Who's the young woman that looks like to be Fred's "2nd in command?" Liked her shouting to the belters before the mission started, also the body language in that scene was incredible.

I'm glad I rechecked the space squash scene.

They were playing without rackets :stonk:

Also, few pages back but

It's "Owkwa". It's on the SyFy page for the Belter Creole 101.

According to the Expanse Fan Wiki, it has it's roots in Finnish.

I checked the wiki too, and as a finn I call utter bullshit. (It's listed there with Finnish roots) No word with the pronunciation "owkwa" in English or Finnish pronunciation or anything near "aqua" or whatever would come close to any word meaning water or any sort of fluid in the Finnish language.

Or any Finnish word for that matter.

Water in Finnish is vesi

I haven't had so many goose bumps for space ship porn since the launch of Mothership in Homeworld 1/2.

Drummer :swoon:

Shame about the Fred's indignation-line being cut from the show. That scene kinda struck me the flaws in Holden's zeal and why that poo poo can be infuriating to other people.
