Motherland: Fort Salem After Show Podcast

The cadets have graduated from Basic Training, but the Bellweather Unit appears to be the only one not advancing to War College. Instead, upon Khalida’s insistence, they accompany Adil (Tony Giroux) and General Alder (Lyne Renee) on a mission to rescue the remaining Tarim. Meanwhile, Anacostia (Demetria McKinney) makes another attempt to understand what motivates Scylla (Amalia Holm), which culminates in the two sharing similar stories of how they found their respective sides after the loss of their parents. After deploying in the Tarim basin, the Bellweather Unite have a heated conversation with Alder, who defends her seemingly questionable decisions as the ever-present challenge of leadership while sharing her own tragic history. Reaching their destination the following day, Alder convinces Tally her efforts are to save wtichkind and better the world, not seize power. Raelle heals a sick child, which convinces the Tarim to follow the soldiers outside, but they are ambushed by the Camarilla. They burn the helicopter pilots at the stake and initiate a gruesome fight, which wounds one of Alder’s Biddies, leaving Tally to offer her youth to Alder in order to keep her alive. As everyone boards the last helicopter, Raelle attempts to once again save the stragling child but is stabbed through the back with a sword and left for dead. Abigail bails in an effort to save Raelle as the chopper takes off but the two are somehow saved by the sickness which Raelle had removed. Finally, Anacostia helped Scylla escape imprisonment, but follows her into the private sector and to the Spree hideout where Raelle’s presumed-dead mother has been giving the orders. Hosted by Bryant Santos, Kevin Allen, Toree Weaver, and Gunner Texiera
