The Expanse S2E5 "Home" Podcast Review Miller & Julie's Tragic, Beautiful Ending

JKL Media Podcast returns after a week off and reviews "Home," The Expanse Season 2 Episode 5 (aired Feb. 22, 2017), which also completes the first book's arc. Jesse, Lou, and Karen call the episode tragically beautiful, focusing on the poignant finale of Miller and Julie, the reveal that Julie's longing for home drives Eros, and Miller's redemption in steering Eros to Venus, raising new questions about the protomolecule's future. They note the Rossi's high-G chase and crew cohesion, Holden's role in earning trust from Fred Johnson and Chrisjen Avasarala, Mars refusing to help, and political fallout as the UN learns Holden is alive. They discuss protomolecule behavior around the dead, OPA neck tattoos, and rate the episode 9–9.5/10. 00:00 Wedding Geek Opener 01:20 Expanse Episode Setup 02:18 Quick Reactions 06:02 Miller and Julie Finale 10:00 Lou Rewatch Insights 16:33 Roci Chase and Trust 20:15 Crew Moments and Captain Holden 21:56 Trusting Holden Again 23:05 Fred and Drummer Moments 23:58 Avasarala and Arjun Call 25:57 Why She Stays on Earth 27:49 Themes and Worldbuilding Depth 29:15 Loose Ends and New Questions 32:57 Proto Clues and Next Episode 35:12 Ratings and Where to Find Us 38:37 Wrap Up and Farewell
