Bellamy and Echo "foreshadowed"? LMAO Only in the sense that The 100 is a show where a character betraying another and screwing over their life/triggering the worst period of their life, killing/trying to kill their loved ones, kidnapping, murder attempts etc. seems to be considered a solid setup for a relationship. So much that they apparently didn't even need to show how it developed on screen. Season 3 - she betrays him and murders his girlfriend and a bunch of other people, season 4 - she almost murders his sister, twice, and he almost chokes her to death while stopping the latter attempt...season 5: eh, there was a time jump, he thought Clarke was dead, and they were stuck together on a ship with just 5 other people, 4 of which are in relationships with each other...And now they're in a relationship! It happened.
Just like Carol and Ezekiel, riiight? Carol and Ezekiel make sense and it was always obvious. Bellamy and Echo is more like if Maggie hooked up with Negan or Simon, and it started off-screen.
I had a good laugh at the statement that it's undeniable that they have a solid relationship...Yeah, relationships that start because of being stuck together for years by circumstance, with extremely limited dating choices, have a really strong foundation. But it's undeniable it's a solid relationship because...we saw them make out three times? Other than that, they had a total of maybe 3 conversations all season, one of which was about Echo being worried their relationship would change once they get to Earth, and one of which was a brief exchange in the middle of a battle. While the rest of the season was much more focused on the reunion and relationship between Bellamy and Clarke, and the show wasn't even subtle about the love triangle, from the way the focus of every make-out scene between Bellamy and Echo was on Clarke's heartbroken reaction, to other people assuming Clarke is his girlfriend after seeing their reunion, to Bellamy's sister calling him out on loving Clarke, and Bellamy being ready to go much further to protect Clarke than to protect Echo, to the fact that Echo's biggest scene of season 5 was a conversation with Clarke about Bellamy... it's not hard to see what purpose in the story this poorly developed Bellamy/Echo relationship really serves.

How about Trial & Error's...Josh (who now considers himself to be a Pecker since he relocated to East Peck, S.C.) and Carol Anne (who did every maneuver she could come up with to NOT pop out [his?] baby in the courtroom on the final day of the Trial)...
