Worst writing I've ever seen Bellamy's actual death scene in 7x13 was horrendous writing, some of the worst in television history. But, the aftermath of his death is just as terrible. Clarke says that she didn't have a choice in killing Bellamy, saying "I tried everything, I promise." Well, that's a lie. We see everyone, including Octavia & Echo, immediately accept the fact that Bellamy HAD TO die. No questions asked. Octavia barely seems phased by the death of her big brother, who helped raise her and is a huge reason for her being alive up until this point. She just tears up a little and hugs her brother's murderer. Later we see her struggling to cope with seeing the fighting pits again, when she should be struggling to cope with Bell's death, just next level spiteful writing. Echo, whose entire character arc this season was practically just killing any and everyone who stood in the way of her reuniting with Bellamy, tells Clarke that Bellamy "found meaning in Cadogan and that meaning killed him, not you." It's an absolute slap in the face to all fans of this show. You didn't even have to like Bellamy to understand how terrible the writing in these past two episodes has been. Murphy even has a line that makes no sense and seems to have been added simply to spite Bellamy, saying he watched Bellamy manipulate Raven every day on the arc for 6 years. What a joke. Every character has acted extremely out of character this season & especially in 7x13 & 7x14.
Gabriel's senseless death was another absolute joke in this episode. We see a white villain who should've been long dead just gut a minority character to death. Then as Gabriel is bleeding out on the ground, Clarke and most of the others just casually talked about Madi and barely even acknowledged Gabriel until he was on his last breaths.
The episode ends with Murphy and Emori possibly getting the same deaths as Jaime and Cersei in Game of Thrones Season 8, with them dying to a collapsed ceiling. The preview for 7x15 shows Murphy likely survives it, but won't be able to save Emori. Another terrible death scene for a long time character on the show, sigh.
Jason Rothenberg might've thought he got the last laugh on Bob and their behind the scenes differences with the character assassination of Bellamy Blake in S7.. but he instead ruined the integrity of his show and ensured he'll struggle immensely to ever book another gig after the conclusion of The 100. Congrats Jason, your show's lasting legacy will be the fact it had the worst final season in television history, even worse than Game of Thrones. Who's laughing now?
