Sp.	Dialogue
Teaser
Clarke	Previously on "The 100"...
Clarke	Bellamy, don't do this. Don't do this.
Bellamy	No! He deserves to die!
Clarke	No! We don't decide who lives and dies!
Sinclair	The Exodus ship is still tied in to all our major systems. If it launches, the Ark will be crippled, and everyone left on board will die.
Diana Sydney	Launch!
Anya	You started a war that you don't know how to end.
Lincoln	You have no idea what your people have done.
Octavia	We had to stop the attack.
Lincoln	You stopped nothing.
Finn	Clarke, come on.
Anya	Take him away and kill him.
Clarke	No. No. No! No!
Scene 1
Jaha	Every simulation has been run. Every system modification has been made. The hard and simple fact is that in 51 hours, life on the Ark will no longer be possible. I choose to find consolation in one remarkable truth. The surviving members of the 100 have proven themselves to be more resilient than we could've ever imagined. Our legacy will go on, and for that... I am not only grateful... but I am proud.
Woman	So what do we tell our constituents to do now? What do we do now?
Jaha	Look inside. Find your peace. In the meantime, I'm releasing all available resources to the surviving citizens of the Ark. There will be no more rationing. What we have belongs to all of us. Are you all right, Abby?
Abby	Yes. I have a patient. She was hurt in the bomb blast. I need to go.
Kane	Sir, is it wise to waste rations when we don't know for sure?
Jaha	But we do know for sure.
Kane	Well, I can't just do nothing. I have to find a solution.
Jaha	Hey, I know this is hard to accept, but if you'd like to spend your remaining time rerunning simulations, by all means, you can do that. I, however, will be spending my time with family and a bottle of 97-year-old scotch.
Scene 2
Bellamy	Come on. These foxholes aren't gonna build themselves. Better hope those landmines work. All the gunpowder we're wasting, we could be making more grenades.
Raven	You want to come over here and test one?
Bellamy	Cute. I need this entire section mined by morning. Then you finish the south field.
Raven	Hey... I told you, we're going after Finn, Clarke, and Monty in the morning.
Bellamy	And I told you, nobody leaves this camp.
Raven	I'm talking to you. We can't just abandon our people. You want to lead them, show them you give a damn.
	[Gunshot]
Man	Whoa! What the hell was that?
Bellamy	Hey... What the hell is the matter with you?
Sterling	I'm sorry, man. I fell asleep. I've been on watch all day.
Bellamy	We've all been on watch all day! That bullet was one less dead grounder.
Octavia	Bell, you're scaring people.
Bellamy	They should be scared! The bomb on the bridge bought us some time to prepare, but that time is up! The grounders are out there right now, waiting for us to leave and picking us off one by one when we do! Clarke, Finn, and Monty are gone, probably dead, and if you want to be next, I can't stop you, but no guns are leaving this camp! This camp is the only thing keeping us alive! Get back to work!
Scene 3
Tristan	Your left flank is vulnerable.
Anya	My archers are in the trees with orders to kill anyone hostile. You're not hostile, are you, Tristan?
Tristan	So this is who's beating you?
Clarke	Who are you?
Tristan	I'm the man sent to slaughter your people.
Anya	The commander sent you?
Tristan	Your unit is mine now. My rangers are hungry and at the river. Go feed them. We march on the invaders' camp at first light. I'll make quick work of what you failed to do, starting with this one.
Man	Anya, look! Over there.
Anya	A signal fire.
Tristan	Reapers.
Anya	Let them know we see it. I'll send my fastest rider to warn the commander.
Tristan	No. There is no time. Kill the prisoner. Get to the river.
Anya	Is the boy dead?
Grounder	Mm-hmm.
Anya	Good. Kill the girl, then catch up.
Scene 4
Bellamy	Don't you think I want to go after them, too?
Jasper	If it was you out there, you think Monty, Clarke, or Finn would hide behind these walls?
Bellamy	No. They'd go after me. Then they'd be dead, too. I am doing what I think is right for the group.
Jasper	It's funny, you didn't think that way when Octavia went missing.
Bellamy	Where are you going?
Jasper	More gunpowder for your minefield... sir.
	[Myles moaning]
Myles	Water... please.
Bellamy	I'll get you some.
Myles	Water.
	[Muffled shouting]
Murphy	This is for tying the noose that they hung me with. Say hi to Connor for me.
	[Shouting stops]
	[Clank]
Murphy	He stopped breathing. I was... I was trying to help him.
Jasper	Murphy, just put the gun down.
Murphy	He tried to kill me. Hey, don't move.
Jasper	Ok. Ok. It's cool.
Murphy	No, it's not. You know what'll happen to me if you tell Bellamy.
Bellamy	[on walkie-talkie] Tell Bellamy what?
Murphy	Give me the radio, Jasper.
Jasper	Murphy has a gun. He killed Myles.
Bellamy	Murphy, what the hell are you doing?
	[Creaking]
Bellamy	Murphy! Murphy! Open the damn door!
Murphy	You try to be a hero, Jasper dies.
Scene 5
Clarke	Finn. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. I don't understand how...
Finn	Lincoln saved my life. He killed one of his own people to do it.
Clarke	Signal fire? That was you?
Lincoln	We needed a distraction.
Finn	I'd say it worked.
Lincoln	Not well enough.
Finn	What's it mean?
Lincoln	It means Anya knows Clarke is not dead. We need to hurry. Let's hope they follow the horse.
Finn	Hey, what do we do now?
Lincoln	Now we run. Come on. It's right up here.
Finn	What is?
Lincoln	Someplace they won't follow.
Clarke	Oh, wait. Where does it lead?
Lincoln	Everywhere. There's a tunnel to your camp. If we make it through, we should get there before Tristan. Go. Go!
Anya	Lincoln!
Tristan	Anya, no. We know where they're going... If the mine doesn't kill them first. Go. Come on!
Scene 6
	[Monitor beeping]
Jackson	Abby, BP is dropping down to 96 over 55. Never should've opened her back up.
Abby	It was the only way to save her.
Jackson	Save her for what? She'll be dead in two days. We all will. She's crashing.
	[Sustained beep]
Abby	Another amp of epi. Starting CPR. Come on.
Jackson	We can't give her any more epi, Abby.
Abby	Rationing is over. Now get me the damn epinephrine.
Jackson	There is no more epinephrine. We're all out.
Abby	Come on. Come on. Breathe.
	[Beeping stops]
Jackson	You have to let her go.
	[Sniffles]
Abby	I failed. I failed.
Jackson	You did the best that you could. You always do.
Abby	She's gonna hate me forever. She blames me for her father's death. I'll never get to make that right now... Never get to hug her. Can't protect her anymore.
Jackson	Clarke doesn't hate you, Abby. She's just... she's just strong-willed... like her mom. You gave her that. That's how you're protecting her, and that's what will keep her alive on the ground.
Abby	Thank you, Jackson. Now get out of here. Go on.
	[Sobs]
Scene 7
Octavia	I just heard Murphy has Jasper.
Bellamy	Yeah. South foxhole all done?
Octavia	What? Bellamy, my friend's in there with a killer.
Bellamy	O, look around. No one's working. If the grounders attack us right now, we're all dead.
Octavia	Murphy! Murphy, if you even touch Jasper, I swear to God, you're dead.
Bellamy	Octavia, I got this.
Octavia	Really? Because it doesn't look like you're doing anything about it.
Raven	Bellamy, you were right. There's a loose panel on the back. If I can pop it, we can get in through the floor.
Octavia	Sorry.
Bellamy	Murphy, I know you can hear me. All our ammo and food is in the middle level. You know that. You're leaving us vulnerable to an attack. I can't let that happen.
Murphy	Yeah, well, in case you haven't noticed, you're not exactly in control right now.
Bellamy	Come on, Murphy. You don't want to hurt Jasper. You want to hurt me. So what do you say? How about you trade him for me?
Octavia	No.
Bellamy	All you have to do is let him go, and I'll take his place.
Murphy	How?
Octavia	Bellamy, if you do this, he'll kill you.
Bellamy	If I don't, he'll kill Jasper. Simple. You open the door, I walk in, he walks out.
	[Creaking]
Murphy	Just you, Bellamy, unarmed.
Bellamy	Take this.
Murphy	10 seconds, or I'll put one in Jasper's leg. One...
Octavia	Raven will find a way to get you out.
Bellamy	I can handle Murphy. Get everyone back to work. The grounders are still coming.
Murphy	- 4... 5...
Bellamy	I'm here
Octavia	Oh, Jasper, are you ok? Ok. Come on. Get up.
Scene 8
	[Stones clacking together]
Finn	You were right. They didn't follow us.
Lincoln	Reapers use these tunnels. Tristan wouldn't risk running into them.
Finn	What the hell's a reaper?
Lincoln	Pray you never find out. We have to keep moving.
Finn	Lincoln, you're hit.
Clarke	Hey, let me look at that.
Lincoln	I've fought battles with worse wounds than this.
Clarke	We're not in a battle right now.
Lincoln	Yes, we are.
Clarke	Why are you helping us?
Finn	This can't just be about Octavia.
Clarke	Fine. Don't tell us. Give me your knife. Heat the blade. You might want something to bite down on.
Lincoln	[Scoffs] You people are so soft. If you don't learn to be more... aah! What my people are doing to yours is wrong.
Scene 9
	[Hiss] [Groans]
	[Two thuds]
	[Raven grunts]
	[Distant, muffled voices]
Raven	Very cool.
Jasper	Stop thinking like a mechanic and find me something to shoot through.
Raven	Well, this mechanic's gonna hotwire the door.
Jasper	There's the hatch.
Raven	Locks from above. Forget it. I give you an order, you follow it, right?
Jasper	Damn it. He's up there because of me.
Raven	[Whispering] Help me find the door circuit.
Jasper	We lost Clarke. We can't lose Bellamy, too.
Raven	Jasper, shut up. They are, like, right above your head.
	[Muffled voices continue]
Jasper	Good. I'll have to shoot through the floor. I just need to figure out where Murphy is.
Raven	Bad idea.
	[Fluid sloshing]
Raven	Holy crap. There's tons of it.
Jasper	The engines fired late on the way down. We can make more bombs.
Raven	Yeah. Put that on our to-do list. But from now on, no shooting, you got me?
	[Gunshot above]
Murphy	That's good. Then do what I said.
Octavia	[over walkie-talkie] Bellamy? Bellamy! Are you ok?
Murphy	You want her to know you're alive? Start tying.
Octavia	Bellamy! Do you copy?
Bellamy	I'm fine. Just a misfire. Now stop worrying about me and get back to work, all of you... And tell Raven to hurry her ass up.
Murphy	All right, that's long enough. Tie those two ends together.
Jasper	Get that door open.
Murphy	All right. Now get up and toss it over.
Bellamy	What do you want me to say? You want me to apologize? I'm... I'm sorry.
Murphy	You got it all wrong, Bellamy. I don't want you to say anything. I want you to feel what I felt, and then... Then I want you to die.
Scene 10
Jaha	What are you two doing over there? Come on. Let's rehearse for the Unity Day pageant.
Wells	The stations...
Jaha	The other stations.
Wells	The other stations saw this and wanted to be together, too.
Jaha	That's very good.
Wells	When all the stations were joined, they called themselves the Ark.
Jaha	Good job, Wells.
	[Young Clarke clapping]
Wells	Daddy, how does the Ark stay in space?
Jaha	Good question. By keeping out of the Earth's gravitational pull.
Clarke	My daddy says it's the thrusters.
Jaha	Well, your daddy's right, Clarke. There are thrusters all over the Ark. Every station has them. They keep us spinning so that we generate our own gravity. They help us stay in orbit and they help us steer.
Jaha	Yes.
Scene 11
Finn	Wait. If you never were down here, how'd you map it?
Lincoln	Spoils of war.
	[Distant shouting]
Clarke	What is that?
	[Shouting continues]
Lincoln	Reapers.
Scene 12
Murphy	Stand on it. Put it over your head.
Bellamy	This is insane. The grounders could...
Octavia	No.
Jasper	We need to do this now.
Raven	I'm working as fast as I can. The wires for the door are mixed in with the ignition system. Sparking the wrong one would be bad.
Murphy	Put it over your head.
Bellamy	Happy now?
Murphy	You're so brave, aren't you? I mean, you came in here thinking you're just gonna turn this whole thing around, that you were stronger than me, and maybe one of your friends would come and help you. Well, what are you thinking now, Bellamy? Hmm?
	[Choking]
Scene 13
Finn	This can't be the only way. Check the map.
Lincoln	If you want to get home before Tristan slaughters your people, this is the only way.
	[Distant shouting]
	[Thud]
Finn	Clarke. The carts.
Clarke	What the hell is this?
	[Shouting]
Lincoln	The tunnel on the right will lead you through the woods into your camp. Take this.
Finn	What are you gonna do?
Lincoln	I'm gonna lead them away. Wait until they follow me, then run. For Octavia.
Clarke	Wait a second. If they catch you, they'll kill you.
Lincoln	Worry about yourselves. Most of Tristan's rangers will be at your gate by nightfall, but he'll send riders ahead, scouts. All of you have to be gone before they arrive.
	[Shouting]
Finn	One of them's coming.
Clarke	Where are we supposed to go?
Lincoln	In my book, there's a map. Chart course to the eastern sea. There's a clan there, led by a woman called Luna, a friend. Tell her I sent you.
Finn	Thank you.
Lincoln	Just get Octavia out of there.
Reapers	Aargh!
	[Thud]
	[Shouting]
Finn	Let's go.
Clarke	Oh, my God. Did you see that?
Finn	Clarke, we need to keep moving.
Clarke	They're alive.
	[Groaning]
Clarke	Oh, my God.
Finn	[Growls] Clarke, look out!
Clarke	They're coming back. Finn, come on. We've got to go. Get up, get up.
Scene 14
Murphy	You know, I got to hand it to you, Bellamy. You got 'em all fooled. They actually look up to you, almost as much as they look up to Clarke. Yeah, well, we know the truth, don't we? You're a coward. I learned that the day you kicked out the crate from beneath me.
Raven	I think I found it. Get outside. Be ready when it opens.
Murphy	Isn't that what you said? That you were just giving the people what they wanted, right?
Bellamy	I should have stopped them.
Murphy	Yeah, it's a little late for that now.
	[Muffled voices continue above]
Bellamy	You think they're just gonna let you walk out of here?
Murphy	Well, I think the princess is dead... but I know the king's about to die, so who's really gonna lead these people, huh? Me, that's who, and, yeah, maybe I'll have to kill your grounder-pounding little sister...
	[grunts]
Raven	Aah!
Murphy	I'm guessing that's her right now.
Bellamy	No!
	[Gun clicking]
	[Choking]
Murphy	Using your hands is a cheat. Mine were bound, remember?
	[Door creaking]
Jasper	Raven, you did it!
Octavia	Bell! Hold on! Yeah! Bell, breathe!
Jasper	Breathe! Can you breathe?
Octavia	Come on! Good. You're ok. You're ok.
Jasper	Raven, he's fine!
Bellamy	Murphy! Murphy! It's over! Murphy! There's only one way out of this for you now!
Murphy	You want to bet?
Scene 15
Finn	This doesn't look right.
Clarke	What the hell was that back there?
Clarke	[Panting] Why... why would they keep them alive? I swear to God, the more we learn about this place, the less we know.
	[Water splashing]
Clarke	Hey, hey, hey. He would have killed us. You did what you had to do. We all have.
Finn	I should have fought for you.
Clarke	Finn, don't.
Finn	Clarke. I love you. I'm in love with you.
Clarke	You broke my heart. I'm sorry. I... I just can't.
	[Distant explosion]
Finn	It came from the camp.
Clarke	We're too late.
Scene 16
	[Bellamy grunts]
Bellamy	Murphy!
Jasper	The guy knows how to make an exit. Should we go after him?
Bellamy	No. Grounders will take care of Murphy. We're going after Clarke, Finn, and Monty. You and Raven were right. We don't abandon our own. Two guns... you and me. That's it. Raven stays here to build up defenses. We lost a day because of this, and our gunpowder. Raven!
Jasper	Bellamy, wait. Look, I just... Thank you. Long way from "whatever the hell you want."
Miller	[on walkie-talkie] All gunners! We got movement outside the south wall!
Man	Someone's coming! Get ready! Stay together!
Miller	Wait! Hold your fire! Clarke and Finn! Open the gate! Get in!
Man	Get the gate! Move it! Move it!
Female Delinquent	Clarke and Finn! They're back!
Clarke	Hey, we heard an explosion. What happened?
Bellamy	Murphy happened.
Jasper	Thank God! Where have you been? Where's Monty?
Clarke	Monty's gone?
Finn	Clarke, we need to leave, now. All of us do. There's an army of grounders, unlike anything we've ever seen, coming for us right now. We need to pack what we can and run.
Bellamy	Like hell we do. We knew this was coming.
Octavia	Bell, we're not prepared.
Bellamy	And they're not here yet. We still have time to get ready. Besides, where would we go? Where would we be safer than behind these walls?
Finn	There's an ocean to the east. People there will help us.
Octavia	You saw Lincoln.
Finn	Yeah.
Bellamy	You expect us to trust a grounder? This is our home now. We built this from nothing with our bare hands! Our dead are buried behind that wall in this ground! Our ground! The grounders think they can take that away. They think that because we came from the sky, we don't belong here. But they're yet to realize one very important fact: We are on the ground now, and that means we are grounders!
Delinquents	Yeah! Grounders with guns!
Bellamy	Damn right! I say let 'em come!
Clarke	Bellamy's right. If we leave, we may never find a place as safe as this. And God knows, in this world, we could be faced with something even worse tomorrow. But that doesn't change the simple fact that if we stay here, we will die tonight. So pack your things. Just take what you can carry, now. Where is he?
Raven	Help me.
Finn	Raven! Raven!
Bellamy	Murphy shot her.
Clarke	Get her onto the dropship.
Bellamy	Clarke, leaving here is a mistake.
Clarke	The decision's been made.
Bellamy	Crowds make bad decisions. Just ask Murphy. Leaders do what they think is right.
Clarke	I am.
Scene 17
Kane	What if we jettison sections 3 through 7?
Sinclair	Sir, we've run every scenario twice. There are no more options. I would really like to be with my wife...
	[door opens]
Sinclair	Chancellor on deck.
Jaha	At ease, Sinclair. Anything to report?
Kane	No, sir. Nothing we've tried will save the Ark.
Jaha	Have you tried not saving it?
Abby	What is this about?
Jaha	It's about going home. From where I stand, we have two options... die in space or probably die trying to get to the ground.
Kane	We have no more Exodus ships, sir.
Jaha	You're wrong, Kane. There is one. We call it the Ark. Sinclair, please tell us what would happen if we use the thrusters that keep the Ark in orbit to propel us into the atmosphere instead.
Sinclair	The Ark would break apart, first into its original 12 stations, then further as the violence intensified. 95% of the structures would explode on the way down.
Jaha	You think you're smart enough to pinpoint the 5% that wouldn't?
	[Sets down schematic]
Kane	Are we really gonna do this? Bring the Ark to the ground?
Jaha	Have a better idea? What do you say, Abby? You ready to see your daughter again?
