'The 100' Season 7 Episode 14: Clarke is forgiven for Bellamy's death, upset fans say 'it doesn't sit right'

Fans that have invested so deeply into a character like Bellamy hoped for more of an actual goodbye but not even his sister questioned his death

Spoilers for ‘The 100’ Season 7 Episode 14 'A Sort of Homecoming'

While we'd all like to move on from Bellamy Blake's (Bob Morley) death, it seems to be impossible considering how unceremoniously he died in the last episode and how quickly his death was forgotten in this episode. After Clarke Griffin (Eliza Taylor) shot Bellamy in 'Blood Giant' to save her daughter Madi (Lola Flannery), many fans were confused considering Clarke wasn't able to recover Madi's sketchbook from Bellamy anyway making his death pointless. He didn't even get the travelers goodbye nor was he able to say bye to his sister Octavia Blake (Marie Avgeropoulos) or Echo (Tasya Teles). In this episode, there was maybe a 5-minute scene where when Clarke reunited with Octavia and Echo on earth, she reveals to them that she "tried everything" but had to kill Bellamy - which is simply not true. Instead of Octavia punching Clarke as most fans expected, but instead, she was so quickly forgiven that fans were yet again extremely disappointed. 

"We could have had Octavia being mad at Clarke and fighting her because she killed Bellamy but instead we got her forgiving her and saying I understand and everyone hugs her like her shooting him was okay no that doesn't sit right with me #The100," wrote one fan. Another added, "I can't believe octavia mourned Lincoln and didn't forgive bellamy for 2 seasons when he wasn't even the killer but she mourned her f*cking brother and forgave his killer in 2 seconds #The100." Fans that have invested so deeply into a character like Bellamy hoped for more of an actual goodbye but not even his sister questioned his death. 

Another fan wrote, "Not octavia being okay with clarke killing her brother like. make it make sense pls. #The100" with another replying, "These non-reactions on #The100 are almost funny. Everyone--his sister, his gf--is over Bellamy's death in about 2.5 seconds. I half expect Octavia to thank Clarke for shooting him."

While some tried to understand, they still couldn't as one fan wrote, "Okay i get why octavia understood clarke bc she has hope and she would kill anyone for her but they all treating bellamy like he ain’t shit #The100." Other fans were upset that everything was centered on Clarke, even though a huge death had taken place. "#the100 oh looky i was right. Echo and Octavia got a few seconds of emotion and it was mainly "oh its ok you murdered someone we love". Everything was made about Clarke the f**king b*tch. And we barely got glances at Murphy, Emori and Raven who spent over 6 years with him wtf," tweeted another fan.

The 100' airs on Wednesday nights at 8/7c on The CW.
