This episode was formidable, just like our witches.
I loved everything about it!
Let me start with Abigail and that speech. I was hoping it would take that turn. It was great to see her acknowledge their dynamic and their progress. Beautiful.

And then Tally. I really enjoy how we're seeing her truly struggle with what happened in ep 8.
We see that even a trained soldier like Anacostia is struggling with Alder's decision. So it's only fair that Tally is taking it so much harder.

Moving on to Petra - I loved her scenes. I've always wanted to see more of Petra (and to see her be a better mother to Abi, which I feel like she was this ep). I can't wait to see her fight for control more. She's much more...

...military-minded than Alder herself, and bringing her into a higher position of power could then, for the show, signify going deeper into the military aspect of this witches society. And I'm all in for that!
#MotherlandFortSalem

Which brings me to Sarah. I was very disappointed with her last episode, but this week she was great! I loved getting to understand her a little bit more and finally seeing how she remains in power.
So far, this is what the show was missing for me...

I needed more of an explanation to the whole "Alder is super powerful and has been in charge for 300y"
And we're finally starting to get it - from the trailer it looks like we'll learn more about her past too! I'm so excited!

I can't wait to see her authority challenged further and her fighting for it. And I really want to see flashbacks (might not happened but it'd be so cool!) of her childhood. Show us how it was like for witches, what Sarah's pov is when dealing with all this.

And finally, let's get to that heartbreaking #Raylla scene. Beautiful. The talent, woman, the talent!
Broke my heart, but I love how they're using the angst. It's not just for the sake of it, there is sense and logic to it. Of course Raelle...

...can't just believe and forgive Scylla.
Girl lied to her and was gonna give her to the enemy. Not so easy to just get past the terrorist thing either!

But I love that we see the complexity of their feelings. It's not even a question...
#MotherlandFortSalem

...whether they still love each other, of course they do, but love is messy and complicated and it doesn't always mean you can be together.
I adore the evolution of their love story.

In conclusion, this episode was phenomenal and I need
@Motherland renewed asap!!

@FreeformTV @hulu come through! #RenewMFS
#MotherlandFortSalem

And yeah, I didn't talk about Anacostia 'cause I could write an essay about how much I love her and not be done. My woman

I love that her character arc is going towards putting her cadets first
