Clarke Previously on The 100...
[description here]
Clarke [Enveloping Bellamy in a hug] Where's Finn?
Bellamy Looking for you.
[description here]
Finn I count twenty-six.
Murphy These people don't look like warriors.
Finn What have you done with them?!
Nyko Your friends are not here.
[description here]
Gustus [Darkly, with conviction] You sent an assassin into one of my villages.
Lexa Later, we will talk. In the meantime, your friend will be used to send a message.
Jaha Leave...or die.
Dr. Tsing Mark this one for the Cerberus Program.
Cage First dose is the worst.
Octavia It's Lincoln — he's a Reaper.
Octavia No...
Bellamy Now, we take him home.
Maya There's a containment breach.
Jasper Even a little radiation could kill them.
Tsing [To Jasper] If we were to circulate Maya's blood through your system...
Jasper It could make her better.
Monty They exposed her to radiation on purpose.
Maya The standard treatment sucks.
Monty Are those all...Grounders?
Jasper I won't leave the others behind.
Monty What choice do we have?
Jasper We volunteer.
Dante I'm impressed, Jasper, and deeply grateful.
Jasper You saved us, right? [Smiles tightly] It's the least we could do.

[description here]
Tsing Four minutes and ten seconds. We're making progress.
Cage She's in pain; I'm bringing her in.
Tsing Whoa, whoa, whoa. Do you trust her not to talk?
[description here]
Tsing Might as well get a full reading.
[description here]
Cage The blood of the 47 could be our permanent solution, and that's what you said.
Tsing Science takes time, Cage. [She pauses.] There are dead ends and blind alleys on the path to every breakthrough.
Cage [Points at screen] You call that a blind alley? She's one of us.
Tsing [Voiceover] No. Of course not! I call that sacrifice. For the greater good.
Keenan [Offscreen] Open the door!

Act One
[description here]
Abby [Voiceover] There has to be another way.
Jaha There's not. The Commander's message was clear: leave or die. We have sixteen hours.
Abby You think we should just give up.
Jaha This is not our home. It's theirs. Because Kane went looking for peace, he has given us a chance to move on without bloodshed.
Abby And where's Marcus now? Imprisoned still? You're just going to leave him there? Like the kids in Mount Weather? If we run, who's going to rescue them?
Jaha You weren't there, Abby. I saw them. Warriors trained since childhood to fight and die for their cause. As we speak, they are marching on this camp. And trust me when I tell you, the right choice is to live, so that we can come back and fight another day.
[description here]
Major Byrne Ma'am, sir. The people are on edge. Word from their Chancellor could go a long way.
Jaha Of course.
Byrne Unfortunately, sir, Doctor Griffin is still in command until a vote can be taken, [turning to Abby] or you willingly transfer your authority.
[description here]
Jaha What're you waiting for?
Abby [With conviction] I'm not ready to march our people into the desert, Thelonious. Not until we try to find another way.
[description here]
Abby We'll talk to them together.
[description here]
Jaha Chancellor?
[description here]
Abby By now, you've all heard the rumor. [Pauses.] And unfortunately, it's true. The Grounders are coming. We have a difficult decision to make. Thankfully, Chancellor Jaha has found his way back to us, and we are discussing all options.
[description here]
Jaha But to be safe, you need to pack. Now. Whatever you can carry. We may need to leave at a moment's notice.
Skeptical man Where will we go?
Jaha I don't know, is the answer. But I heard of a place...a city of light. It's across the Dead Zone.
Skeptical man What makes you think we'll make it there?
Jaha Because we made it here. I have faith. And right now, given the alternative, that's good enough for me.
Clarke Not for us. [Surging forward] If we leave here, what happens to our people in Mount Weather?
Jaha As your mother said, that is a very difficult decision to make. But the time has come for each and every one of us to ask, "Is this how the story of our people ends? Did we come all this way just to die tomorrow?" Because if we're not gone, by the time that sun rises, that is exactly what will happen.
[description here]
Abby No decision's been made. In the meantime, please report to your station supervisor, and gather emergency supplies.
[description here]
Clarke Hey. Where have you been?
Bellamy In the dropship. You need to come back with me right now.
Clarke Why? What's happened?
Bellamy I'll explain on the way. Bring your med kit; meet me at Raven's gate.
Finn This is my fault. The Grounders are attacking because of me.
Clarke The Grounders because that's what they do.
[description here]
Finn Go with Bellamy. Your mom said no decision has been made. If that changes, I'll let you know.
[description here]
[description here]
Bellamy [Soothingly, at the look of shock on Clarke's face] It's okay, it's okay. He's been restrained.
[description here]
Clarke I can't believe we're back here again.
Octavia [Exhausted] Can you help him?
[description here]
Clarke [Shakes head] I don't know.
[description here]
Clarke I knew Mount Weather controlled the Reapers...
[description here]
Clarke ...I had no idea they were creating them.
Bellamy If they can do that to Lincoln, what're they doing to our friends?
[description here]
Cut to black.
Act Two
[Camera pans slowly to the right]
Harper I'm tired of puking.
Miller I'm tired of being a human pincushion.
Jasper [Looks around in dismay; shakes head] Okay...I know this sucks, but as long as it seems like we're cooperating, we're buying ourselves time.
Miller [Disbelievingly] Time for what? I say if we're going to die in here, we might as well die trying to escape.
Jasper [Exasperated] We've been over this. After Clarke left, there is no escape. [Pauses; looks around] We just have to...hold on long enough for her to find a way to get us out.
Monty What if she doesn't find a way? [Shot of Jasper's reproaching expression] What if she didn't make it out? What if this...this story they're telling us is to hide the fact that they killed her? Then, no one's coming for us, and we're doing exactly what they want us to do.
Cut to a shot of Jasper. His countenance has darkened considerably.
Monty Jasper. You know you've thought it too.
[description here]
Harper Alright, then. We escape —
Jasper [Quietly, but firmly] No. [Pauses; shakes head] We find the truth.
[description here]
Monty How do we do that?
Jasper We're criminals, right? [Looks around] So let's be criminals.
[description here]
Clarke [Still shocked, but also concerned] He's convulsing.
Octavia [Agitated] S-So what does it mean?
[description here]
Clarke What happened to his leg?
[description here]
Octavia They shot him.
[description here]
Bellamy He's lost a lot of blood.
[description here]
Clarke [Squinting] Can you shine the light on his neck?
Octavia does so. Lincoln continues thrashing around.
Clarke Needle marks.
Bellamy You think he's being drugged?
Clarke M-Maybe.
Lincoln finally manages to rip free from his chains, tearing them right out of the wall.
Octavia [Yelling in the midst of all the carnage] Lincoln!
[fight scene]
[Cut to Camp Jaha at night. It is illuminated by a few lights.]
David Miller Is it true? We're evacuating?
Abby I just gave the order.
David My son is still inside that mountain!
Abby David, I know, and believe me, if there was any other way, I would have taken it. [Turning to him] But I swear to you, as soon as we find someplace safe, we'll figure out a way to get them.
David [Talking over Abby] I'm not going anywhere!
Abby [Stonily] Yes, you are. The guard is leading the evacuation. If you stay, you'll be disobeying orders.
David [Voice drops to a harsh whisper] Then order me to stay! The other parents of missing kids aren't going anywhere either! I can protect them.
[description here]
Abby I'd be ordering you to die. How is that going to help your son?
David Abby, please...you got your job back. Don't make me abandon mine.
[description here]
Abby Sergeant, pack your things. Report to Major Byrne. The Grounders attack at dawn. I want every man, woman, and child out of this camp by then. Is that clear?
Abby [Harsher] Is that clear?
[description here]
Tsing Based on these results, treatments of the blood of the 47 will never be enough to get us to the surface.
Cage Why are you saying that like it's good news?
Tsing Because it's made me start over. If treatments using their blood give us temporary immunity, how do we extend that immunity forever? By going to the source of their blood: bone marrow.
Cage Oh. What would happen to the donors?
Tsing There's three hundred and eighty-two of us. That's roughly eight procedures for each of the kids.
Cage You didn't answer my question.
Tsing Every one of the 47 would die.
[description here]
Cage [Referring to Dante] He'll never go for that.
Tsing You have to convince him. Cage — we could be living on the ground within a month. All of us.
Cage If your theory is correct.
Tsing I'll worry about the science. [Pauses; stares at Cage] You worry about your father.
[description here]
Clarke We have to stop the bleeding and get the bullet out. Hold his leg down.
Lincoln grunts in pain.
Octavia Shh, shh.
[description here]
Octavia Get so more.
[description here]
Bellamy Once the drug is out of his system, he'll be okay.
Octavia You can't protect me from this one, big brother.
[description here]
Nyko [Grabs Octavia from behind; covers her mouth] Shh!
He pulls his hand from Octavia's mouth, and she turns around.
Octavia Nyko? What are you doing here?
Nyko The scouts have already arrived. The Commander is true to her word. If you do not leave, you will die. [Cut to a shot of Octavia, fidgeting in frustration] Octavia. You saved my life from the Reapers. Now let me save yours. It's what Lincoln would've wanted.
Lincoln's feral scream sounds from inside the dropship. Nyko quickly turns around, trying to find the source.
Nyko What was that?
Octavia [Sighs in resignation] That was Lincoln.
[description here]
Bellamy Your mom would be proud of you.
Clarke [Lowly] My mom would know how to save him.
[description here]
Octavia [Panicked] Bellamy, don't! He's Lincoln's friend and their healer.
[description here]
Clarke [Agitated] He's seizing again.
[description here]
Clarke What is that?
Nyko [In Trigedasleng] Yu gonplei ste odon. (Translation: Your fight is over.)
[description here]
Clarke Wait!
[description here]
Bellamy [Fiercely] Back off! Right now!
[description here]
Clarke Yu gonplei ste odon. It's what they say before death.
Clarke [To Octavia] He's not trying to heal him, [Breathes heavily; turns accusingly toward Nyko] he's trying to kill him.
[description here]
Cut to black.
Act Three
[description here]
Octavia [Fiercely] Nyko. [Glaring at him] Is it true?
Nyko Yes. Death is the only way.
Clarke [Voiceover] Hold on. [Cuts to shot of Clarke] There could be a way to bring him back.
Nyko None that I've ever seen.
Nyko throws his knife to the ground. Cut to a shot of the stairwell. Finn is scrambling up the steps, panting heavily.
Finn We have to go. The camp's leaving.
Nyko [Furiously] You!
Finn We have to stop —
Nyko [In Trigedasleng] Ripa! (Translation: Murderer!)
[description here]
Bellamy [Aims gun at Nyko] Get off!
Nyko You slaughtered my people. Elders. Children. Innocents.
Octavia Oh my god, you're killing him —
Nyko Blood must have blood!
Bellamy Get out of the way!
Octavia Bellamy, you're not killing him!
[description here]
Octavia L-Lincoln...
Octavia He's not breathing...
Octavia Lincoln...
Clarke [Talking over her] His heart's stopped. Move!
Clarke begins performing CPR on Lincoln. [/]
Nyko [Astounded] He was dead...how did you do that?
Clarke [As realization dawns] You've tried bringing Reapers back before?
[description here]
Clarke And they died like this?
[description here]
Bellamy What is it?
[description here]
Clarke I know how to stop the attack.
[description here]
Clarke He's stable for now. We should go.
[description here]
Clarke You ready?
[description here]
Finn Even if you can save Lincoln, he won't be the same.
[description here]
Finn The things he's done... [Voice drops to a whisper] It'll stay with him.
[description here]
Clarke [Shakes her head minutely] We don't know that.
Finn Yes, we do.
[description here]
Clarke Lincoln's savable. [Pauses] And so are you.
[description here]
Finn Now, come on. We have to hurry.
[description here]
Jasper Today, Monty.
Monty I'm going as fast as I can.
[description here]
Jasper [To Miller] Relax. Maya's decontaminating the surveillance room. No one's watching. We got this. If we can get that door ope.
[description here]
Monty Ye of little faith.
Jasper That's my boy. Come on, let's move.
[description here]
Jasper [Quietly] Go, go, go, go, go. Hurry up.
[description here]
Jasper Harper, watch the hole.
Harper Why do I have to watch the hole?
Jasper Monty's good with computers, Miller's a thief.
Harper Why can't you watch the hole?
Jasper I'm the mastermind. Just go watch the hole; come on.
[description here]
Monty [To himself] What do we have here?
[description here]
Jasper [Slightly crestfallen] It's password protected...
[description here]
Monty [Turns to look at Jasper] We'll see about that.
[description here]
Jasper And they say we wouldn't amount to anything.
[description here]
Jaha You made the right decision, Abby.
[description here]
Clarke Mom!
[description here]
Abby Where have you been? We're leaving.
Clarke I know how to stop the attack.
Jaha What're you talking about?
Clarke We haven't been able to negotiate with the Grounders because we haven't had anything to offer them. The biggest threat they face is from the Reapers. I think we may be able to eliminate that threat for them once and for all.
[description here]
Abby How?
Jaha [Sternly] Abby. You can't seriously —
[description here]
Jaha They're here.
[description here]
Cut to black.
Act Four
[description here]
Clarke [Voiceover] They're not attacking yet, which means we still have time.
Abby We have two hours until dawn.
Clarke [With conviction] Let me talk to the Commander. She was Anya's Second. Maybe she'll listen.
Jaha [Frustrated] We don't even know if the Commander is here.
Finn Yes, we do. Nyko told us. You have to at least let her try.
[description here]
Jaha Abby, we're wasting time. Give me the authority now.
Abby Hold on. Clarke, you said that Lincoln is going through withdrawal. [Hesitates] We don't even know what he's withdrawing from. The detox alone could kill him.
Clarke That's where you come in.
Abby And if I can't save him?
The camera cuts to a shot of Clarke's face, which is set with determination.
Clarke That's not an option.
[description here]
Jaha [Incredulous] We are risking everything on a bluff? Abby, we have an out. [Becoming more impassioned] We have a way to save the lives of our people.
Finn Not all of them.
Jaha [Shooting to his feet] We will come back to save the kids inside Mount Weather!
Finn [Angrily] We all know that's not going to happen!
Jaha Abby. This has gone on long enough. If you do not give the order to begin the exodus, you are killing us all.
[description here]
Abby I'm sorry. [Turns to look at Jaha] I can't give that order.
[description here]
Jaha Abby. [Bending over her shoulder, next to her ear] Give the order.
[description here]
Abby [Calmly but stonily] No.
[description here]
Jaha I...am the elected Chancellor of the Ark. And I am not going to let you risk the lives of more people; do you understand? I'm going to ask you once again: give...the order to begin the exodus.
Abby No. Are you through yet?
[description here]
Jaha [Slowly approaches David and Byrne] Sergeant Miller. Major Byrne. I am relieving Doctor Griffin of her command.
[description here]
Jaha Place these three into custody, but make sure they are ready to leave with the rest of us within the hour.
Byrne and David don't react.
[Roars] Right now, Major! Or the blood of everyone in this camp will be on your hands, too.
Byrne stares coldly back at him. She still does not move.
Abby Major Byrne, Sergeant Miller. [Steps forward] Put Chancellor Jaha in the stockade.
[description here]
Byrne Yes, ma'am.
[description here]
Jaha Everything we did to survive... [Pauses] You're just throwing it all away. Why?
Abby [With conviction] Because I have faith, too.
[description here]
Abby In my daughter.
[description here]
Clarke Thank you.
[description here]
Abby I'll send the guard detaiil with you.
Clarke No. [She shakes her head.] They'll see it as a threat. I have to do this on my own.
[description here]
Clarke Finn will take you to Lincoln.
Abby If you're wrong... [Pauses] All of us are going to die.
[description here]
Jasper [Murmurs] Yes...
[description here]
Jasper Guys.
Monty and Miller look up.
Jasper Hah.
[description here]
Jasper Wow...
[description here]
Miller Hey, I got something.
Monty Me too. Damn, I'm good.
[description here]
Monty They're alive.
[description here]
Gustus If you so much as look at her the wrong way, I will slit your throat.
[description here]
Lexa You're the one who burned three hundred of my warriors alive.
Clarke You're the one who sent them there to kill us.
[description here]
Lexa Do you have an answer for me, Clarke of the Sky People?
[description here]
Clarke I've come to make you an offer.
Lexa This is not a negotiation.
Indra [In Trigedasleng] Teik ai frag em op en ge disha odon kom. (Translation: Let me kill her and get this over with.)
[description here]
Clarke I can help you beat the Mountain Men.
[description here]
Lexa Go on.
Clarke Hundreds of your people are trapped inside Mount Weather, kept in cages. Their blood is used as medicine.
Lexa [Suspiciously] How do you know this?
Clarke Because I saw them. My people are prisoners there, too. I was one of them.
Indra Lies. No one escapes the mountain.
Clarke I did. With Anya. We fought our way out together.
Indra Another lie. Anya died in the fire. You killed her.
[description here]
Clarke She told you me you were her Second. I'm sure she'd want you to have this.
[description here]
Indra We don't even know it's hers.
Lexa [In Trigedasleng] Shop of, Indra. [Translation: Quiet, Indra.] Anya was my mentor before I was called to lead my people.
Lexa Did she die well?
Clarke Yes. By my side, trying to get a message to you.
Lexa What message?
Clarke The only way to save both our people is if we join together.
Indra Those who are about to die will say anything.
Lexa I'm still waiting for an offer, Clarke.
Clarke The Mountain Men are turning your people into Reapers. [Cut to a frontal shot of Lexa, still expressionless, before the camera cuts back to Clarke] I can turn them back.
Indra Impossible. [In Trigedasleng] Heda, ai beg yu, teik ai frag em op. (Translation: Commander, I beg you, let me kill her.)
Clarke I've done it with Lincoln.
Indra [Furiously approaching] That traitor is the reason —
Lexa [In the background; warningly] Indra.
Indra [Still talking over Lexa] — why my village was slaughtered by your people —
Lexa [In Trigedasleng; furiously] Em pleni! (Translation: Enough!)
[description here]
Lexa You say you can turn Reapers back into men.
[description here]
Clarke [Nods] Yes.
Lexa Then prove it. Show me Lincoln.
[description here]
Cut to black.
Act Five
[description here]
Dante What are we doing out here?
Cage [Hesitates before turning around] I told you to trust me.
[description here]
Dante [Concerned] Son...
[description here]
Cage [With relief] It worked. [Turns back to Dante] It's okay. You had the same treatment I did. Go ahead.
[description here]
Dante [In wonderment] I'd forgotten the smells
[description here]
Cage This is where we belong.
[description here]
Cage [Voiceover] You always told me that the surface was our true home...
[description here]
Cage ...Not some concrete coffin.
[description here]
Cage We have to go back now. [Cut to a shot of Dante, still holding the flower, looking longingly out into the distance; voiceover] We only have a few minutes. [He places a hand on his father's back.] Come on.
[description here]
Cage Dad?
[description here]
Dante Don't play with me, son. What will it take to stay?
[description here]
Cage Bone marrow. [Pauses] All that they have.
Dante [Stays quiet for a moment; then, coolly] They'll die so that we can finally live.
[description here]
Cage This is our world.
[description here]
Cage We deserve this.
Dante [Turns around to face Cage] We are the keepers of history. What we've done to the Outsiders has corrupted our legacy. I can't go down that road any further.
[description here]
Cage Dad. [Dante doesn't turn around.] Dad!
[description here]
Cage Please.
Dante [With finality] The answer's no.
[description here]
Octavia Oh, thank god. Where's Clarke?
Finn Trying to stop a war.
[description here]
Abby [Concerned] Pupils are unresponsive. [Consecutive shots of Octavia and Bellamy looking at each other in alarm] Tie off his arm. Tight as you can.
[description here]
Abby Thanks to the supplies your brother your brother found, Lincoln might have a chance.
Octavia What's that?
Abby This will bring down his fever.
[description here]
Abby Hold him down!
[description here]
Octavia What's happening? [More frantically] Why isn't it working?
Abby His heart's stopped.
[description here]
Abby [To Nyko] You're their healer. Tilt his head back. Pull his chin down to open his airway.
[description here]
Clarke [Hesitantly] This way.
[description here]
Abby [Breathlessly] Come on...
[description here]
Octavia You're stopping. What's wrong?
Abby I'm sorry.
[description here]
Abby He's gone.
Octavia [Voice shaking in desperation] NO, it's not possible. You're wrong!
Bellamy Octavia...
[description here]
Octavia [Whispers brokenly] Come back...
[description here]
Indra [Snarls] I'll kill them all.
[description here]
Cut to black
Tag
[description here]
Clarke [Voice shaking] Please. You don't have to do this.
Lexa [Venomously] You lied, and you're out of time.
[description here]
Clarke Hit him again.
[description here]
Octavia [Whispers] Lincoln...
[description here]
Lincoln Octavia...
[description here]
Miller If Alpha's on the ground, maybe other stations are, too.
Monty You're from Alpha, right?
Miller My dad was Chief Guard. [Pauses] He sure loved having a thief for a kid.
Monty Hey. You're a great thief.
Monty These are the engineering schematics for this whole place. There's a way out? I'm gonna find out.
Jasper Guys. [Monty and Miller look up] Harper didn't show for breakfast. You guys seen her?
Miller Not since Dante's office
[description here]
Monty So where the hell is she?
[description here]
Harper P-Please...no, please...please....
[description here]
Tsing Don't worry. This won't hurt. [She cuts into Harper's flesh with a scalpel and continues talking, clinical and emotionless.] The hip has the largest marrow pocket. We'll begin the aspiration there —
Cage [Talking over her] I don't need to know the details. Just do it.
[description here]
Tsing [Turns around; says in assuring tone] Your father will come around, Cage.
Cage [Silent for a few seconds] And what if he doesn't?
[description here]
Harper I just want to go home.
Cage I know.
[description here]
Cage So do we.
[description here]
Harper [Barely a whimper] Please...I just want to go —
[description here]
Lexa Lincoln's recovery was... [She pauses for a moment, searching for the right word.] Impressive. No one's ever survived such a fate before.
Clarke It's not complicated, really. We just have to keep them alive long enough for the drug to leave their system. I know we can do that same for others.
[description here]
Lexa You may have your truce.
[description here]
Clarke Thank you.
Lexa I just need one thing in return.
Clarke Tell me.
Lexa Deliver me the one you call Finn.
'[description here]
Lexa Our truce begins with his death.
