any hope for them?

Maddie seems pretty well screwed at this point. Broussard and anyone else who's suspicious enough to hide in their basements for a few days will probably escape the roundup. The raps don't care about getting every last person as long as they get almost all of them. He can't go back to his old hideout but you know he must have at least one fully stocked backup location. He wouldn't put all his eggs in one basket. We'll see him again at some point. I wonder if the exterior walls of the LA bloc will be removed once the place has been emptied out. Why maintain them anymore?

i think he will find a way out. he was definitely right in not trusting snyder.

We know the rap sensors aren't beyond our understanding. They use things like thermal and X-ray, neither of which can see through thick metal or concrete. People staying above ground in their homes will be spotted by drone. Below-ground basements are probably safe places though. Broussard's old location would have been completely secure. I'm guessing he has others; maybe less spacious and with less equipment, but plenty of weapons to rearm and provisions to last a while. He can stay at one of those until the raps have withdrawn (which probably won't be that long).

i agree. as for maddie, unless there is a riot once people realize what's happening and she can slip away, i don't see how she can avoid the factory.

We may not see her again. Although you know, they didn't show any scenes at the Factory this season. We still have no idea what the place is making. It's obviously very important to the raps' master plan, so maybe we'll follow Maddie up there and get some answers about what they're doing with all those people.

Yeah, I think we'll see Maddie up there next season. But remember who else is up there? Nolan! "Oh Hi! Give me a big smooch". It's gonna be fun.

A worker accidentally got flushed out one of the airlocks - how did that happen?

Lol.

I'm not sure why Broussard stayed behind.

I think they just want another story line back on the bloc. He's too good to lose.

i agree. im hoping somehow he hooks up with maddie, although i don't know how.

Unless something miraculous happens (maybe a last second riot) I can't see how Maddie avoids doing the moonwalk. If she does get away though, it wouldn't strain credibility too much for her to encounter one of the twenty people still left in the bloc. Broussard knows who she is. He'd probably make a wisecrack about the reward she got for her loyalty, then decide that despite his distaste for her as an ex-collaborator he owes it to her sister to save her sorry ass. I wonder if the exterior walls will lift away after a few days and leave LA open to the world. I mean, the partitions enclosing Santa Monica and San Fernando would stay in place, but the incomplete wall around Los Angeles means any survivors there would be able to leave. So Broussard (with Maddie in tow if she escapes) could hit the road and eventually catch up with the Bowmans.
