She simply wanted to inflict as much damage and take as much away as she could before Marco caught up to her.Īdd in the bitter snapping and cold moods the Roci crew had towards each other due to Alex’s death and you have quite a bit of anger.įor those without much in the way of real power in The Expanse’s vast setting, all they can try to do is bargain for what remains to them. Drummer never had a plan to really win against Marco. She just could not let go of her anger over Marco attacking people she cares about, though, and her grief over their deaths. On a more rational level, she knew siding with him was the smart play, which is why she initially went along with him. As the ending showed, she still held those dreams of freedom, power, and Belter equality that Marco afforded the Belt. She knew things would never go back to how they were and that Marco accomplished things Drummer also dreamed of for Belters. Season 6 sees him murder a friend out of anger and consistently throw tantrums at those around himĬamina Drummer’s opposition to Marco Inaros also came from deep fury over his murders of Ashford and Fred Johnson, as well as his attempt to kill Naomi. He lashed out at everyone and everything. He was increasingly unable to handle the asteroid attacks on Earth, and his go-to reaction to his grief over it was anger. Filip is the most prominent example of this stage of grief. AngerĪlong with those changes came a lot of anger. Naomi was in a sort of denial over her ability to cope with fighting Belters, and especially the very real chance that Filip would die.Įverything changed, and many characters on The Expanse simply could not acknowledge it. The little girl on Laconia was in denial over the death of her brother. Filip was in denial because inability to mentally cope with his role in the asteroid attacks, and the evil of his father. There are also more personal denials within the season. And even if Earth can eventually heal itself from the damage of the asteroid attacks, its power will be irreparably weakened by the millions of refugees who will leave for something better in the thousands of possible new home planets out there, just like all those leaving Mars for something easier than spending who knows how long terraforming the planet.
Even if they managed to somehow suppress the Belters again, well, they cannot really keep them from going through the Rings.
The Rings opening doomed Mars regardless of anything Inaros did. Earth is in the equivalent of a nuclear winter. They seem to think things can return to normal if they just defeat this one man. The most evident example comes from the efforts of Earth and Mars to restore “order” to the system by defeating Marco Inaros’s Belter uprising. There was so, so much denial among the characters of The Expanse about these permanent changes to their lives.
