I watched the previous season like a year ago? So I pretty much forgot what happened, but what I do remember was Sierra found where Professor was. Before we go to the review, I'd like to say that my favorite character was Nairobi but she died last season. I cried a river over that scene, not just cried, I was sobbing, and when her coffin was escorted outside of the bank and it was just sad that she suffered a lot from that guard before she died.
Thank God, Netflix has a recap of what happened last season. When they were shouting "For Nairobi", I was lowkey shouting with them, too lmaoooo.
I'm having a hard time understanding the scene on how that old man got in that red Volvo, 'cause Lisbon's extraction happened last season and I forgot all details of that, but lmaoooo it's so good seeing them get excited because they thought they got 'em, buy they got tricked once again. And how they planned on how to get Marseille out of that situation was just splendid!!
I love it when the Professor says things like this, "From that moment on, everything will change", it makes me curious and excited about what's gonna happen, y'know.
THEY RAISED THE WHITE FLAG
I didn't expect that this time would come, that they'd have nowhere to go. I've always thought that they'd get out of there with the money. Although, even that happened, I still believe that they'd get back on track again, I mean, there still Rafael, right? And what Tokyo said was true, even if it's just 100 hours, it felt like a hundred years because of all the things that happened. But I still have faith though, I think they're gonna get back on track, but I don't have any idea how.
Girl…I really thought that by raising the white flag, they were gonna give up and give themselves to the police.
HERE'S ARTURITO BEING A PAIN IN THE ASS AGAIN
Istg this man is just a flippin' piece of sh-. I don't even remember how many times I beat the sh- out of this man in my mind. THIS JERK WENT IN THERE ON HIS OWN WILL JUST BECAUSE HE WANTS TO BE A HERO AND SHOW-OFF AND NOW HERE HE IS PULLING THE TRIGGER OF A MACHINE GUN WHILE SWAYING IT SIDE TO SIDE AS IF HE'S IN MUSIC VIDEO AND INJURING THE HOSTAGES IN THE PROCESS BECAUSE HE WANTS TO ESCAPE AND PREVENT HIMSELF FROM GETTING KILLED BY THE ARMY? OH PLEASE, YOU BROUGHT THIS UPON YOURSELF! YOU WENT IN THERE! YOU SHOULD'VE REALIZED THAT THERE'S A POSSIBILITY THAT YOU'RE NOT GONNA COME OUT ALIVE! ARE YOU LISTENING TO ME, ARTURITO?! YOU'RE IN THIS MESS BECAUSE YOUR LOVE-DEPRIVED AND SELF-CENTERED ASS WANTS SOME COMPLIMENTS, A VALIDATION, AND A BOOST IN YOUR PRIDE! YOU FLIPPIN PIECE OF GARBAGE. Now, I don't even know if they're gonna believe them if they said that it was Arturito who injured the hostages.
ISTG ARTURITO IS LEGIT STRESSING ME OUT RIGHT NOW. HE BECAME OVERWHELMED WITH ALL THE WEAPONS AROUND HIM RIGHT NOW THAT HE'S JUST GRABBING WHATEVER AND THEN GOES TO HARASS THE GANG. HE SERIOUSLY NEEDS TO BE STOPPED.
Can I just say that this was a very stupid thing to do? You can clearly see that the Professor's not there and Marseille is being quiet and trying to see if something or someone dangerous is in the room. When searching a room for a possible threat, the last thing you wanna do is ask if someone is there, you're just making it easy for the threat to find you and beat your ass before you can even see them. What you're gonna wanna do is sneak and keep quiet and never be complacent when you feel there's something wrong.
At this point, all their problems are piling up, we have Arturito being an ass, they have no ammos left, Denver's bleeding, Sierra found Professor, and the army is going in, girl...it's stressful af. I'm really worried that someone from the gang will die. I mean, I've watched the show for a long time and I've been kinda attached to them, I saw them cry, being happy, I witnessed how they found their true love in the place and situation I didn't expect, how they celebrated, I knew their backstory and what led them to this moment. So whenever they're in a bad situation, I get worried, too, and whenever they lose someone, I feel like my heart's being shattered into tiny little pieces.
THE MOMENT ARTURITO REALIZED MONICA DOESN'T LOVE HER ANYMORE
As what we heard from all that blabbering from him about the time they had back then and the love they once shared. I guess that deep down he still thinks that Monica loves him because of the things she used to do for him and he believes up until this moment that she's still brainwashed by the gang. He believes so much in himself that he thinks Monica still hasn't moved on from him.
And in this moment, he thinks that she won't be able to shoot him because of the love he THINKS she has for him, but when he saw how Monica didn't second-thought about shooting him, that's when it all came to him. That's when he realized that it really is over for him and Monica.
Oh damn, I guess I was wrong? At the beginning of episode 3, he was giving him CPR. Noooo, don't bring him back. Lmaooo I sound like an awful person.
Oh, I think I get why they're reviving him. She’s not reviving him because she still loves him, she’s doing it because back then, they said that they won't hurt the hostages. They are not murderers, they show the people what is resistance against the corruption, mistreatment, misogyny, and any other types of social or government conflict or something like that. They inspired people to fight.
And now that they showed them that they almost killed a hostage, that would make them bad in the eyes of those people. I am so sorry for not explaining this thoroughly, I really forgot most of what happened last season. But yeah, the Professor made it clear to them that they should not kill a single hostage because they are not those kinds of people.
ARTURITO IS OUT
So, his pulse came back and he was brought to the hospital. And tbh, I expected that the police were gonna turn the story around and make it seem like the gang injured those hostages, but you wanna know what I think will happen? I think that Arturito is gonna live and he's gonna look back on the foolishness he did and regret it, plus the realization that Monica doesn't love him anymore and he's not as great of a man he thinks he is will just add fuel to the fire of his conscience. So, even if he's gonna look bad, he'll tell what really happened and the governor will back that up. But who knows, Arturito's a jerk and people don't change overnight especially people like him so I'm not sure if what I said will happen.
OHMYGAD!! NAIROBI!! GIRL, IT'S GOOD TO SEE YOU AGAINN!!! I MISSED YOU SO SO MUCH!! IT'S BEEN A WHILE!! (lmaooo why am I acting like we're in a reunion event or something) I did not expect this but I'm so glad I get to see a flashback of Nairobi this season.
This whole scene was just cute af. How smooth of Rio lmaooo, but you know what, seeing these flashbacks from before the first heist happened, when they were still taking classes from The Professor, it makes me feel nostalgic, like y'know, these were the times when they were all complete and alive, when they were enjoying each other's company and just being happy. Those were the days...
Okay so I have to tell y'all a story. So rn, I really can't spend a lot of time on Facebook. Why? 'CAUSE THERE ARE A LOT OF SPOILERS GODDAMIT!!! I WAS STILL ON EPISODE 2 WHEN I FOUND OUT THAT TOKYO DIED! THERE WERE PEOPLE SHARING THE SCREENSHOTS OF TOKYO DYING, AND SOME ARE EVEN VIDEOS!! HOW RUDE OF THEM. LIKE CAN Y'ALL WAIT AT LEAST A WEEK BEFORE YOU SPOIL THE SERIES? But we can't control people and it was my fault for scrolling in the app even if I knew I'll see some spoilers. Okay, so back to Tokyo, now that I knew she's gonna die, I considered these flashbacks of her as the foreshadowing of her death. Like you know, this is what usually happens. Like for example, before Nairobi died, we saw flashbacks of her life in the past and that's how we knew about her daughter.
Now this whole scene about Sierra naming the baby and then Marsielle and Benjamin arguing about the colors is a good break from the adrenaline-filled scenes of the war-like scene we've been getting.
GOODBYE TOKYO...
Tbh, I really didn't think that Tokyo was gonna die. I've always thought that she was the one who lived to tell the story, heck I even expected that everyone's gonna die except for her. One reason is because she was the one narrating the whole story from the start.
I really feel bad for Tokyo, the way she'll die is just an awful feeling for us viewers. Imagine yourself in Tokyo's shoes, you have 5 gunshot wounds, the army is going towards your position. It's just a horrible feeling that death is SLOWLY looming towards you and you can't even put up a fight.
And I can't even imagine what Rio is feeling. The love of his life is gonna get killed right before his very eyes and he can't even do anything about it. All he can do now is just be there for her because that's what she wants and she's happy about him being there before she dies.
And don't get me started about the things she's telling Rio. It's just sad. I really thought I wasn't gonna cry in this scene because I already know what's gonna happen, but I still did.
And Denver...poor Denver, he lost his father in a heist and now he lost a sister. I started crying the moment he said this to Tokyo. Also, during the start of the second heist, I was really worried about Stockholm and Denver. They're the ones who has a baby to come back to and I can't imagine the pain and what will happen to the child if one or both of them die in there.
NAHHH!!! SHOOTING HER SO MANY TIMES AS IF SHE'S SOME KIND OF A SHOOTING BOARD WASN'T NECESSARY!! GOOD THING Y'ALL WERE BOMBED. Tokyo has always been that girl, someone who won't go down without giving a fight (My apologies for doubting you, Tokyo) I never thought she'd pull that last stunt. And it's about goddamn time for Gandia. He was a real pain in the ass (more than Arturito is) His death's been long overdue.
And lemme just say... everyone's going through a war meanwhile Stockholm is living in a horror movie lmaooo, but it's commendable that even in that condition, she managed to help Denver and Manila escape.
I also think that Rafael and Tatiana won't help the gang. The flashbacks of Berlin will tell the story of how Rafael stole Tatiana away from Berlin and how they sold him out. I'm guessing that they were doing another heist then the two planned two sell Berlin out to the police or something like that. Remember when he said to his son, "When you really want something, you have to steal it from someone else" then Rafael looked at Tatiana.
Remember when they were planning to recruit Tokyo, Berlin said, "I just got out of prison". That's why I'm guessing that he got into prison because his son and his girlfriend betrayed him.
And now I am traumatized. Thank you for that, money heist! I used to be happy getting a second season from the shows I love, but now, thanks to this show, I just realized that I'm starting to hate the thought of my favorite show getting renewed for another season. I was so happy back then knowing that money heist will come back after the success of their show, but now, I am no longer happy about it. I just realized that these types of shows are not the ones I should be happy about getting renewed for another season, because it just means more casualties and more deaths. I'm now realizing that it was better if the show ended after that first heist.
The second part of the show is good, not gonna lie, everything about it is good, except the deaths of the characters. Causing me emotional damage is not good. I am heartbroken by what happened with Tokyo. I still remember the pain and all the tears I cried when Nairobi died and now Tokyo, too? This is just too painful. I was really a sobbing mess when Nairobi died, I’d cry and then stop and then stare at a distance and then my tears would start to roll down and then I’d cry again. It was like that for a week.
