Fun fact, the guy who plays Anderson Dawes is the real life son of Richard Harris (Dumbledore from the first two Harry Potter movies).

I'd like to say that the information overload of The Expanse levels out, but it's more like you get used to it and trust the writers to tell the story. Which works great, because they're really good at it.

Tbh gave up the book series bc of it. Partially also bcs the story set up something interesting and then took a step back, but they had no maps and there were so many ship and moons and belt station names, I had no idea what people were referring to. Gave up after book 6 of the series. I also wanted more of the politics and it was more secondary. Replaced it with red rising which scratched the itch properly.

Think of Dawes as similar to Chrisjen, though perhaps slightly less ruthless. He wants a home for Belters, and if Miller is going to get in the way (bringing more focus to Ceres via Julie Mao and the burgeoning war, at a time of instability where he can maybe wrest more power in the station) he's fine to throw him under the bus for the sake of the rest, if it'll help secure a permanent home (rather than one owned by Earth or Mars). He has good intentions, and is willing to do some potentially bad things to achieve those good ends.

Just joined your Patreon for The Expanse, so I'm a little late to your party here, but in case you haven't figured this out yet, Anderson Dawes, or his family, did not own Anderson Station. He was, however, named after it (a fact that's mentioned in the books, but not really in the show). The Anderson Station incident 11 years ago is considered, among Belters, one of the seminal events in their history of oppression by the "inners" (Earth & Mars). Dawes' parents named him Anderson in memory of Anderson station and the massacre that happened there. Dawes himself does care about the Belt and its people, but he is also a bit of an opportunist, and sometimes believes his own narrative a bit too much. He's, on balance, a good guy, but he's also manipulative and sometimes he can be full of shit. He's definitely a wild card in the system, unpredictable. Fred Johnson and Anderson Dawes sort of represent opposing ideas of what the OPA is and should be. Both can be ruthless, but Fred strives more for peaceful resolutions to the Belt's problems (probably in part because of the guilt he feels over the violence he was part of when he worked for the other side), whereas Dawes is not above violent revolution if it will achieve the ends he seeks. Miller's ex (and current police cohort) is named Octavia Muss. He calls her "Tavi."

@Spartan The chamber you can't breathe ( haha :D ) called an airlock. It's basically a door to space. You enter on stationside, shut the door, and pump the air out into tanks. When that's done you can safely open the outer door and you will not lose the precious atmosphere. If you just open the door to space everything gets vacuumed out. This way you can safely go in at out. Judging by the size of that thing it looked like a cargo airlock so they probably dock a ship straight onto it or they attach it with a tunnel and move the cargo between the station and the ship.

You are absolutely correct, and I'm a little embarrassed that I could have even thought that Anderson Dawes could have somehow been named after an event that occurred when he was likely well into his 30s or 40s. I'm usually much better at math than that 😳. This just goes to show that I need to reread the books. I read them all exactly once, whereas I've seen each episode of the show probably 50 or 60 times. After a while, what you read, what you see on the screen, and what you read in (sometimes misinformed) comments from others all blend together into one jumbled mess... The important part of what I said still stands; "Anderson" is not a family name in the Dawes family. And really, no Belter family would likely have any ownership interest in a concern as large and established as Anderson Station or the Anderson-Hyosung Corporation. But on the rest of my comment, I stand corrected. Thanks for setting me straight before I unleashed that "fact" on someone else. 🤐
