Spoilers for 'Motherland: Fort Salem' Season 1 Episode 8 'Citydrop'

'Citydrop' put the witches of the Bellweather unit through the wringer. Not only were they up against wargames that would determine their future, not only did they then go up against the actual Spree, but the unit nearly tore itself apart with infighting. When Raelle Collar (Taylor Hickson) found out that Tally Craven (Jessica Sutton) knew Scylla (Amalia Horn) was Spree and had been the one to report it, she feels immediately betrayed. Abigail Bellweather (Ashley Nicole Williams) has her own reasons to be mad, as the Spree were responsible for the death of her cousin.

Of course, in the middle of a combat simulation, Raelle's resentment at Tally cost the team dearly and all the fans want is for the Bellweather unit to find a way to get past their differences. "This has the potential to completely wreck their futures. Get your head in the game!" wrote a fan, on Twitter.

"Tally and Raelle need to stop fighting and get in the game," said another fan. One viewer wrote, "Ok Raelle is putting her entire unit at risk with attitude" while another said, "Raelle is going to burn everything to the ground because she refuses to admit the truth to herself and that's not good." 

"If your unit can't function as one, you are all vulnerable. Raelle and Tally need to check their **it," posted a viewer. "Raelle so irresponsible yes we all want you to get back with scylla but you going to get your unit killed girl. You are reckless," said another tweet.

"This is the WORST time for them to be fighting like this," added a viewer

Not all viewers were as harsh, however. "I hate seeing Raelle and Tally fighting. It breaks my heart," said a fan. "Damn. Now Abigail is mad at Tally? Jesus. Can’t win for trying," tweeted a viewer.

Another fan pointed out that it might be far too late for the unit to come together, at least for now, writing, "ALL MY GIRLS ARE FIGHTING AND I NEED THEM TO HUG IT OUT BUT I DONT THINK THEY CAN " 

The next episode of 'Motherland: Fort Salem' airs on May 13 on Freeform.
