The 100 (2014–…): Season 5, Episode 12 - Damocles: Part One - full transcript

Previously on "The 100"...

How the hell did you get here?

How long do we have?

6 days, maybe 7.

Like it or not, we're on his side.

How can you still be against Octavia?

She murdered her own
people to break their will.

If this is the last
living valley on earth,

then it should be ours.

Their whole
focus is to keep you out.

When I give the signal, we open fire



on pillbox one, position "A" here.

According to Diyoza,
at the first sign...

Sign of attack,
McCreary's forces at point "B"

and "C" will converge to reinforce "A,"

thinking that's where
we're coming through.

Leaving the
other two doors wide open.

We time it right, we move fast,
there won't be any resistance.

You have two seconds to tell me

why you're turning yourselves in.

Wonkru know you have my battle plans.

They know every move you're
gonna make before you make it.

You're gonna lose this war.

We'll tell you how to win it.

And why would you tell me that?



Because I won't let the
Devil in this garden.

Two pillboxes,
just like Echo said.

That's our signal.

Leave it. Let's go. We're out of here.

It's working.
They're moving out.

MCCREARY, ON RADIO: "A"
team, cease fire. Dog is in.

Move to position "B"
and join in on the fun.

Murphy, you
finally got a gun. Use it.

Going as fast as I can. Come on!

Should stay.

Say hello to my little friend!

Oh, she's got a kick.

John.

What did you do?

He cracked the core.
It's gonna blow. We should run.

I don't run.

They've stopped shooting back.

No movement in the pillboxes.

No reinforcements yet, either.

Where the hell is everyone, then?

Something's wrong.

Do me a favor, Kuba.

Leave the mic open till it's done

so we can hear the music.

You did your best to stop this.

In the end, if we have to fight,

it's better to win.

Jaha would be proud of you, Ethan.

Attack!

O., you should be covered.

Stay low! Stand your ground.

Retreat! Go back to the bunker!

No! Advance! It's the only way!

O.! O., it's the only way.

Get out of here.

We go back, or we find another...

KUBA, ON RADIO: What do we do
about the ones who got away?

Let them run.

They'll die of starvation
in the wasteland.

Copy that.

What's wrong, Kane?

I thought this is what you wanted, too.

We all want the same thing...

the survival of the human race,

and there are people out there

who can help us achieve that.

He's right. We can't do this alone.

And yet,
according to your book,

we have everything we need right here.

It's your first entry after we woke up

and we thought we were alone,

right after your sword
of Damocles speech

to the leaders of the
so-called free world.

We didn't need that one, did we,

and here it is... plans for
the survival of the species,

courtesy of our friends
aboard Eligius three.

They weren't criminals.

Neither are we, not anymore.

You will be if you commit genocide.

And I thought we were all friends now.

Relax, Paxton. We are.

It was always gonna be us or them.

Kane knows that, too, don't you, Kane?

She's good, isn't she?

These is only one reason
you're still alive,

and once she's born, you won't be.

- Lock her up.
- Yes, sir.

Look. We gave you what you wanted.

Our Intel was good,

and if you don't mind,
I'd like to see Abby now.

Otherwise known as the
reason you're still alive,

and I do mind.

You can see her once she's finished

healing my men and examining my child.

Until then...

why don't we listen to
what you've done, Kane?

That is the sound of victory.

Octavia would have killed us.

Clarke, they're getting slaughtered.

We made our choice.

You made your choice.

Let's do this.

Last patient. You did good, Mom.

After this, I want you to
rest. Madi and I will clean up.

After this, it'll get easier.

I need it to get easier.

There's something I have to ask.

The overdose.

Was it an accident?

I don't know.

Well, we're together now...

and we'll get through this, too...

all of us.

Madi. Madi?

Madi.

Oh, she took the keys.

She's going to fight.
I have to stop her.

Well, them I'll go with you.

No, no. It's fine. She won't get far.

You stay here and finish up.

- I'll bring her back.
- She'll just do it again.

As long as that thing is in her head...

I promised her I wouldn't take it out.

What am I supposed to do?

You're asking someone who
sent 100 kids to the ground

to keep her own daughter
from being floated.

So whatever it takes, then?

Whatever it takes.

It won't start.

I took out the conductor. Now let's go.

Fine. I'll walk, then. Out of my way.

- No.
- Let go of me.

Madi, ascende superius.

You took out the conductor.

I changed the pass phrase.

I'm not a child anymore, Clarke.

I'm the Commander, and
my people are dying.

I will not let you die in this war.

O., don't move.

I said, don't move.

The second we move, we're dead.

- Blodreina...
- Get down.

Blodreina...

This is your fault.

We are not doing this now.

Judging by the number of dead,

some of your army must have
made it back to the wasteland,

but they won't last long
without food or water.

I have to get to them.

You lay down covering fire, and we run.

No. O., I lost my weapon.

We have to wait until it's dark.

Once we make it back, we get the radio,

and we surrender.

We can't win.

It's over, but we can
still save our people.

Nothing is over.

Your Intel was bad,

but at least we know
what we're up against.

O., no one will follow you.

This is your fault, not mine.

You led them here.

You burnt their farm,
and you made them march.

These people are dead because of you.

- O., stop moving.
- Please!

What are they doing?

Please. We give up.

Get down. Get down.

So much for surrender.

Miller, you're hit.

Nate, let me see.

Take his blood.
Give it to Miller.

Miller, did you see, Bellamy?

He's with Octavia. We got
to go back and get them.

Get them? This is their fault.

The enemy was waiting for us.

Well, maybe if you and
the rest of the Flame cult

- didn't turn tail...
- Say that again.

Enough!

Were they alive?

I don't know.
That's why we got to go back.

Then you go back alone.

No one else is dying to save Blodreina.

Brell, we could still win.

We could still win!

We could still win.

We could still...

Hey.

Get me a suture kit,
something for his pain.

- We're all out.
- Of what?

Of everything.

ECHO, ON RADIO: Bellamy,
skai drag em hola.

Go. Take it. We've got this.

Bellamy, skai drag em hola.

Yu sen ai in.

Bellamy, come in. Do you read me?

Echo, it's Monty.

Trig, Monty. Put Bellamy on.

I thought the signal was safe.

- What the hell happened?
- It was Diyoza.

- The bitch betrayed us.
- We don't know that.

Yeah? Then where is she?

She wasn't alone.
Kane betrayed us, too.

Everyone be quiet.

Monty, where the hell is Bellamy?

He's missing, but there's
still gunfire in the gorge.

It's not over yet.

Guys, if you don't
figure something out fast,

300 people are gonna die out here.

If there are 300 of you, then attack.

- You have the numbers.
- That's not an option.

There's only a handful of
people willing to go back in.

They're at each other's throats.

Nobody's in charge.

Echo, if the enemy is listening...

OK. We understand,

and we'll figure something out.

Radio silence until then. Is that clear?

Copy.

What about air support, then?

Transport ship's got missiles, right?

If we can get on board, take control...

No way. The one thing McCreary
doesn't have is a pilot,

and you want to walk one
through the front door?

Raven's right. It's too risky.

I agree with Murphy.

If we can't get in through the gorge,

this thing is over, and
they die in the wasteland.

So let's get them through the gorge.

Murphy, Emori, stay here

and get that cannon working.

Sorry. What are you talking about?

Monty says they need a leader,

so let's go get them one.

Shaw and Raven, you two are with me.

A leader? Explain...

Bellamy's in trouble.

Do what I say.

OK. It's dark enough.

Next time it passes, we go.

OK. Now.

Get down.

We're clear. Come on.

O., O., what are you doing?

We'll never make it past those lights.

- No.
- Grab a rifle. There's one right there.

As soon as you pull
that trigger, we're dead.

Come on. Let's do this.

Help us.

- Indra.
- Gaia's hit. It's bad.

Are you hit, too?

Yeah.

We have to get Gaia to Jackson.

- Come on, Indra.
- No. We can't move her.

Wonkru will come back for us.

It's OK. OK. We got this.

OK. First,
we stop the bleeding.

Not here. We need cover.

They won't see us behind those rocks.

Get down.

Now. Come on.

Run.

OK. Even if we stop the bleeding,

we'll never make it carrying her.

Save yourselves.
I'm not leaving my daughter.

Indra's right.
They'll come back for us.

Why are you doing this?

A week ago, you threw us in the pit.

A week ago, you were a traitor.

Next week, you may be again.

Right now, you're Wonkru.

She thinks
when Wonkru comes back,

you'll tell the followers
of the Flame to follow her

back through this gorge.

If they don't, everybody dies.

McCreary said you'd finished.

122 procedures in 5 days without pills.

I heard that, too.

Where's Clarke?

I'd like to thank her for helping you

when I couldn't.

I asked her and Madi
to sleep at the church

so we could talk.

I know that look. What's wrong?

McCreary won't accept
Wonkru's surrender.

They're all gonna get wiped out,

and I told them how to do it.

And I gave him the ability to.

I'm just so tired of having
to choose the least...

least bad option...

Octavia or McCreary,

starvation or...

First, we survive.

Then we get our humanity back.

You told me that, remember?

A long time ago.

I wish I still believed it.

We'll get there.

Then get ready to prove it.

Hey, easy. Echo, let her go.

We're not here to hurt you.

I know why you're here.

You think Wonkru will
follow me into that gorge.

What are you waiting for?

Take off the collar
before Clarke gets back.

Safe to say, she's not
up for Mother of the Year.

Light.

You know, it's nice to finally meet you.

You mind talking to someone else, kid?

I'd like your head not to explode.

Get the hell away from her.

Hey, Clarke.

Haven't see you in 6 years,

and this is how you say hello?

Clarke, put down the gun.
These are your friends.

Quiet, Madi. Now, Raven.

Back away.

You, too, Shaw. Weapons down.

Do as she says.

Sorry, Clarke.

I'll get the collar.

She left Bellamy to die.

Now, or I won't go with you.

You're not going anywhere.

- Her mic is open.
- We have to go, now.

Take our pilot and his girlfriend

back to the ship.

Come on.

No. Let go.

Clarke, how could you do this?

- Kill the spy.
- Wait. We need to talk to her.

What do they want from her?

I don't know,

but if you kill Echo,
we'll never find out.

You two stay here.

When they're done talking, kill her.

Thank you, Clarke.

Now that we have our missiles back,

it's time to end this
so that both our children

can live happily ever after.

Abby?

Abby's not here.

If I'm not mistaken, she went
to examine Colonel Diyoza.

Oh, the trigger to my collar?

It was in her hand when she left.

OK. Thank you, Vinson.

I'll tell her you were looking for her.

Actually, it was you I came to see.

All right.

How can I help you?

I hear the battle is
going well, thanks to you,

hundreds of people dead in a single day.

That's quite impressive.

All my days added together,

it wouldn't even come close.

I know what I've done,

and I'll struggle to live with
that for the rest of my life.

If only a conscience was a free pass

and not just a voice in your head

you pretend to listen to
between unspeakable acts.

I myself am unburdened by conscience.

Well, I'm happy for you.

Now, if you'll excuse me,

I need to get to the bridge.

Why not embrace the demon instead

the way Abby does?

I get her pills for her.

- Did she tell you that?
- No, but she's clean now.

I'm sure you're grateful
that she saved your life,

so if you truly care
for her, you'll stop,

and you let her heal.

I can't do that.

All right. I think you need to leave.

Most addicts fall off the wagon

in the wake of personal tragedy...

Did you know that?

The death of a loved one, for instance.

No! Stop!

OK.

- Abby...
- Shh. Don't try to talk.

I... I can fix it.

I forgive you.

I know you told Octavia to break me.

Marcus, hang on. Hang on.

She killed those people, not you.

It was Octavia.

It was Octavia.

No.

Hey, no.

What about Madi?

What kind of Flamekeeper

leaves a 12-year-old Commander

to fend for herself?

Keep fighting,

if not for you, then for her.

I broke it.

Yes. You did.

How's your head?

How's yours?

I imagine, becoming
a traitor in the eyes

of everyone you ever
cared about must suck.

It does...

But if it means keeping Madi safe,

I can live with it.

The great Wanheda,

willing to do anything
to protect her people.

Correction... person.

Too bad she doesn't appreciate it.

We've all got blood
on our hands, don't we,

or do you think those people you blew up

in Mount Weather don't
count because you were

following orders?

I should've killed you
when I had the chance.

Well, that makes my dilemma
a little easier, then.

What dilemma?

Those men over my shoulder
have orders to kill you

as soon as we stop talking.

I'd prefer they didn't do that.

Why do you care?

Bellamy loved you.

You were good for him.

As far as I can tell,
he was good for you, too.

Hmm.

What?

Bellamy's not dead, Clarke.

At least, he wasn't until he...

He survived your betrayal in Polis

long enough to march straight
into your betrayal here.

What, now you care about Bellamy?

I always cared.

Don't worry.

If he's still alive in that gorge,

he won't be once McCreary forces Shaw

to launch those missiles,

torturing your friend
Raven to get him to do it.

He put the Flame in Madi's head.

He did that to save us all,

and she took it willingly,
didn't you, Heda?

Don't call her that.

She knows I did.

Yeah, because you're brave and reckless

and because I was in trouble.

That's right.

I did it because I love you.

I thought love was weakness.

Isn't that what the Commanders
in your head tell you?

Yes, all but one.

I think you should get some sleep.

I don't want to sleep.

Every time I close my eyes,

I see you outside the
door at Mount Weather

ready for war, and then I walk away,

leaving you there alone.

Let me translate that for you.

Lexa protected her people

by making a deal with the
enemy, leaving Skaikru to die.

Yes, just like I've done here.

I don't need ghosts telling me

what I've lost to protect you, Madi.

Clarke, she's not a ghost.

She's real.

They all are,

and you're wrong about why
she's showing me that memory.

Betraying you is her deepest regret.

She's showing me that

because she doesn't want you to make

the same mistake she did.

Please, Clarke. I know you're scared.

I am, too, but I have to do this,

and you have to let me.

Oh, Madi...

This is how we survive.

It may be...

but life should be about
more than just surviving.

They're done talking. This one's yours.

What?

- Good choice.
- Come on.

We need to get to the front
before the missiles do.

We can take the Rover.

Good.

Murphy and Emori have
one of the sonic cannons.

Clarke, there's no time. We have to go.

No. You have to go.

I have to stop that transport ship

from taking off so you
can lead your people

through that gorge.

Here. You'll need this
to start the engine.

Remember where it goes?

Clarke, please. I need you.

You will always have me.

I will always protect you.

This is how I do that now.

Echo will be by your side.

Every step of the way.

Listen to me.

You're so special, Madi,

I knew it the day I met you

when you led me into that bear trap.

All this time, you thought
I was keeping you alive,

but it was you who saved me.

You are Madi kom Louwoda Kilron Kru,

heir to Becca Pramheda,

successor to Lexa kom Trikru.

I loved her so much,

but it's nothing compared
to how much I love you.

What if I never see you again?

No, not possible.

How can you be sure?

It's simple.

You may be the Commander,

but I'm the Commander of Death,

and I say, we will meet again.

Go save him.

Raven, stop.

- We're getting out of here.
- No. We're not.

Look. McCreary's gonna torture us

until he gets what he wants,
and I can't let that happen,

so I need you to work on my collar.

I'm not asking you to take it off.

I'm asking you to turn it on.

I'm not killing you, Shaw.

And I'm not bombing Wonkru.

You're worried you'll break?

Yes. I will when they torture you.

Please, Raven. It's the only way.

If we take me off the
table, McCreary has nothing.

I can't trigger a sustained
jolt myself, but if you just...

Buckle up, Lieutenant.

It's gonna be a bumpy ride.

There's
someone alive out there.

Get down. They'll see you.

What do you care if I die?

Isn't that what you want?

Yes.

Her heartbeat is slowing.

We need to go now.
I'll give them a target.

The next time they open fire, we run.

I'll carry Gaia.

No.

You're not dying for me.

She's right.

I may never be able to fix what I broke,

but I can save you.

I'm the one they want most of all.

When they open fire, run like hell.

My brother...

my responsibility.

Get down!

You are Wonkru, or you
are the enemy of Wonkru.

Choose.

Octavia, get in, now!

Yeah! Somebody call for a rescue?

Hurry up! We're not staying.

Thought you said you fixed this thing.

I obviously didn't.

It's gonna blow! Throw it now!

Come on. In. Get in.

Yeah!
