In this episode of The Revolution Podcast we share our thoughts on the second episode of NBC’s Revolution, “Chained Heat.” We discuss the character development of Charlie and what it might take for her to learn how to behave in the real world, we talk about Aaron’s decision to share the amulet with Maggie, we talk about and theorize on Randall, and we share a few other observations and easter eggs that we spotted in the episode. Of course, we also share our opinions on Rachel being alive, the US flag being considered a rebel flag, the info we learned on guns, and much more.

Why was it necessary for Nora to improvise that primitive gun with which to kill the warden when Charlie is standing there with a crossbow which will do the job far more effectively with far less risk to herself? How did the writers of this episode let such a glaring plot hole get by them?
I don’t think this is a plot hole. The first thing they did when they saw her was disarm her. They only way she was going to get close enough to the gun and not get her weapon taken away was to have a hidden weapon. You can’t hide that crossbow.
Hi guys,
although you two put on a wonderful podcast, I just can’t get into this show. There is not one character I like or even a wee bit interested in. I was half way through this episode when I had that revelation.
I just can’t buy that Charlie is that idealistic in that kind of world. She has no concept of danger. Even Laura Ingalls Wilder knew the prairie was a dangerous place!
As much as I like you two, I’ll have to pass on this show. But I will keep an eye out for any other podcasts you may put together. Already listen to the Fringe podcast.
Take care and happy watching 🙂
Sorry you’re not enjoying the show, Jenny. I always tell folks to give a show at least 4-6 episodes before giving up. Four episodes kind of gives you enough time to see where they are going and to get a good understanding of the characters. Six episodes allows you to keep watching long enough to see footage that may have been influenced by viewer reactions to the pilot or other episodes. Still, I’m grateful you gave it a try. We still have Fringe! 😉
