The Expanse season 5 ending explained. Deep dive into what the end of the season means for the characters and the rest of the series. Please subscribe! - http://bit.ly/PetePeppers

The season finale of season 5 of the Expanse wrapped up the show’s penultimate season. Amazon Prime announced that the show was renewed for season 6, but it will be the final one on the streaming giant. The fifth season was one of it’s strongest with the Roci crew spread out, and Marco Inaros’ terror attack causing chaos in Sol system.

The ending of season 5 sees the crew of the Rocinante back together, and exposes who Marco’s secret Martian collaborators were. In the final episode the crew lose a member when their long time pilot Alex Kamal (Cas Anvar) dies. He was rescuing Naomi Nagata (Dominique Tipper) with Bobbie Draper (Frankie Adams), and suffered a stroke from a high-G maneuver.

Amos Burton (Wes Chatham) and Clarissa Mao (Nadine Nicole) have escaped Earth, and he convinces Holden to let her ship with them. She tried to kill him so it shows how much he trusts Amos.

Camina Drummer (Cara Gee) defied her Free Navy orders to destroy the Roci in episode 10. Marco Inaros’ (Keon Alexander) crewmember Karal was aboard the Tynan with Drummer, and she was killed by one of her crew named Michio. This saw their husband Serge spaced in retaliation, and that split the Drummer faction.

In the season 5 finale Marco and his fleet had a decisive victory in the battle for the Sol Ring Gate. With a coordinated attack that involved Sauveterre’s breakaway Martian fleet, and control of Medina station the Free Navy was able to dominate the Outer Planets. Sauveterre and the other Martian ships transited the Laconia Ring, and the protomolecule had already been delivered to Laconia.The Barkeith disappeared when it tried to transit the ring.

On Luna, in Season 5 episode 10, Chrisjen Avasarala (Shohreh Aghdashloo) is Secretary General again, and she’s declared martial law for Earth. She tries to keep morale high at a party, but the attack on the Sol Ring interrupts. She watches with James Holden (Steven Strait) and Bobbie as the breakaway Martian fleet leaves the system. Holden tells her that Marco probably paid for the Free Navy Ships with the protomolecule sample.
