Episode Review: "Pyre" — Power Plays, Secrets, and Survival

Karen, Jesse, and Lou discuss "Pyre" (season 2, episode 8; 18th overall; aired March 15, 2017), calling it a tense, transitional chapter largely set on Tycho. They break down Amos's unsettling behavior and friction with Alex, noting hints tied to a Baltimore connection and a family photo, while Lou avoids spoilers about his larger arc. They highlight Prax's tragic introduction, the loss of refugees, and the shocking spacing of a woman close to him, plus the hopeful clue that his daughter may still be alive and connected to Dr. Strickland. The hosts debate extremist faction tactics, Fred Johnson's eroding credibility, and Drummer's decisive retaliation, and end on concern over a major secret Naomi keeps from Holden about the protomolecule.
