The 100 (2014–…): Season 6, Episode 8 - The Old Man and the Anomaly - full transcript

Octavia and Diyoza make their way to the mysterious anomaly in search of the Old Man. Meanwhile, Murphy has an offer for Emori.

Previously on "The 100"...

GAIA: Sheidheda,
the dark commander,

he's getting too strong.

- ECHO: Bellamy, what's going on?
- Clarke's dead.

Josephine?

This body's not big
enough for both of us.

Two minds, one brain.

If we don't do something,
this body dies.

What if I told you that primes
had a way to save Kane?

Teach them how
to make nightblood,

and then that's yours.



His mind is gonna go
in another person's body?

I'm afraid of what
will happen to you

- if you lose him.
- I'll do it.

BELLAMY: Josephine was tapping
morse code on her arm.

It means Clarke's alive.

Don't try to control your hand.

Just let it move.
Take a look.

- The shape of the anomaly.
- What does it mean?

The anomaly is calling you

just like it called me.

I guess we better see what
the hell this anomaly wants.

[THRUMMING]

XAVIER: Welcome
to the verge.

[THRUMMING CONTINUES]



Don't worry. You'll never
get used to the sound.

Is he here?

XAVIER: I got to get
the power on.

First, the old man cures you.

And then you put
a bullet in his brain.

Look at us finishing
each other's thoughts.

Who'd have thunk we'd turn
into an old, married couple?

[KA-CHUNK]

[RADIO CHATTER]

[RADIO CHATTER CONTINUES]

DIYOZA: Thought you said
radios were no good here.

XAVIER: They're not.

Uh! Nngh...

All signals get sucked up by the anomaly.

You pick them up here in
endless, repeating waves

or something.

[OCTAVIA MOANS]

DIYOZA: Who's the girl?

XAVIER: Put that down.

He loved her, didn't he?

You can tell by the picture.

She was just looking
to get laid.

I wouldn't know.

You can ask Gabriel yourself
when we get to the anomaly.

Weapons stay here.

- That's funny.
- Is it?

You know what happens
during the red sun?

Heard about it...

Tree toxins, mass hysteria,

sounds like a party.

It's not.

The anomaly has a similar
effect on the plants here,

only it's constant and weirder.

Trust me, you do not
want to be armed.

I won't take you if you are.

What about these?

Because there's about
50 different ways

I can kill you with them.

[OCTAVIA GASPS]

Who are you?

Octavia. Octavia.
Octavia.

Octavia, it's ok.
Ok. Shh shh shh.

It's starting
to reach her brain.

Hey, it's me...

Diyoza, hmm?

Two serpents, one garden.

Yeah. Good girl.

XAVIER: Move over.
I need to see her arm.

Nngh!

Uh...

We don't have much time.
I'm curious.

You experiencing memories,

things you don't
quite understand?

[OCTAVIA MOANS]

You look pretty good
for an old man.

Say hi to Gabriel.

You saw the scar.
Heh.

I would ask about yours,
but the story

of how you slashed
your own throat

was big news
before we left earth.

Where do you think you're going?

To the anomaly as planned.

Time to find out what
it wants with you.

Oh, about the gun,
if you bring it,

you'll most likely kill all of us,

yourself and baby included.

It's up to you.

Come on.

Uh! Huh! Uh...

Ugh...

I got a bad feeling about this.

[DOOR OPENS]

- [DOOR CLOSES]
- Gavin...

We're ready for you.

For the glory and
grace of the primes.

For the glory and
grace of the primes.

MAN: Congratulations, Gavin.

Your spirit shall live
eternally.

[CHUCKLES]

ABBY: I don't know what
this [INDISTINCT] is.

I just know that it works.

NIYLAH: Abby, we're talking
about erasing a person's mind.

I know what we're
talking about, honey.

RAVEN: Can I talk to Abby alone, please?

You said we came here
to save Kane,

but you left out how.

That's Becca's serum, isn't it?

Yes. It is.

I show them how to make
nightblood, they save Marcus.

But by turning him
into one of them,

by murdering that man out there

and keeping Kane in...

Gavin, come with me.

Abby...

Excuse me for interrupting.

It's not murder, raven.

It's sacrifice.

Gavin wants this,
don't you, Gavin?

More than anything in the world.

You can't even look at him.

Do you mind?
Abby, look at him.

Ma'am, it's ok.

You're giving me a gift.

As a null, I could never dream

of a moment like this.

Your offering is accepted
with love and light.

[GASPING]

Oh!

Nice catch.

Don't worry.
He felt no pain.

So much for,
"first, do no harm."

So...

[DOOR CLOSES]

How do we do it?

JOSEPHINE: Well?
Any sign of stroke?

How long until our brain melts?

Best guess...
36 hours,

less if you can't keep
on her side of the divide.

Oh, it's not a problem.
She's back in her cage.

I just need to stay
awake long enough

for priya to build something

to generate the emp.

You can't tell priya
or anyone else,

not until your mother
is back and we're sure

we can make enough hosts
for you and the others.

I'm confused.
I already have a host.

I just need you to finish
what you started.

We take out my mind drive,

we nuke the neural
mesh with the emp,

and then we put it back in.

Problem solved.

Josie, we have a chance
to erase this sin,

to give Clarke her body back,

to put you in a willing host.

Uh, are you out of your mind?

- Uh...
- Ohh...

Uh, look, dad.

I've seen inside
this girl's head.

I know what she's done.

Trust me, if we bring her back,

she'll kill us all.

I don't think she will,

not if we do the right thing.

Stay here.

I'll have Jade fetch you
Clarke's clothes.

Sweetheart...

When the universe
gives you a second chance,

you take it.

We'll get through this.
You'll see.

JACKSON: Thank god
she's still in there.

It would have destroyed Abby.

BELLAMY: Question is,
how do we get Josephine out?

ECHO: We need raven.
She'll know what to do.

Madi: Raven's not here.

Hey, we're gonna get her back.

When the transport ship lands,

we'll be waiting
in the field with Josephine.

Once we're all back
on the mothership,

Abby, raven, and Jackson
will go to work.

What if they don't open
the shield and let us out?

ECHO: If they don't,
Josephine dies.

- That's why they will.
- What about Delilah?

If Clarke's still alive,
then she could be, too.

You only care about Clarke.

That's not true, but worry
about Clarke for now.

We start asking questions
and the primes figure out why...

They can't figure it
out if they're dead.

Once we kill the primes,
we take over sanctum.

We save Clarke here in the lab
that was built for it.

Is that your idea or Sheidheda's?

Who cares if it works?

I've been surveilling
the one named Miranda.

We kill her and let them find the body.

They'll think
it's the children of Gabriel

and panic, locking themselves
inside the palace,

probably the great hall,
and that's where

we'll be waiting
to take out the rest.

We're not killing Delilah.

Delilah's already dead.

We don't know that for sure.

You're right,
but what we do know is,

I'm the commander.

Echo thinks it's a good plan,

don't you, spy?

A little aggressive
for the situation,

but it could work
if we were willing

to kill all of their
people along with them

when they come after us
for killing their gods.

- We are.
- No, we're not.

Gaia would tell you
the same thing if she were here.

We have until the ship lands
to come up

with a quiet way
to get Clarke on it.

What about Murphy and emori?

For now, we tell them nothing.

Emori, too?

BELLAMY: We have to assume
that she's with him.

Don't worry.

When it's time to go,
we're taking them with us,

even if we have
to do it by force.

- Hey...
- Hmm.

It's a beautiful morning.

Come on outside. I want
to show you something.

- Don't do that.
- Do what?

Act like nothing's wrong.

They killed Clarke.

How can you be ok with that?

I'm not.

Let me guess.
You talked to bellamy.

Echo. She said you
made a deal with them.

We don't go to war over Clarke,

the build us another sanctum.

What I want to know is
what's in it for you.

Only immortality.

What?

You know,
I really wanted to do this

on a balcony overlooking
our brand-new world,

but I guess it is
has to be here,

it has to be here.

John?

What is this?

Emori, I love you,

and... look...
I know I've never been perfect

or even close, for that matter,

but you make me want to be,

and we've been through
so much and survived so much.

What are those?

Mind drives,

one for each of us.

First, they make us nightbloods.

Then they make us primes.

We'll never die.

Well, now,
that's a survivor's move.

Oh, the ultimate.
Ha ha!

So what do you say?

Think you can love me forever?

JOSEPHINE: Adorable.

Sorry to interrupt.
Where's Ryker?

Ryker?

Ryker, get down here.

Josephine, emori.
Emori, Josephine.

Hello.

Bet you can't wait to
get rid of that thing.

Uh-uh-uh-uh, hurricane Josie,

you owe her an apology.

Ryker!

What is it?

- Or not.
- What's wrong?

Not sure where to start.

How about the fact
that you're living

in the machine shop
and not the palace?

It's Clarke, right?

Unfortunately,
the answer to that

is not a straight up no.

Sorry. What do you mean,
it's not a straight up no?

Is she with us?

- I'm with you.
- Good.

We'll have plenty of time
to get to know each other,

but first, I need your help

getting your friend out of,
well, her own head.

Josephine?

Welcome to the party.

MURPHY: Wait a minute.
Clarke's alive?

Great.
We're all on the same page.

Wow. I feel us coming together

as a team already, don't you?

[JOSEPHINE CHUCKLES]

[OCTAVIA PANTING]

How do we know when this stuff
starts getting to us?

JOSEPHINE: You might actually...

DIYOZA: You ok there, grandpa?
I asked you a question.

JOSEPHINE: What do you think, Gabriel?

DIYOZA: Are we boring you?

How about we pass the time
by you telling us

how someone dedicated
to the destruction

of the immortal primes
took a new body?

I mean, dying sucks...
I get it...

But not being willing
to die for your cause

makes you a coward
where I come from.

I left sanctum, but
sanctum didn't leave me.

What the hell does that mean?

It means I still have
the drive in my head

but no one to remove it.

I eventually taught someone...
Eduardo,

a null infant rescued
from the offering grove.

I loved him like a son.

Unfortunately, once he learned

to perform the procedure,
he refused.

DIYOZA: Why?

By then, Xavier was born.
He had the blood.

Eduardo believed it was a sign,

a freeborn host.

I thought I convinced him otherwise,

but when my last body died, he finally

wiped Xavier and brought me back.

JOSEPHINE: He loved you
too much to lose you.

I know the feeling.

Once I resurrected

and realized what he did,

I killed him in a fit of rage

and assumed Xavier's
identity out of shame.

No one else knew.

That's why they think
you abandoned them.

They were right.
He's a coward.

[CHILDREN LAUGHING]

Did you hear that?

GABRIEL: Hey, hey.

You didn't abandon your people.

You were just afraid
to lead them.

I was trying to
take down a system

dedicated to the worship
of false gods.

JOSEPHINE: A system
you helped create.

I became a false god
all over again.

Understand?

Hmm.

Good. Come on.

You don't have much longer,

and we still got a ways to go.

Ohh!

Hey. Hey, hey.

You're not gonna freak out
on my again, are you?

- Oh...
- Hey, come on.

Come on.

- What?
- What?

Nothing.

It's just, uh,

can she see me, or...

Yes. She can, John,

and she knows that
you betrayed her

and that you're gonna help me

kill her once and for all.

How does that make you feel?

RYKER: She's lying.

By the time both minds
are simultaneously conscious,

she won't be able to speak,
let alone stand.

JOSEPHINE: Not quite right.

It does suck, though,
which is why it ends today.

I know why I'm doing this.
Why are you?

JOSEPHINE: Because she wants
what you take for granted.

Shall we tell her
why you're doing this?

Didn't think so.

So what do we use to channel
the pulse to her brain?

Wait.
The wristband.

I saw it in Clarke's mind.

They clamped it on raven's wrist

before blasting
her with the emp.

The telemetric cuffs they used

to monitor you from the ark.

It made contact with
the central nervous system.

We don't have anything
like that here.

Actually, we do.
I'll be right back.

I like you, emori.

I think we're gonna
be great friends.

Hmm. I approve.

Let's prep for surgery.

One eligius shock collar.
What do you need it for?

This circuitry will be useful

in building our radiation shield.

You ok?

Mm.

Thanks for this.
See you.

Bellamy...

Clarke's alive.

You already knew.
Why didn't you tell me?

Oh, because I'm with John.

- Emori, I...
- Never mind.

What are you doing about it?

You think you have time?

Bellamy, they're
wiping her today.

That's what this is for.

I take it it's go time.

Yeah. We need a plan
to get Clarke now,

something other
than killing them.

Where the hell's Madi?

Sorry to keep you waiting.

[GASPS]

For the glory and grace
of the primes.

[KNOCKS ON DOOR]

Ohh...

[SNIFFLES]

If you had the chance
to bring back

someone you love, would you?

Not if I had to kill
someone to do it.

I didn't come here
to debate this.

No. You came here to ask me
to take a spacewalk

because Becca's serum
only combines in zero g.

It's what we figured out
before you went

full mount weather on Luna,

turning her into a monster.

Now I guess it's your turn.

Raven, if we don't do
this, Marcus dies, too.

Then that man who sacrificed

his life for him is...

Oh, stop.

Do you honestly think this
is what Kane would want?

I don't know...

But no, probably not.

He'll hate you for it.

Maybe.

Maybe you're right.

I might lose him,

but at least he gets
a chance to live.

I am not doing this for me.

Neither am I.

Get out.

- Raven, please.
- I said go.

Fine. I'll take the
spacewalk myself.

Go for it.
My suit's in the cargo bay.

At least you'll have
a nice view when you die.

Oh, brain surgery
in a machine shop.

What could go wrong?

It's very Clarke, actually.

Yeah.

Hey...

You'll be a god, John.

They'll write songs about you.

They'll pray to you.

You'll only get old
if you want to,

and you'll never die.

How are we doing over there?

Yeah. All set, actually.

[JOSEPHINE SIGHS]

Before we get started,
in case anyone gets any ideas...

If I don't come back,

Jade has a letter for my father

about how you let Gabriel go.

That makes you a founder
of the terrorists

trying to wipe us out.

My guess... you'll get
fed to the forest...

- And you...
- Mm-hmm?

In case you have
any second thoughts,

she has orders to kill you

and your adorable...

Emori.

She took the emp.

[PANTING]

[MOTORCYCLE APPROACHING]

Emori, what are you doing?

Let's go back, be immortals.

The offer still stands
for the next 10 seconds.

Please, just let me
talk to her, ok?

I love you.

I know that this is hard,

but Clarke was willing
to put you in an oven.

You remember that?

Oh, John,

I am so sorry it had
to be like this.

Like what?

Emori, nothing needs to change.

We can go back right now.

I told them not to tell
the guards about any of this.

BELLAMY: That's what
we were counting on.

Oh, perfect.

You know, I admire you guys.

I really do.

If the other primes
had half your balls,

we'd be swimming in hosts,

and none of this
would be necessary,

but unfortunately, it is,

so I'm gonna give you the facts

because I really don't think

you thought this through.

Yes, Clarke's alive,
but the brain

we now share is dying,

so unless one of you
is a neurosurgeon,

this body will die
in hours, not days.

My mind will be backed
up, and hers won't.

ECHO: Actually,
our neurosurgeon's on his way.

Jackson.

Huh. Ok.
Sure.

Let's say that he
figures it out.

He won't, but, just for fun,

where you gonna operate,

here in a joberry field?

BELLAMY: Actually,
we're thinking about using

one of the 14 research outposts

marked on the map
your father gave us.

Well,
it's too bad you can't get past

the radiation shield.

Oh, that's where
the emp comes in.

Emori...

- Uh uh!
- Ah! Uh!

- All right.
- I'm sorry, John.

Step away from the device.

BELLAMY: You think we
care about that traitor?

JOSEPHINE: Uh,
lord knows you shouldn't,

but, yeah, I do, which brings us

to yet another episode
of "no good choices."

Clarke would love this.

Either you let Murphy die
in a doomed attempt to save her,

starting a war with my father

or we stay friends and live
happily ever after.

Take a minute to think it over.

Madi?

Not on any of the lower levels.

Where's Jordan?

I thought he was with you.

No. We split up
to cover more ground.

I'll find him, too,

but you need to go now.

What? No. I'm not
leaving without you.

MAN: Miranda prime
is dead!

The children of Gabriel
are here.

- Oh, how could that be?
- No.

- It's Madi's plan.
- She's in the great hall.

JACKSON: We got to find her
before she kills someone else.

CASSIUS: The children
of Gabriel are here.

Let us get you inside.

It wasn't the children of Gabriel.

Bring me the people from earth.

Get priya and Ryker
into the great hall

and sound the alarm.

CASSIUS: Sound the alarm right now!

Where the hell is Josephine?

[ALARM BLARING]

Huh. That can't be good for you.

Stand down now,
and this never happened.

We can't do this
without Jackson.

MURPHY: You don't need him.

Find Gabriel.

He was one of them,
but then he bailed.

Ryker helped him escape.

Gabriel left 70 years ago.

He'd be 106 by now,
also known as dead.

Why do you look so concerned?

[MOTORCYCLES APPROACHING]

JOSEPHINE: Here they come.

Set the emp.

[ALARM CONTINUES]

JOSEPHINE: So much for forever.

- Aagh!
- No! John!

- No.
- Oh! John! John...

- Uh!
- Ugh! Agh! Uhh...

EMORI: Just put it near the pylon,

plug it in, and press the button.

Make sure Clarke is out of the way.

You have 10 seconds to get out

before it reboots.

You take Clarke.

I'll stay and keep
the others safe.

When the ship gets back,
we'll find you.

This is a really
stupid plan, you know.

If you do this, the children
of Gabriel will kill us both,

and my father will
kill the rest of you.

Is that what you want?

[BEEP]

- We got this.
- You so don't.

[BEEP]

ECHO: It's down. Go now.

Uh!

[BOTH GRUNTING]

[ZAP]

[ALARM CONTINUES]

Stay safe.

Save Clarke.

Huh! Uh!

- Ok.
- Emori, come on.

He's with them now.

No. I'm staying
with him.

Go find our friends.

Ok. Ok.

You have to go.

Shut up, John.

My answer's yes.

I will love you forever,

even if we die today.

[EXHALES]

Stay with me.
John!

Everyone out.

Prime protection protocol in effect.

- Move out.
- Let's go.

[PEOPLE TALKING INDISTINCTLY]

- No!
- Aah!

- No.
- Jordan?

CASSIUS: Lock the child up
with the others

and call the doctors.

- I'll stay with priya. Move!
- Let me through!

JACKSON: I'm a doctor!

[ALARM CONTINUES]

[MOANING]

Be careful with that.

I can't make another batch.

Sorry.

Did you prebreathe pure
O2 before suiting up?

If not,
the nitrogen in your bloodstream

could kill you.

I'll do that now.

Take off the suit, Abby.

Raven, I'm doing this.

RAVEN: No, you're not.

I am.

You were right.

An innocent man is dead
because of you.

The way I see it,
letting you die, too,

would only make things worse.

I couldn't save my mother,

but I can save you.

Now take off the damn suit
before I change my mind.

JOSEPHINE: Come on. Speak.

We both know you only
come here to see me.

Not this time.

You say something, doc?

No. You must be
hearing things.

The anomaly will do that.

Sometimes it's
your darkest fear...

Sometimes your deepest desire.

Sometimes it's both at once.

GIRL: Mommy! Mommy!

Hope.

Mommy, please help!

Help!

JOSEPHINE: Her child.
Of course.

Primal, tough to resist.
10 to one, she goes in.

You may finally get
your answers, Gabriel.

GABRIEL: Long is the way and hard

that out of hell
leads up to light.

[THRUMMING]

Wow.

GABRIEL: Whoa, whoa,
whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

No one's who's gone in
has ever come out.

Wait.
She's not there.

OCTAVIA: Whatever you see,
it isn't real.

If you go in there, you'll die.

I don't know what it means

or if it's real.

I just know I have to go.

Oh...

No.

Diyoza! Wait!

[OCTAVIA PANTING]

Huh!

You're healed. Oh...

RUSSELL: 5 dead primes in 5 days.

This is my fault
for letting them stay.

Oh, I'm sure you
had your reasons.

They're not all bad, Russell.

Delilah's boyfriend
saved my life.

And for that, we'll do
what we can to save his,

but the others will stand trial

for what they've done.

Trial?

Huh. Good.

We should talk
about their motive.

What motive could
possibly explain...

Mother, please.

Zeus looks like he
has something to say.

She came to you, didn't she?

Yes. She did.

She who?

Josephine.

The one with the blood...
Clarke.

Russell and Simone
murdered her...

Only it didn't
quite take, did it?

Russell, it wasn't your turn.

You jumped the line.

MAN: Move.

RUSSELL: Where is she?

They got through
the shield moving east

toward children of Gabriel territory.

Uhh...

How many are with Josephine?

JADE: They're not talking, sir.

We'll see about that.

Put them with the others.

Aagh!

Uh...

Rrgh! Rrgh!

Ugh!

Get their guns.

Distribute them to the guards.

Do whatever it takes
to bring my daughter home.

As the primes are my witness,
I'll bring them back.

[FLATLINE BEEP]

Here he comes.

[EXHALES]

I'll leave you two alone.

[GASPING]

[GASPING CONTINUES]

Abby.

Marcus?

Huh. Ohh...

What the hell is happening?

What have you done?

I saved you.
