The Tinder Box Recap-Review

I am afraid that this will only be a quick recap-review of The Tinder Box as I was getting sick the day the episode aired, and because of that, I had lost energy.  That is very sad as I love writing the reviews, and especially when it was an awesome episode.  I am feeling a bit better, but due to the type of illness that I have, I am temporarily deaf.   But, I promise that the next one will be back in its glory.  So here is the recap-review of The Tinder Box.  *Will contain spoilers from the episode. Reader and viewer discretion is advised.*

 

The Tinder Box Recap-Review

What a fabulous episode!  The Tinder Box gave some really brilliant and top-notch performances, dynamics, and one-on-one character interactions.  Season four is proving out to be quite substantial and thrilling and always bending the rules.  Yet, when has The 100 not broken any rules?  Alright, I am just going to put the highlights in bullet points, then write a paragraph wrapping up my feelings and reactions about everything.

In conclusion, The Tinder Box was an emotional episode, and luckily, nobody died.  My reactions took a fast roller coaster ride with this, as I am sure it did for everyone.  I feel sorry for the majority of the characters as they have to constantly fight, but seem to go a few steps back.  There is always that small window of hope, and I believe that is why they’re trying so hard to live.  My one thought thought is why did the Guard let Riley come when they knew that he was so unstable?  He could have made a mess out of everything.  I was semi-happy that Clarke’s radiation was not real, but that had to scare the flying crap out of Abby.  Clarke is her pride and joy, so that had to been horrible for her.  Also, the expression on everyone’s faces when Arkadia was engulfed in flames, and that Titanic-like score playing was just shattering.  I don’t think Ilian will be forgiven for his crime as he placed lots of people in danger.  Well, even more danger.  Yet, he was also very mentally traumatized as well, and they may have blocked of what he was doing was wrong.

I enjoyed everything about The Tinder Box, from plot to parallel to compassion, despair and hope.  And, I want more!

The 100 We Will Rise will air tomorrow night.  Don’t miss it!
