#s6x02

This is the first time we’ve seen Clarke brawling, isn’t it? I actually don’t believe she has the chops to pull this off in ‘real’ life. Sure, we can hand wave and say, hey, she spent six years in the wilderness spearing trout and teaching Madi the art of the well-timed Spartan kick but really… we haven’t even seen her train on-screen. She always high-charisma rolls her way out of tight spots. More of a persuader/gunner/trapper.

She has, however, seen Bellamy in hand-to-hand combat innumerable times - even as recently as his berserker heart-filled rage at Murphy in  S6xE2.

We now know that she has the ability to transform her mind space experience. It’s telling that within the confines of her mind, when it came down to fight-or-flight she similarly went berserk, mirroring Bellamy’s overkill frenzy while he was clearly out of his own mind. In a way, Bellamy is still saving her - she channeled all his rage and passion to save herself.
