts...

I wonder if The Frost Sisters, or at least Esme, suspect the truth at all? Maybe even to the point where she's protectin' Lorna. I kinda got that impression a lil', throughout this episode.

Let’s say they were protecting her, they still let “bleep” get punished instead. I don’t see how that’s very defensible.

For the sake of the cuckoo’s conscience and potential redemption, I hope they had no clue.

I think Esme is. I think she's been protecting Lorna. Their relationship is important to the next couple of episodes I believe Emma, and Nix said.

Where do you guys read these interviews and stuff? Personally I’d rather avoid them bc I feel it spoils studo.

Well, I didn't say it was defensible, but perhaps... understandable. When the stakes are this high, sacrifices will be made. Especially when we're talkin' about Esme Frost. Besides, suspicion =/= confirmation eXactly, there's a fine line there.

Yea I was just making a comment in general not necessarily about your thoughts on it. More piggybacking than responding.

When I see morally grey characters in stories like this I like to keep tabs on the decisions that make. Basically to see if the choices they make balance out for better or worse. It’s all subjective of course but ultimately it helps me form an opinion on who I can forgive and who I can’t.

I see them on Twitter. I don't post them though, seeing as how, like you said they can spoil things to come. Sorry if I spoiled something!

You’re fine. I expect to come across some spoilery things in here so it’s my fault. I always apprdcits it being kept vague whenposoble though so thanks for that.

Ooh, then, that's gonna be AWKWARD. Per S1, we know Polaris & Sage had a fairly lengthy history, and were pretty tight. I believe Tessa was a drug addict when Lorna came across her, and she helped get her clean.

It's all good, no worries. I'm with ya, some dirty deeds are filthier than others, and can't be so easily overlooked. Both Esme AND Lorna can try & wash their hands all they want, but they'll never be fully blood-free, such is the way of the warrior.

Nice episode. Actually, great. Best of the season for me. Everything was done gracefully.

I was shocked with both scenes (you know which), but they were both well done.

I just read an interview, and just realized the events of 7/15 are based on:
