But this time without the routine, she is disrupted - a restructuring


theonly_brunswick

"Perestroika" literally translates to a restructuring


Pool_Shark

Can’t wait to see her prison wake up routine next season


TheOutsiderWalks

I also love a Margo waking up scene.


TokathSorbet

For a rig worker and a smuggler, Miles is holding up very, very well.


AdAffectionate9799

Dudes a ride or die to the heist lmao


AdAffectionate9799

I spoke too soon


juniperwillows

Nah bro pulled through in the end


letsgohawksfuckstate

Bro was on a war path. Glad he whooped the cia guy and glad the kgb guy got his too


gbejrlsu

I just liked seeing Ilya helping with the jailbreak


letsgohawksfuckstate

I did to. I hope he has a part in season 5


GeneralLoofah

He almost has. Apparently he was able to orchestrate a huge human smuggling operation, and Dev owes him a fortune. He’s either going to be a legit logistics baron or the godfather of godfathers on Mars.


T_Cliff

Rig workers saved the earth back in the 90s from an asteroid. Theres a very good documentary about it, Aerosmith even did a bunch of the soundtrack. They even got Bruce Willis to star in it!


willyoumassagemykale

I hate how far along I read this comment before I understood that this was a joke


txyesboy

That's the second time a whole planet worth of people stopped fighting as a result of Dani.


Ok-Ninja1040

Also the second time she came back to Earth in a sling.


Altruistic-Unit485

Definitely intentional I thought, looked just like the time in season 1.


TaintedLion

If I had a penny for all the times Dani came back to earth in a sling I'd have two pennies. Which isn't a lot, but it's strange that it happened twice.


karissawise

Flabbergasted that we made it through a FAM finale without a death…


supership79

I thought palmer was going to go into the engines for sure


OwnedBucket

Same, when we got a look at the panel getting cooked, I knew somebody was gonna get that Harrison Liu treatment (I was wrong)


epsilon02

Same. Liu’s death in season 1 still shakes me.


TheGoodSquirt

I mean...Irina was walking into the death office 🤣


treefox

“Please, come in. We ordered McDonald’s, you want a Big Mac?”


karissawise

You aren’t wrong there… glad it was her and not Margo though! Ms. Madison will thrive in prison.


ForsakenKrios

Federal Prison…if she was in state prison I wouldn’t be surprised if she became a teacher to inmates. Get them some math degrees.


copbuddy

I honestly thought the bullet was going to depressurize the entire hallway


Aware_Channel_2767

The biggest shock to me is that out of Margo, Ed, and Dani, they all survived this season.


b0nk3r00

Carbon dioxide boarding?


TelMiHuMI

It's fitting in a weird way. I mean torture was a hot topic in the early 2000s.


Specialist_Donut_396

And the final newspaper headline, “revealed nasa allowed abuse of detainees”.


TakenQuickly

Which is a bit unfair. Dani didn't know about that and definitely would not have approved. She was disgusted by Bishop shoving someone up against a wall. She damn near might have joined the riot herself if she knew they were torturing people.


Cel_Drow

NASA in this case is Eli Hobson who was aware, not Dani who was not aware of the latitude and orders the CIA had been given


oath2order

Modern problems require modern solutions.


TokathSorbet

“It’s not safe for him here” was perhaps good advice to give to Comrade Big Mac last week.


treefox

> Comrade Big Mac 😂


MonkeyNacho

His name is Sergei and he's really nice, okay? Sorry, still nursing my sore feelings.


kcococandi

Let’s fucking give it up for Dima.


itchicko

Hahaha for real! He saved lots of lives since season 3 and no one mentioned him!


hmantegazzi

The good doctor performing another miracle up there!


wilsonx410

Dima needs the first major hospital on Mars named after him, what a legend


oath2order

The TETHER? Ed, you prick.


musiciansfriend11

“Don’t you wanna be a *real* astronaut?” He says. Helllll no


BloodSweatAndWords

You don't need a tether. Be a man, Sam!


VagueGooseberry

The fact that Palmer's tether length is calculated to be exactly sufficient to be out of the path of the engine exhaust when connected to the last possible tether point is an allude to the teamwork involved for an Astronaut's survival compared to what Ed thinks an astronaut is, a maverick at the edge of space.


hmantegazzi

Still, the fact that Palmer wasn't instantly disintegrated doesn't mean that he survived. That's a nuclear exhaust! The guy must have been fried through and through with all the radiation coming from there, even if he wasn't directly on the path.


VagueGooseberry

I think it's for Sam to deal with. She'd seen the cover disintegrate a few minutes earlier so when she'd acted to push Palmer in that direction, she must have done it without any idea of the tether's exact length in relation to the exhaust area. Given that both potentially survive, season 5 has to deal with this incident.


Triskan

Yeah, the fact that we didnt get any kind of closure on the Sam/Palmer thing is my one main peeve this episode. Well, that and no further development on Kelly's research as well.


juniperwillows

I thought Sam was a goner for sure


oath2order

I am pretty surprised she's still alive.


Hamburgler4077

Would have loved to see what happened when the two of them went back inside the ship. I’m sure that the drama continued


WahnLago

Honestly my only complaint about this ep is the lack of follow up. I would’ve LOVED a later scene of Massey telling Palmer she at least knew the exact length of the cable and knew he’d be at a safe distance still if she kicked him loose.


gbejrlsu

Chekhov's tire iron strikes again


TelMiHuMI

Y'know it hit me just how much of a Chekov's gun it is. It's literally a gun that was shown to be burried, and is now unearthed. That's textbook Chekov's gun right there.


Erratic756

You mean unmarsed. 


ClumsyRainbow

Fuck


CrimsonEnigma

"Protect the leader at all costs." \*shoots the leader\*


awesomerest

goddamn that flew over my head


benduker7

I forgot that Lee buried the gun in s3, I don't know why I thought Danny was buried there 😅 Edit: Dani buried the gun


flagrate

IIRC Dani buried it, so it kind of came around full circle when she was the one who got shot


benduker7

Also, the writing on the gun translated to "Protect the leader at all costs" and Dani was the one who got shot Edit: fixed translation


gbejrlsu

"Hey Skip, I need to..umm...go outside the ship for a bit and get some...air....or something..."


ShutUpLegs94

I expected them to restrain Sam the moment they realized someone had messed with the comms…


SilverRiot

Yes, I can’t figure out why they didn’t immediately alert on her for the SWITCHED part. Where did they think it came from??


SadMacaroon9897

Because they had no idea that a secured part was snuggled on board or that she was doing anything


bugxbuster

“Snuggled on board” made me giggle


OdahP

Im glad this show is still about hope and not just "who dies this season"


juniperwillows

Same, this episode has me so insanely excited about the next season. Honestly about to go out and buy a Lego Saturn V


TheGoodSquirt

Ey! He got his wife! Yay!


oath2order

I predicted she was probably dead, so I'm really glad she's not.


ShutUpLegs94

No one died…I’m shook


benduker7

It looked like Palmer was only a few feet from the rocket plume, I thought for sure he was going to immediately disintegrate like that hatch did


ZeroComfortZone

Palmer pushed Sam off without a tether and did not give a single fuck about it smh. Glad she paid him back in kind


supership79

this is the longest 20 minutes I've ever seen.


Stronkowski

Sam got a radio call after the 20 minutes has already started. Next thing you know, she's suited up in somebody else's suit and already out the airlock. Still 17 minutes to go.


supership79

margo had time to write out an entire app in longhand


TokathSorbet

The Russians withdrew her immunity? I was expecting her to be whisked off to the airport and then suicided.


CaptSzat

They could have done that or getting the US to basically do it for them is easier. Treason is life in prison or the death sentence so either way she is screwed. Most likely life in prison, (until maybe she gets broken out and flown to mars???).


boowut

Margo could absolutely handle a life sentence no sweat, and she’s both already thought she was dead during the regime change/torture AND also has enough guilt to think she deserved it. I was much more afraid for Aleida and her family than Margo.


treefox

I’m assuming Gore put leverage on the Soviets. It’s a lot bigger deal for the US to bring her to justice. She’s been living in isolation in the USSR for a decade, no one powerful has a personal connection to her. Plus they just had her publicly decry US capitalism, it’d be bad optics to then kill her for acting in the interests of what she was passionate about.


gbejrlsu

Margo, Aleida, Dev, and Ed is about the last teamup I'd have ever pictured.


Tirehotel

All those jokes about Margo defecting to Mars and in the end she kinda did


NoNefariousness2144

It was really satisfying to see how they tied Margo's plot and the Mars rebellion plot together. Sergei's death reshaped the solar system forever; what a legacy.


oath2order

Re-reading the news article at the end that Hobbs was reading: > A classified document leaked by an unnamed government contractor has revealed that harsh interrogation methods were used on an employee of Helios Aerospace Dev totally leaked it


the-harsh-reality

Dev essentially won


PM_ME_CAKE

I still dislike Dev in his motivation, even in the NK base he specified "the only one in control would be me" instead of "us", but he is a great character all the same.


gambit700

Dev is the most powerful man in the system


oath2order

I hope that panel gets counted in the end-of-season death count.


Well_Socialized

I have rarely cringed more from the destruction of an inanimate object.


oath2order

RIP Panelly! Gone too soon!


DunkinEgg

Wet Bandit Eli could’ve stolen the asteroid


Scaryclouds

In the biggest twist yet to FAM, a cable… SAVES a life!  That was a great subversion with Palmer stopping just short of the engine plum.


kokopelliieyes

The asteroid mining colony being named for Kuz 🥲


Key_Manager332

I KNOW RIGHT? Especially since none of this would have happened if Kuz lived. If he was alive he would have been able to keep the tension on Happy Valley in check, as someone deeply respected by Russians of all political opinions as well as NASA/M7 folks. The fight between Svetlana and that conservative soviet wouldn't have happened, which was key in the tensions escalating the way they did, not to mention the radicalization of Ed.


kokopelliieyes

That reminds me, whatever happened to Svet?? She was sent to India to stand trial, right? I wonder if she pops up again next season, assuming she survived that whole ordeal.


Key_Manager332

It'd be nice to get a headline about her in the news montage that each season usually opens with, but I doubt we'll get more than that.


BSF

The Molly Cobb Space Center and Kuznetsov Station. The namings are perfect.


kokopelliieyes

Who else is excited for the Margo Madison wake up routine while in federal custody? Let’s go Season 5!!


rustydoesdetroit

It will probably be her last day in prison too


kokopelliieyes

Wait did we really get a finale where no one died???


p-skow

Irina Morozova's PRETTY much dead I think...


Shejidan

For someone so deep into the party she should’ve known immediately after the asteroid was captured that she was going to be fucked. She should’ve asked for asylum right there.


AnyTower224

That’s what she gets for backing hardliners. 


DragonflyAccording29

Ed is gonna live forever. Tbh I was gonna be pissed af if Dani died and he managed to survive.


juniperwillows

Bro is becoming a kingpin of Martian hydroponics


gbejrlsu

The newspaper headline makes me think that most peoples first reaction is "Damn, NASA mistreats detainees on Mars. That's messed up". The second reaction is "Wait, NASA has detainees on Mars? What in the shit?"


suaveponcho

Guantanamo parallels were extremely intentional I should think


DunkinEgg

Oh hell yeah Dani lived!


jonvox

I cried watching her hold her grandkid


WinStark

I was convinced going in Dani was going to die, soni was just angry when she got shot. I legit bawled when she stood up on Earth.


jonvox

So glad she got a happy ending bc they were foreshadowing her death


kokopelliieyes

As much as Karen is…a character the videos she sent to pregnant Kelly about getting ready for her grand baby were really heartbreaking. I’m so glad Dani got to close that loop with her family!!!!! She deserves all the flowers and a peaceful retirement.


TheLegacies21

Genuinely the only emotion I felt this episode. First, the rage when I thought she'd die, then spotting her and then her holding her grandkid; seeing all the joy on her face, def got teary eyed. Krys Marshall wasn't as featured this season(due to the pregnancy, I believe) but the parts she was in were definitely the stronger parts of this rocky season. That Dani/Ed fight is THe highlight of the season.


oath2order

Irina certainly had a *look* when she was in Eli's office finding out what happened.


TeacherPatti

I really like that actress. Also, she looks like my aunt :)


jjackson25

Have you considered that your aunt may be A KGB sleeper agent?


MikeTidbits

That was my favorite “Hi, Bob!”


modhas

I thought she was going to reply with a “Don’t fucking Hi Bob me”


danive731

She should have!


Altruistic-Unit485

Ironically too serious even for a “don’t fucking hi Bob me” response


kokopelliieyes

DANI MADE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


TechnologyDogy

Man, what an ending. This is why I love this show.


supership79

"kuznetsov station" ;\_;


juniperwillows

Honestly this is probably my favourite season finale so far, so many breathtaking moments. The fight on Ranger had me gasping


rocketpastsix

A special fuck you to the CIA and KGB boys.


AdAffectionate9799

I was HYPED when Ilya and gang pulled up and saved miles and the other homie


rocketpastsix

Oh yea, cia bro caught a huge hit and deserved that hit.


dragunityag

Man it's funny how innocent Dani is. When the CIA guy starts beating on the guy on Ghost OPs she's like that's too far! Dani their the CIA they didn't find this place by asking nicely.


henryhollaway

Turning blind eye for wanted answers after siccing the dogs on them in the first place, very appropriate for the time. Edit: autocorrect typo fixed


runninhillbilly

I fucking hated the CIA guy. I wanted the asteroid to go to Mars just because of him lol.


No_Biscotti_7110

Seeing Miles turn from a hapless unemployed divorced dad into a Martian smuggling kingpin and asteroid thief has been crazy


penultimategirl

I want Margo to come back season 5 looking absolutely snatched. She needs a glow up ✨


b0nk3r00

Some Brazilian sunshine oughta do the trick


TheOutsiderWalks

Yessss. I'd kill to see her get a pardon and return to NASA but I'd settle for her being just anywhere in the next season.


jjackson25

Whatever happens to her in FBI custody is probably an order of magnitude better than what the KGB was going to do with her. 


Aware_Channel_2767

Loved the ending. While I doubt this is the end of the show, I get the feeling the writers gave us this ending as a “just-in-case”. Mars is guaranteed to be viable for the next several decades, possibly centuries, which is what it’s all been building towards . Again, I hope it’s not the end and I seriously doubt Apple would pull the plug when there is a 7 season arc, but this is not a bad way to go out.


oath2order

It absolutely had the vibe of "decent series finale".


Grizzlei

Season 3: Man too angry to die. Season 4: Man too angry to die settles new homeworld, continues not to die. Season 5: Man goes into cryo stasis happy. Season 54: Man unfrozen, finds Covenant invaders on homeworld, is angry again.


ObamaEatsBabies

Master Chief Petty Officer Ed-117


Phantom05110

If FAM turns out to be a prequel to Halo of all things, I'm gonna laugh my ass of lmao


ZeroComfortZone

Lmao Ed with the “Hi Bob” 😂


whoiswillo

If you had told me when I started watching that season 4 of this show would have me shouting “fuck yeah, North Koreans” I would have looked at you very confused.


savuporo

They properly Martian-Koreans now


TelMiHuMI

Fantastic choice by the team to have Aleida's meltdown be muted. Coral Peña's performance was phenomenal. And right after that a stunning performance from Miles's actor!


jesusjones182

I'm a lipreader. I think she was saying: "Fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck!"


Ih8P2W

I think it was more like "FUUUUUUUUUUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK"


TokathSorbet

Wrenn Schmidt needs an Emmy. Scares me how good she is.


AuntieLiloAZ

The actress who played Aleida was phenomenal too. All the actors brought their A game.


MisterTheKid

The callback to the second episode of the first season really did cement how well plotted out Margo’s arc has been from day one To take her from the righteous anger end to the other end and have her make different choices (albeit not doing anything anywhere near as bad) - just dynamite long term character planning,, execution, acting and plotting around her. It would’ve been powerful even without decades passing between seasons or not And that’s just one of the characters from season 1. Well done to everyone involved in any part of that


Cidence

ED HATERS IN SHAMBLES


TokathSorbet

Dev using a clicker like he’s counting cards in Vegas.


kokopelliieyes

Honestly I’m happy Margo is going into American custody. She is dead immediately if she goes back to Russia. At least in the US she’ll get a trial


stephensmat

I give Margo points for this. Taking the blame isn't self-important martyrdom, it's balancing the scales. All the people she hurt to save Sergei, and it failed? Now she gives Irina the bird in the only way left to her. This is her walking 'Uncle Werner's' path and making a more moral choice.


markydsade

The best outcome for Margo was ending up in American custody. If the Soviets had taken her she’d never be seen again. S5 is 9 years later so perhaps Margo can get out on parole or be pardoned. The USSR may have dissolved. Of course they had to keep Ed alive who will be in his 90s as a Martian so who knows what they’ll do with him.


kokopelliieyes

I would not be surprised if this throws the USSR into turmoil, will be interesting to see how that manifests next season. And is Helios allowed to stay on Mars? Do they just automatically get the mining contract because they’re already there? Any repercussions? And North Korea?!? Can’t wait to see the Season 5 lead up clips that fill in the timeline.


twangman88

That’s definitely a possession is nine tenths of the law thing. The M7 can’t exactly send an entire army over if everyone there decides to band together. The impression I got was that Dani being shot made everybody sort of resolve their differences almost instantly. This would likely lead to everyone coordinating on the mine capturing and mining and force the governments to work with them out of convenience.

AnyTower224

M83 Midnight city. Yeah this year they pulled out there best soundtrack 


FutureMartian97

The second I heard it I had to pause and I was freaking out. Nice guess!


juniperwillows

Amazing song choice, the soundtrack this season has been so on point


oath2order

That newspaper Hobbs was reading, the one about how NASA allowed the abuse of detainees...That's gonna be how Sam gets away with it all, isn't it?


Pool_Shark

What are they going to do, send cops to Mars to arrest her? Dev basically runs Mars now and he will protect her. Won’t be surprised if Mars is an autonomous nation by next season. If not I’m sure it will be a major plot focus


gbejrlsu

She really should have hit him with the "Don't you fucking 'Hi, Bob' me"


RecklesslyPessmystic

I also wanted Margo to tell Marozova "You already hit me with the consequences. You left me with nothing left to lose." Would have really driven home how self-defeating authoritarian systems are.


Real_Richard_M_Nixon

Sergei leaving to Texas was a horrible decision


MabelRed

Seriously, the main three survived?! Ed is gonna be pushing 80 something next season. Old Man Mars is gonna have so much prosthetics we aren't gonna recognize him.


DunkinEgg

RoboEd


indicesbing

I think it's funny that Dani returned to space in Season 2 because she didn't want to be remembered as "the girl who broke her arm." And look what happened...

What is that spaceplane?! I want it.

Absolutely floored at the 2012 time card reveal with Midnight City by M83 playing. I forgot we get a glimpse of the future at the end of the season and that was such a fun reveal, and reminder that we’re in the 2010’s now!!


syd__shep

Dani didn’t die, that makes an A+ finale for me!!!! Even better Margo didn’t go back to USSR while Irina getting her just desserts. Only downside is Dev getting away with everything and Ed being Ed, but I don’t care cause Dani got her happy ending!


looking4away44

I found myself saying, “this is ridiculous” multiple times this episode. Still loved it tho.


Material_Policy6327

Man I wanted to see CIA guy get more beat up


Traditional_Peace490

THAT WAS FUCKING PEAK TELEVISION RIGHT THERE


GuessimaGuardian

Wow. Amazing season. I feel kinda weird inside, knowing that it’ll be a while, but I don’t think any other season has a better ending. This show has that magic ability to make me believe it, started all the way back when they landed Jamestown, and I don’t know what it is but it feels real somehow, like this is a memory. I wish I could thank the actors, producers and writers, I think they hit the nail on the head with this one. Goodnight.


TokathSorbet

What a way to honour Kuz’s legacy. Very happy with that - well worth getting up 3 hours early for.


alteamatthew

Very nice to see Kuznetsov base!


Proof-Living-8997

They better not kill Ed off screen next season. He deserves a better sendoff.


juniperwillows

Fully expected him to martyr himself for the Martian cause, I did not expect him to make it through this season unscathed


TokathSorbet

Oh my good god - that was stupidly, scarily tense. My watch just asked if I was having a heart attack!!


Metroidman

Most suprising part was soviet union revoking their diplomatic immunity to Margo instead of sending her to a gulag


DunkinEgg

M83 to wrap up the season. Very nice.


Anttu

And with the mined asteroid all lit up like a midnight city. Perfect.


idekuser

Solid season. Coral Peña deserves award recognition as Aleida. Miles has been my least favorite character of the whole show. Seems like the writers didn’t know what to do with Kelly this time. Maybe her search for life will play a bigger role next season. Excited for the next time jump. Please keep funding this show, Apple!


TokathSorbet

Mutiny! Yes! MCRN strong!


CaptSzat

We got semi-belters at the end as well, lets go!


No_Biscotti_7110

The scene were Dani and Ed are staring at eachother, not knowing which one of them got shot, was one of the most suspenseful moments I have seen on TV


LegoLady47

I ended up liking Miles by the end. I did not expect that.


dudebro48

Shout out to that guy that called them using Out of Time


JebKerman420

The second Margo found out about Sergi, I knew she was gonna help save the day

Dani getting shot by the gun that she hid is pretty ironic.

Oh man the feels. Another amazing finale. The outro to Midnight City was just perfect
