The Expanse S2E11 Review: "The Monster and the Rocket" Enright's Betrayal, Holden's Obsession, and Naomi's Choice

Karen, Lou and Jesse are talking "The Monster and the Rocket," praising its strong writing and character dynamics. The hosts discuss Holden's protomolecule obsession on the Rocinante, the crew's shifting priorities toward rescuing Naomi's team, and the reveal of a stowaway on the ship. They highlight Chrisjen Avasarala's uneasy alliance with Bobbie Draper and Cotyar, including the moment Bobbie learns Cotyar's role in her son's death, and they analyze Mao's smug retreat as power shifts. A major focus is Sadavir Errinwright's complex arc—his awkward scene with his son, his murder of Mars' defense minister via a capsule, his destruction of the Ganymede pickup ship, and his ultimatum to Mao and Avasarala. The episode's most emotional sequence centers on Naomi, Melissa, and the Ganymede evacuation, including Champa's sacrifice and Amos being tranquilized.
