"Oye, Beltalowda. Listen up. This is your Captain, and this is your ship. This is your moment"
"You might think that you're scared, but you're not. That isn't fear. That's your sharpness. That's your power. We are Belters. Nothing in the void...is foreign to us. The place we go...is the place we belong"
"This is no different. No one has more right to this, none more prepared. We are the Belt. We are strong, we are sharp, and we don't feel fear. This moment belong to us. For Beltalowda!"
One of the best speeches of the series.

@HippieScubaSteve I rewatched it not long ago when I bought the Blurays. It is definitely among the best SciFi shows of the 2010s, if not *the* best.
@veronica It's pretty amazing.
@veronica @HippieScubaSteve Agreed! Such things are definitely subjective and hard to quantify, but I was discussing this with a friend recently and we both agreed we wouldn't put up a fight with anyone suggesting it was the best scifi series of all time. :) I love it so much...
Easily one of my top ten scenes from the series and probably the best speech.
*Ashford voice* "Beltalowda!"
Inspired by your post, I am starting a re-watch of The Expanse seres. There isn't anything like it.
@nyrath I have been considering it as well, but there’s a lot of stuff in the queue. And I limit myself to one hour a day.
"One of the best speeches of t̶h̶e̶ ANY series."
There - I fixed it for you. Also, I'm still trying to work through my crush on Camina Drummer so I may be a bit biased.

@HippieScubaSteve seasons 1-3 are as good as filmed SFF has ever been. Especially 2 and the first half of 3. Just superb.
