The 100 season 6 episode 12: 4 hints from this week’s teaser
With only two episodes of The 100’s sixth season left, the conflict between Skaikru and the Primes is reaching its climax. How will things play out?
The last two episodes of this season of The 100 are quickly approaching, and with them, fans will finally see how the conflict between Skaikru and the Primes turns out. This season has raised plenty of questions — including how Skaikru will manage to do better on the New World and what the Dark Commander wants with Madi — and with any luck, we’ll be getting answers soon.
The preview for this week’s episode, however, suggests the sixth season ending will be a messy one. Russell seems less inclined than Skaikru to prevent bloodshed between the two groups, and that could mean some serious losses before the season is through.
Watch the promo trailer for “Adjustment Protocol” here:
Gabriel wants to tell the truth about the Primes.
The Primes hold power over the people in their compound by insisting that what they’re doing with hosts is divine, essentially using faith to trick their followers into submission. Echo and the other members of Skaikru have hinted at creating an uprising by telling the truth, but it looks like Gabriel will actually go through with that plan this week.
The teaser opens with Gabriel saying, “There is nothing more powerful than the truth,” before shifting to an image of graffiti that reads, “False Gods.” But with the people of Sanctum so conditioned to hate the Children of Gabriel, will this approach actually work?
Russell is looking smug as ever.
After Gabriel’s line about the truth, Russell appears in what looks like a different scene. His expression is one of assured victory, and he says, “You’re right.” Then the teaser moves on.
We don’t get much context in regard to who Russell is speaking to or what he’s speaking about, but he looks far too confident for our liking. With any luck, he’s agreeing with one of Clarke’s schemes to undermine him. But with a season finale heading our way, the reasoning could be far more sinister.
Sanctum isn’t taking the high road.
Clarke might have decided to spare the innocent people of Sanctum during “Ashes to Ashes,” but it doesn’t appear that the Primes and their followers are equally as inclined to “be the good guys.” We know that they retrieved their guns after Madi killed a few of their people, and now Russell is giving the order to “shoot to kill.”
Things might get messy during these last two episodes, and it’s seeming more and more likely that fans will see some casualties before the sixth season is through. Bellamy’s face following this voiceover is one of pure concern, so could that be a hint as to who we might lose?
Either Madi or Sheidheda is in trouble.
Madi is still in the Primes’ laboratory at the end of this week’s teaser, and she’s struggling against her bonds and screaming, “You will not get rid of us.” It sounds like Sheidheda is the one speaking here, but who’s actually in trouble?
With Clarke having infiltrated Sanctum posing as Josephine, it seems unlikely that she’ll allow Russell to do any lasting damage to Madi, even if she successfully played nonchalant last week. But is Russell even trying to turn Madi into a host, or is someone attempting to get rid of Sheidheda? We know that Skaikru wants to remove the Dark Commander from the girl, and we can’t see who else is in the shot. It’s possible all isn’t as it appears here.
There are plenty of questions to answer when The 100 airs this Tuesday at 9 p.m. ET on The CW. Make sure to check back after the episode for recaps and updates from Culturess.
