The 100 (2014–…): Season 5, Episode 9 - Sic Semper Tyrannis - full transcript

The growing fractures in Wonkru threaten to explode once and for all. Meanwhile, in Shadow Valley, Murphy starts a fire, unleashing catastrophic results.

Previously on "The 100"...

Can I show you something?

You don't have to be afraid.

Blood of the first
commander is your blood.

What would it take for
you to share the valley?

Short of an unconditional surrender,

Nothing.

Octavia will never surrender.

That's why we're
gonna take her out.

Omon gon oson.

Bellamy...



We'll be in the valley.
We'll have peace.

75% of your people are dying.
You're already having symptoms?

Something like that.

We offered
to trade you for Raven,

Yet here you still are.

Diyoza said no.
I can help you.

I'm listening.

One of the abscesses
broke apart.

It was the sound waves.
I can dissolve them.

I just need more power.

Sonic drill. It uses
sound waves to pulverize rock.

Well done, Abby.
How soon can you do the others?

Colonel, it's McCreary.

Looks like he's got prisoners.



You keep it to yourself for now.

You could've been a miner, doc.

Miners don't care
about destroying

The ground they're digging in.

I did that, my
patient would die,

So don't ask me to
do it intentionally

Because I won't.

Colonel, incoming.

You know what to do.
Hide the machine.

Vinson, stay out of sight.

Still alive, I see.

No thanks to you or you.

You seem upset, McCreary,

But you'd need feelings
for that, so...

Your errand boy looks better.

Should I be hopeful?

I'm not.

Robert's lungs filled
with fluid this morning.

He almost drowned.

Same thing is gonna
happen to you soon.

I came to check
on her progress, too.

Maybe we should
let her do her job.

My people know
you didn't trade for me.

Some of them are even
calling for your head.

Well, then it's a
good thing my people

Have all the guns.

I had them locked up
when you came home.

One step ahead, as always.

Crowded.

Am I early?

No, Vinson.
You're right on time.

We should finish this later.

How long does he have left?

Untreated, a week, maybe two,

Until then, we only treat
the people I trust.

After that, we cure
everyone else. Deal?

Trust me, Abby, killing someone

And letting them die,
they're not the same thing.

Vinson, please
go get the machine.

Thank you.

Careful, doc.

He took a thorn
out of a lion's foot,

But he's still a lion.

I'll send in the next victim.

I still can't believe
you helped cure them.

Take it easy.
That guy look cured to you?

- Maybe it didn't work.
- It worked. She built it.

Exactly. A war's coming,
and yet she passes up

Every opportunity we
get to weaken the enemy.

- Quiet.

Shh.

We're still
on the same team, right?

Right?

Good. Then we're agreed.
We kill the pilot.

Then we pop off these collars
and run like hell.

- No.

If we can slip the collars,

We don't have to kill him.

Besides, he's more
valuable alive.

As a spy, you should know that.

What I know is that
a dead man can't fly a ship

Or fire missiles
at the people we love.

- Intel.

We need a distraction
to escape, right?

According to shaw, this place

Is a civil war
waiting to happen.

McCreary's people
hate following Diyoza.

They only did it
in space to survive,

But up until then,

McCreary was the alpha dog.

Shaw told you all this?

You want to weaken the enemy,

What's weaker than an
enemy at war with itself?

It's not that easy.

War has a way of healing
internal divisions.

If they were
soldiers, I'd agree,

But look at them.

What's he doing?

He's being John Murphy.

The tattoo.
He's with McCreary.

Everyone else in here
is with Diyoza.

You son of a bitch.

- Hey...
- Uh!

- Yeah!
- Help!

I agree with Raven.

Should be fun.

- Clarke.
- Madi.

She was ready
to burn this place down

If she couldn't see you.

Thank you for letting
me say good-bye.

Clarke, this isn't good-bye.

Octavia's sick.

They say she might not wake up.

Ok, Madi.
That's enough.

We can't risk the child
being seen here.

She'll be safe now,
and so will you.

Be quick.

What did you do?

Monty's algae.

Oh, my god.

As head of the army,
Indra can accept

Diyoza's terms for peace.

By the time Octavia wakes up,

If she wakes up...

She will.

You said that Murphy was fine.

He didn't even have a doctor.

I poisoned my little
sister, Clarke.

Hey, I know this is hard,

But she was willing to destroy

The last survivable
land on earth

Just to win a war,

Not to mention kill
the people we love.

Well, we're almost there.

Indra's about to take
over for Octavia.

Once wonkru surrenders,

I'll come and get you out.

We'll head back
to shallow valley

Together.

Together.

- She's getting worse.
- I know.

If you're right
and there's something

In her blood, dialysis
should filter it out.

How is she?

Her systems are shutting down.

You were there.

Tell us everything
that happened.

Did she take anything,
drink anything?

It's like I told miller.

She was eating one
of your rations. Why?

Because she might
have been poisoned.

- That's why.
- Niylah, that's enough.

She's his sister.

We were sharing it
the wonkru way.

I ate it, too, and I'm fine.

Have you considered
that the worm toxin

Might still be in her blood?

It's possible, making this

A secondary reaction
to the substance

She was exposed to,
but a week ago...

English, jackson.

Dialysis won't work.
Nothing will.

We need to prepare
for succession.

I'll inform wonkru.

If there's any change
in her condition,

I want to be the first to know.

Gather the first battalion
and the delegates.

I'll be right behind you.

The whispers are true.

Our beloved blodreina
has fallen ill.

These may be her final hours.
Listen to me.

I trained Octavia as my second,

And I love her
as I love my own child.

I advised her,
and led her army with pride.

It was her desire
that if she should ever fall,

I step forward to lead you.

Blodreina wanted
what we all want...

To live a better life
in shallow valley,

And we will,
but not through war,

Not when there's a better way.

For the last 6 years, we have
lost hundreds of our people.

We can't afford
to lose any more.

I will negotiate for wonkru
to enter the valley peacefully

So that no more shall suffer.

You're not in command here...

Not even over
the first battalion.

Blodreina gave that honor to me.

So you expect us
to follow you? He's skaikru.

There is no skaikru.
You know that.

In the absence of a commander,

The clan delegates
should reassemble

And choose the next leader.

Blasphemy.
Miller's right.

There are no more
clans, only wonkru

And enemies of wonkru.

That's funny coming from someone

Who only escaped death
in this arena because

Our real enemies
fell from the sky.

Now, I'm not asking you
to follow me.

I'm asking you to follow
Octavia.

Yesterday she ordered us
to march on the valley,

So we march for blodreina!

Gon blodreina!
Gon blodreina

Gon blodreina! Gon blodreina!

Gon blodreina!
Gon blodreina!

Indra...

I can't stop this war, Bellamy,

But there's someone who can.

Gon blodreina!
Gon blodreina!

We need a real commander.

Gon blodreina!
Gon blodreina!

Absolutely not.

Clarke, you know what
a commander means

To the grounders.

6 Years ago, you tried to
force the flame on luna.

You were willing to put
it in your own head

To prevent a war
over this bunker.

How is this any different?

Madi's a child.
That's how.

I don't care how many
of these people

Still believe in the flame.

They believe in blodreina more.

Madi will be protected.
Gaia and I...

What happens when
Octavia wakes up?

If she wakes up, we
will be in the valley,

And she will see
what peace is like

With her own eyes, and
she will understand.

- I know it.
- The answer's no.

Now unchain me so we can
get the hell out of here

Before we all get
executed for treason.

Clarke...

Echo, Raven, Murphy, and Emori

Are my family.

I'm sorry.
This is happening.

Don't do this, Bellamy.

- Bellamy,
- guard.

You said that you'd protect her.

You said you'd keep her safe.

Bellamy!
Agh! Yaagh!

No! Bellamy! Wait!

Bellamy! No! No!

You two check
the western perimeter.

You 4 with me and kane.

Oh, you look horrible.

Better get on that treatment.

She didn't tell you.

Oh, of course not.
Why would she?

She wants you dead.

Uh!

- Explain.
I'm on your side.

Look. All I know is,
Abby found a cure,

Rigged up some kind of machine

To melt the crap in your lungs.

My guess... Diyoza's choosing
who lives and dies.

You seem to be
on the wrong list.

If what you're saying is true,

You should get
your friends and go

As agreed before
the bloodshed starts.

If you're lying...

It'll be your blood that's shed.

God, your poker face sucks.

Listen to me.

Diyoza didn't tell McCreary
about the cure.

I just did. Bad things
are about to happen here.

Nice work, Murphy.

I'll tell Diyoza so
her side is ready.

As soon as the fighting starts,

Go to work on the collars.

The pilot's, too.

Can I talk to you?

Just once, I wish we could have

A casual conversation.

This isn't it.

We're escaping, and I want you

To come with us.

My friend Emori knows
how to take off the collars,

- And as soon as she can...
- No.

Shaw, you're gonna say
that you're still loyal

To Diyoza after
what she did to you?

It's not that, Raven.
I'm their only pilot.

They'll never stop
looking for me.

That means you'll never be safe.

I don't know why
I care about that.

Maybe it's your easygoing charm.

Uh, let me put it
to you like this, shaw.

Either you come with us
or we'll kill you.

How's that for easygoing?

We'll have to work on it...

Ha ha!

But ok.

I'm in.

I need to speak
with my daughter.

I didn't mean to
interrupt your prayers.

As it turns out,
I'm here to answer them.

What are you up to, mother,

That speech in the arena?

Suddenly, you're a peacemaker?

Real warriors hate war, Gaia.

And yet all you wanted me to do

Was follow in your footsteps.

Get to the point.
Wonkru is set to march.

You're about to get your wish.

So are you.

The child with Clarke
is a real natblida.

You knew.

I said, get to the point.

Give Madi the flame.
Make her commander.

She alone can unify wonkru
and stop this war.

You don't come to me with faith.

- This is desperation...
- Gaia...

Not to mention treason,

For which we both be
thrown into the pit.

Not if it works.
You question my motives.

It's true.

My faith is not
as pure as yours,

But you are as responsible
for what Octavia became

As I am.

Blodreina was a leader
we needed then.

We need a true commander now.

Will you do it or not?

The decision isn't mine to make.

The child must choose
for herself.

I'll check on Octavia.

Madi, do you know why
they brought you here?

Hey, Madi, it's ok.

It's ok.
No one's gonna hurt you.

I told you,

I would never force this
on you, and I won't,

But there are things
happening now

That they believe
only the wisdom

Of the commanders
can save us from,

And as much as I wish
it wasn't so,

I believe it, too.

You're talking about the war.

But you've been
teaching us to fight.

Some fights
aren't worth fighting, Madi,

Not when there's another way.

Clarke made a deal
with Diyoza for peace,

And Octavia's too sick
to accept it now,

But wonkru won't follow
anyone else.

Wait. Clarke
knows about this?

Yeah.
She doesn't approve.

No. She wouldn't.

Bellamy, if I do this,

She'll never forgive you.

- Madi...
- Just wait.

What happens to Clarke
if I don't do this?

Madi, I hate to put this on you.

If there was anything else
I could do, I would,

But this is how we stop the war.

This is how we save that valley,

Your home, and my friends.

This is how we save Clarke.

You're right on time.

I was just about
to call for you.

What's wrong?
- Nothing, the opposite.

Dialysis is working.
Her pulse is stabilizing.

She's waking up.

Hey, Octavia,
can you hear me? Octavia.

Mm...

Hey, Octavia, hey,
Indra is here, too.

Hmm?

You had us all so worried.

- I'm right here.

Indra, my brother poisoned me.

I'll take care of her.

You need to arrest Bellamy.

I'm afraid I can't do that.

- Uh!
- Ugh!

Ugh...

- Uh!
- Huh! Uh!

Ohh...

Uhh...

No one is leaving this room.

What's wrong?

McCreary knows about the cure.

Code blue, boys and girls.
You know what to do.

Lock it up.
Everybody, weapons hot.

Move it.
Come on. Let's go.

Just follow my lead.

First, the panel,
gently like this.

Sorry in advance if I...

Nngh!

Code blue?

McCreary will go for the doctor,

So we'll get there first.

Geotag all the defectors
to the church for now.

You got 5 minutes to get there.

If this goes sideways, we'll
bring you all to the ship.

What about the
defectors who went

With kane to map the settlement?

Kane knows what code blue means.

After we roll up Abby,
we go for shaw.

Copy that.

That's a lot of firepower
for a doctor's visit.

Is something wrong?

Come on, McCreary.

We didn't come all
the way back to earth

Just to kill each other.

We came to live...

And now we can...

Because our new doctor
has succeeded

In finding us a cure.

We didn't want to tell you
until we were...

What's Diyoza saying?

She's telling them
about the cure,

Defusing the bomb
with the truth.

Got to say, she's good.

Yeah? We'll see
about that.

She's lying.

She was never gonna treat
any of us,

Only her people.

Go on. Tell them.

Tell them that you were planning

To let us die so that you

Could make more room
for your savages.

Now you're just being paranoid.

Am I?

What is your friend
kane working on

In the south woods?

A settlement for all of us,

A place where we can rebuild,

Start over.

Once all of you are cured,
you'll each get

A plot of land to call your own.

How does that sound?

Must I always do
everything myself?

Oh!

No!

No! No! Knock it off!

Aagh!

This is my masterpiece.

Let's go, people.
I did my part.

Just one more wire.
Got it.

All right. You all know
where the meeting point is.

If anyone gets split up,
go there.

We'll come find you
and bring you to the cave.

Good.
You're all here.

We need to get Abby and Diyoza

And get to the transport ship.

The other defectors
are there already.

Abby will be fine.
They won't hurt their doctor.

Whatever happens to Diyoza
is not our concern.

- There's no time. Move out.

Is peace your concern?

Bellamy and Clarke
negotiated a surrender.

I've been working
on a settlement

For everyone in the south woods.

Without Diyoza,
that all goes away.

Whoops.

- I'll go with you.
- No way.

Octavia would never surrender.

We leave as planned.

Raven, take him
and go right now,

Or I slit his throat.

Stop talking and do it already.

Shaw, let's go.
Let's go.

I'm going with kane.

John, not again.

It's Abby.
I have to.

Uh! Uh!

Uh!

You two, with me.

Let's go.
Come on.

- Abby.

- It's already stowed.

Good. We need to get
you to the ship.

I'm gonna take her out back.

Uh!

Damn it.

It's ok. If I die,
the cure dies with me.

You're right.

We're not gonna kill you,
but you'll wish we did.

Take her.

Run, Abby.

- Aagh!
- Rrgh!

Oh!

Yaah! Huh! Uhh!

Huh! Uh!

Aagh...

Uhh!

Aagh!

Hrragh!

Ugh!

Yah! Agh...

Nngh...

You kill me,

You will kill your unborn child.

Aagh!

Oh...

It's a girl, by the way.

Uhh!

Ugh...

Ugh!

McCreary's people
are in control.

- We have to go now.

They took her, but she'll be ok.

There's more coming.

Nngh!

Bring back the doctor...

Now.

Tell me why.

Diyoza agreed
to share the valley

If we surrender.

Surrender.

So you're not just a traitor.

You're a coward.

I'm ashamed of you.

And I'm afraid of you,

Of what you've become.

I blame myself for that.

I let you go too far.

The dark year broke us all.

Do not talk to me
about the dark year.

We survived that.

We can survive this, too.

We survived that because of me.

You stood there and watched.

Yes. I shouldn't
have let you

Shoulder that burden alone.

I won't make
the same mistake now.

The ascension call.

Wonkru wouldn't follow you,

So you're using Madi?

- Yes.
- She's a child.

She's the same age Lexa
was when she ascended.

Soon, wonkru will accept
their new leader

And surrender.

Our people will
reach that valley

Without sacrificing
any more lives...

And you will see
the wisdom in it.

How could you do this?

You swore to me
Madi would never ascend.

Thank god. We have
to stop it. Please.

You're not behind this.

No. It's Indra
and Bellamy.

They poisoned Octavia,

And now they want
to replace her.

Niylah, wait.

Guard, I'm done here.

Niylah, please.

I know that you're
loyal to Octavia,

But we both want
the same thing...

To stop the ascension.

- Uh!
- Agh! Ooh!

- Uh!
- Ohh!

He's one of Indra's.

Oh. Thank you.

Ah!

Don't make me regret this.

Where are they?

She's in there,

But the faithful
are already gathering.

We have to get to them
before the put the flame

In her head.

No. There's
too many of them.

Everyone here
wants this to happen.

Tell me the truth, Niylah.

Will wonkru follow
a real commander?

They might.

As long as Octavia holds power,

Madi won't be safe,
and I'm afraid

Our true believers
have all the guns.

Clarke.

Don't be afraid.

Clarke, what are you
doing here? Get out.

She's here to kill me.

I can't let anything
happen to Madi.

Ascende superius.

I am surprised.

Clarke I knew
would've thought this through.

You kill me, my people kill you.

Madi still ascends.
They come after her.

It's lose-lose...

Aah! Aah!

Or we both can win.

What is this nonsense?

What are you talking about?

The only person who wants
Madi to be commander

Less than me is you.

Clarke woke up right away.

Why... why isn't she waking up?

Patience.

The flame affects every
commander differently.

- Help me.
- Yes.

You said you'd
never done this before.

I haven't, but I've been

Preparing for it my whole life.

This collar will
protect the flame.

Back away
from the child right now.

Uh!

I need to get it out.

Clarke, no.

The flame is bonding
with her mind.

If you take it out now
before it's complete

She may never wake up.

Quiet, traitor.
Do it, Clarke.

If you kill this child,
you make her a martyr.

You weaken yourself even more.

I can't.

Take them to the rover.
Go.

- No.
- O...

Arrest the traitors.

Hear me.

We're not finished here.

We're not even close.

There are traitors
in these woods,

Our pilot amongst them.

We still have the doctor.

That means we have the cure.

Once healed, we will find shaw,

And we will kill the rest,

And then we'll do
what Diyoza should have done

From day one...

Exterminate the savages
that would take our land.

Our land! Our land!

Yeah!

Robert, why aren't you smiling?

Worried about that
thing in your chest?

Nope. Already cured.

Oh, not that thing.

Aagh!

The doctor's in.

Yeah!

There it is.

Clarke.

Hi. You're ok.
I'm here.

No. No. Please.

We had a deal.

These are my orders.

Gon blodreina.

Put the gun down, Joroum.

Yu laik Joroum kom sangedakru,

Nomfa kom Lizbeth
kom sangedakru.

You served with honor
in the royal guard

Of Lexa kom trikru.

You believed in her.

Now believe in me.

Heda.

Why did you do that?

You know why.

Clarke, if we run, Octavia wins.

Gaia, Indra, and
Bellamy will die.

They made their choice.

The nightblood child
did not recite the lineage

And is, therefore,
not the true commander.

Instead, she ran,

Abandoning all of us
like a coward.

She is not wonkru.

She is an enemy of wonkru,
and like all of our enemies...

She will be dealt with...

But first...

First, we have a war to win.

Gon blodreina!
Gon blodreina!

Gon blodreina! Gon blodreina!

Gon blodreina!
Gon blodreina!

Gon blodreina! Gon blodreina!

Gon blodreina!

Gon blodreina! Gon blodreina!

Gon blodreina!
Gon blodreina!

Gon blodreina! Gon blodreina!
