The 100 (2014–…): Season 7, Episode 15 - The Dying of the Light - full transcript

Clarke and Octavia mount a desperate rescue mission as the Disciples close in on what they want.

Previously on "the 100"...

Madi's sketchbook. He knew that

she still has the memories
of the commander.

She would never be safe.

Don't make me do this.

I'm sorry.

Unh!

It seems you're the key

to the transcendence
of the human race.

They gave me a choice...

Use these to bring
you back peacefully



or this if you
wouldn't go willingly.

Agh! Unh!

Sheidheda got away.

He stabbed himself
in the gut and disappeared.

The stone's here.
It can't pinpoint

the exact location.

Cadogan will just keep
sending more people

until he gets me.

No one else is dying to save me.

Bomb!

Unh!

Emori?

Emori!

Emori, answer me!



Raven, distorted: Murphy!

Murphy, are you ok?

I can't find emori.

- Where was she?
- She was right in front of me!

She was right...
She was right there.

Hey, hey. You're
probably concussed.

How many fingers am I holding?

Too many. We need
to find emori now.

If she was with you,
she won't be far.

We'll work a grid.

Emori, emori, say something!

Something.

We got you, we got you.
We're coming for you!

Thank god. I thought you...

Were hurt.

What, this?

It's just a scratch.

Jax, we're coming!

We can still get to madi.

Clarke, we have to
think this through.

Gaia's right.

Only the second pill's for me.

We're gonna need an inside man.

Good. Let's do it.

Cadogan disappeared right away.

Why isn't this working?

Maybe somebody has
to be waiting in bardo

to pull you through.

Unh!

Aah!

Clarke.

We have to get to madi!

Cadogan could be digging
into her brain right now.

Aah!

Sir.

And you must be madi.

My name's levitt.

So glad you've chosen
to join US.

It's ok. Just have
a seat right here.

I know it looks scary,
but don't worry.

It won't hurt.

Pain interferes
with the readings.

It's not too bad.

Good. Just lay your head back

and get comfortable.

We're gonna start by going
through a baseline scenario.

Imagine you're
in an endless desert

with a vast, purple sky.

A hand reaches out for your own.

Whose is it?

Hologram mode.

Neural link engaged.

Well done, madi.

I know you're afraid,

but if your mind contains
the final code,

it'll all be worth it.

You're wrong.

What do you mean?

Gabriel said Jordan
studied the texts.

You think it's a war
because you want a war...

But it's actually a test
someone has to take.

I am sorry,
but I find it unlikely

that a boy who studied
the texts once

knows better than those
of US who have spent

generations with them.

That said, translation
is as much an art

as science.

After all, what is war
but a test

of might and will?

So if Jordan is right
and it is a test

of a single individual,
then... That's a good thing.

Madi, I don't want a war.

I don't want to send
my children to die.

If I could spare all
of US the pain

of fighting, then
I welcome that test.

Forgive the interruption,
my Shepherd.

We received a signal from earth.

Two nano-tags
have been activated.

Madi's people are no
doubt worried about her,

but she'll be with
them soon enough.

For now, leave them there.

They'll thank US after
we've transcended,

taking them with US.

Ready to begin.

- You doing ok, madi?
- Yes.

I want to show you something.

Think back to this image.

Is the system malfunctioning?

No, sir. Just give me a moment.

Madi, I need you
to be very still now.

I'm going deeper.

Just focus on the drawing.

What else do you
remember about her?

Nothing. I... I don't know.

Don't worry, madi.

We'll figure this out together.

I'm not doing this for you.

I'm doing this to save
my friends, my family.

You're very brave.

Sir, it's strange.

This particular memory
is not registering

in any of the areas that
memories are usually stored.

She drew things that
she couldn't have seen.

Those memories are
in her mind somewhere.

Sir, I would have to search
much deeper than just the cortex.

It's extremely dangerous,
and I've never done that before.

They tell me you're
the best. I trust you.

For all mankind.

My inside man is sure
taking his sweet time.

We should discuss the plan.

Clarke and octavia
bring US over.

We get madi and kill
their leader.

Killing cadogan
won't change anything.

He can't chase US if he's dead.

You've seen faith, mother.

You kill the commander,
another takes her place.

You kill the fleimkepa,
another takes his place.

Faith doesn't just die.

It gets carried forward.

Cadogan's people
are no different.

Then how does this end?

Bellamy asked
that question, too.

One last war,

and then we transcend
and we become the light.

It's a beautiful idea,

but fighting is not
how we get there.

War is a failure of everything,

which is why
it's a test, not a war.

Test, war, test, war.

The disciples have been studying

the bardo texts
for over 1,000 years.

You really think
you know better?

Yes.

And it's not just
that I read some old books.

I felt it.

That red sun toxin
showed me something.

I couldn't figure it out,
but I knew it was important,

and then I read the bardo texts,

and it hit me...

The next step
in human evolution.

I don't claim to
fully understand it,

but... in my heart, I know
there's a purpose to everything,

and we don't find out what it is

by killing each other
in another war.

I just wish I could have
told bellamy.

Nonsense.

All that matters now
is saving madi

and killing cadogan.

There's no last war or test.

Bellamy's dead because
he believed that crap,

and I've heard enough!

What the hell was madi thinking?

She just left without
even talking to me.

Sounds like someone else I know.

No. All I ever did was
try to save people.

While putting yourself
in danger.

She's doing what I did.

Trying to fix everything
on her own.

Is this how my mom felt
every time?

Because I feel like
I can't get enough air.

Did I do that to her?

I didn't mean to.

And I'm sure your
mother knew that

just as madi doesn't
mean to hurt you.

It's not easy loving someone

who puts their own life at risk.

Madi went to bardo to save US.

I'm proud of her for that.

I killed bellamy to protect her

from the disciples,

not so she could turn
herself in.

Everyone I love dies.

I can't keep doing this,
not again.

If I lose madi, too...

I'll have nothing...

Be nothing.

I can show you how
to still your mind

if you let me, Clarke.

This side, this side, this side.

Ok.

Aah! My leg!

Why didn't you tell US?

Because I didn't feel it.
Now I do.

Over here. Easy.

It's over, it's over,
it's over, it's over.

It's ok, it's ok.

The rebar can wait.

She's losing too much blood.

I don't think it severed
the artery,

but we need to
cauterize the wound.

Well, that sounds like fun.

I just wish I had
a proper anesthetic for you.

Not as much as she does.

It's fine, John.

Murphy, put pressure on this.

Unh!

How about you distract me?

You're smashed,
and then we're laying down

on Kaylee's giant bed,

drinking Jo juice,
just you and me.

You hated playing primes.

Yeah, but you loved it.

That's enough for me.

Yeah, I did love it.

It was the first time
that I mattered.

That's not true.
That is not true.

You always mattered to me.

Hey. You ready?

Yeah.

When I say so,

you uncover the wound,
all right?

3, 2, 1, go.

It's over, it's over, it's over!

- It's over.
- Ok.

You did so good.
You just got to hang on

with US now, ok?

Hey. I heard screaming.

Did you find echo

or any sign of the others?

No. Whatever that explosion was,

the hallway is
completely collapsed.

For now, we assume they're ok,

but I was able to get
into the infirmary.

This is all I could find.
Maybe it will help.

I can't do surgery
out of my pack.

I need an actual
surgical theater,

sterile equipment, medicine.

I need to get to sanctum.

The helmet showed me the
stone was in the rec room.

We find it, open the bridge,
and jump over.

What about madi?

What about the rest
of our friends?

We will worry about them later.

Right now, you are the priority.

Yeah. Damn right.

We only have one problem.
We couldn't find the stone.

Just because you can't see
something doesn't mean it's not there.

Why is there an azgeda
symbol on the floor?

Don't know, don't care.

All I know is "x"
marks the spot.

Unh. John, something's wrong.

I'll get the gear.

Hey, hey. Stay with US.
Stay with US, all right?

Echo's azgeda. You should be
worried about her, too.

I am.

You're not acting like it.

Look. Everyone else
can take care

of themselves for
a little while, all right?

You are more important than
any other person in this universe.

Murphy, I need to repack this.

Hey, Thor. Let's go.

Don't go anywhere.

I hate to say this,

but if we don't get her
to sanctum soon,

she's not gonna make it.

- Agh!
- Aah!

Aah!

Let's just say he believes
he can walk on water.

And you don't?

I believe in you.

No.

No. Bring it back.
Bring it back!

I'm trying.
It's just a fragment.

I had to activate the
extra-synaptic gaba receptors

just to gain access.

It's an entirely
different pathway

from normal memories.

No excuses.

I want to see my daughter again.

If I push deeper,
I may be able to find more

of Becca's memories,

but it's risky.

Then be careful.

We need her memories intact.

Are you all right, madi?

I know. You're tired,

but you're doing so well.

Alie will get
the flame either way.

None of US...

Is ready for this.

I'll always be with you.

Ready for this.

None of... none of US.

None of US is ready.

We're not ready.

I am.

We're not ready.

Not you.

Especially... especially not you.

No!

What's wrong?

I saw everything.

Becca went to the other side.

She said he's not ready.

I'm done helping you.

Becca and I had a disagreement

a long time ago.

You're only seeing
her side of the story,

and she may have been
right back then,

but I've spent centuries
preparing US, improving US.

Now is our time.

Let's start again.

I said no!

Madi, stop it. You're
hurting yourself.

- Guards!
- You're hurting yourself!

Restrain her!
We can't let her harm herself.

Step aside, disciple levitt.

Take it easy! Stop resisting.

You'll only get hurt.

Again, Mr. Levitt.

Sir, we need to
do this another way.

There is no other way.
You're too close to this.

You're dismissed.

- Hold her down!
- Summon shoana.

Yes, sir.

Leave me alone! Aah!

For all mankind.

Levitt departing m-cap.

Madi, stop this.

Are you trying to kill yourself?

For the good of the many,

I have no choice
but to continue.

Go float yourself.

- Levitt.
- I jut came from the Shepherd.

The nano-tags from earth, he
wants those people brought over.

- Now.
- I thought he ordered US

to ignore them.

I suppose he changed his mind.

Who am I to question that?

Fine. I'll go tell the Shepherd
that you refused his order.

He can come here himself.

Wait.

Bringing them over.

It'll take me a few minutes

to relink to their tags.

Focus on your breath.

In... and out.

Let all earthly concerns
fall away.

This might work
for the commanders,

but mine is the only voice
in my head right now,

and you don't want to hear
what it has to say.

You don't have to be
a commander to find

the stillness in your mind,

but you do have to try.

How do you expect me
to focus right now

when my daughter is out there,

probably being tortured
right now?

You think I don't know that?

I love her, too, Clarke.

I know.

I know. I'm sorry.

It's working.

I'm next.

I don't want to be alone again.

Sometimes to do the right thing,

you have to take a risk.

Your mom knew that, too.

You're not alone.

What now?

Now we have faith.

Where are they?

Where's the bridge?
What is this?

War preparations.
We moved the bridge

to a strategically
advantageous location.

Where?

No. No.

Drop your weapons!
Hands in the air!

Hold your fire.

The gauze should keep
the bleeding under control

until we get you into surgery.

Come on, Jackson.

We both know how this ends.

Hey. Don't talk like that.

We are getting you out of here.

- Agh!
- Faster, raven.

You try doing this one good leg.

Agh! Unh!

I'm going to help them.

You hang in there.

Ugh!

You're exhausted.
I can take over.

I'm fine.

I need you to talk to emori.

Recovery is psychological
as much as it is medical.

She thinks she's gonna die.

Copy that.

- Ohh. Hey. Don't get up.
- Heh heh.

Unh!

Unh!

You always hated being helpless.

Everyone hates being helpless.

Not like you.

Our time on the ring,

you hated it.

Me...

Even though we were
trapped in a tin can

with nothing to do
and no way back to earth,

those were still some of
the best times of my life.

We were together and safe.

I love you, you know?

Emori, you are getting
through this.

We're almost to the stone.

When you get to it,

I want you to go to bardo.

- What?
- Forget taking me to sanctum.

If I'm right, then by now

madi already turned herself in.

Cadogan could already
have the code

to start the last war.

We can't let him doom
all of humanity.

Stopping him is more important.

Screw that.

Jordan claims it's a test,
not a war,

and for all we know,
that's crap, too.

I'm not letting you die.

We already lost bellamy.

It's too much, raven.

If it's a choice
between saving me

and saving everyone,

you choose everyone.

That's what I want.

Please.

John... he won't be able to,

but you, you're strong.

You can make the hard choice

like Clarke.

Like you did in the reactor.

- You can.
- Emori, no, I...

Emori, I made the wrong call.

I treated hatch like a pawn.

I... I should have given
him a choice.

I... I wouldn't do it again,

and I won't do it now.

I am done watching
the people I love die.

You...

Come on! Unh!

Y-You're being
stubborn, aren't you?

Heh. Yeah.
It's kind of my thing.

I am saving you...

And then I'm gonna save
everyone else.

That's kind of my thing, too.

Agh!

Come on.

Yes! It's the stone,
emori! We're...

Emori? Emori!

She's... she's not breathing!

I can keep her blood
circulating,

but we need to get
back to sanctum!

Work faster. Come on! Unh!

Agh!

Ugh! Unh!

He's been singing that

since we locked him up.

Fortunately,
he'll have to shut up to eat.

Stand aside, disciple.

Damn thing's broken again.

Since when are level 11s
on maintenance crew?

Since today.

Shut up!

We did all that just
to end up back here,

locked up in a cell
next to sheidheda.

Hey. We'll get madi back.

Think about it.
Someone brought US here.

That means we have help
on the inside.

It's just...

A matter of time.

Thank you.

For offering to come.

I told you I get it now,
what she means to you.

It's what hope means to me.

It's what I meant to bellamy.

You were everything to him.

That's how I'll remember him.

Sorry it took me so long.

Hate to interrupt,
but we need to get to madi.

What's the plan?

I don't know.

Isn't this your guys' specialty?

How would you do it?

Use the suits, go invisible.

No. That won't work.
Too many disciples

with helmets around.

Then we come in hot,
and we take them all out.

Or...

We create a distraction.

Well, since no one's shooting,

I suppose that means
you need me.

What would madi think?

That's enough, both of you.

We need to stop cadogan.

I tried, and for my troubles,

they locked me up here.

Here's the deal.

I'd love to kill you,
but you're right.

We need you.

We set you loose, and you draw
the disciples away from m-cap.

I'm not some petty distraction.

I'm the high king of sanctum.

Ok, your highness.

Then we walk out of here
and lock the door behind US.

Hmm.

Distraction it is.

Attention, sheep.

I'm here to kill your Shepherd.

Prisoner breach.
Send reinforcements to level 4!

Go! We have two
disciples in pursuit.

Unh! Agh!

Aah!

Ohh! Aah!

He's offline. Attack!

Aah!

Detain on level 4.

Is that the best you can do?!

Raaaah!

There's one symbol
still covered.

That's it! I can see
the last symbol now!

Get back!

Jackson!

We got to go now!

Thank you.

We're not losing anyone else.

We'll come back for Miller.
Let's go.

He's not here?

We knew that was a possibility.

We'll deal with sheidheda later.

I grew up with these people.

That's war, levitt.

It looks exciting
in hologram mode,

but this is the reality.

Come on.
Right now, all that matters

is getting to madi.

Looks like our diversion worked.

Levitt, you go in first.

They won't see you as a threat.

Madi.

Hey.

Madi? Madi?

Madi, I'm here. Madi?

Ma...

Something's wrong.

She's breathing.
Why isn't she responding?

I'm here.

I'm accessing the history now.

It's ok.

Madi! Madi, look at me.

Hey. Hi.

Say... say something.

Please say something.

Say something!

Oh, my baby.

My baby. My baby.

Well, how is she?

There's still neural activity,

but her brain stem shows
evidence of a massive stroke.

Well, neural activity
is good, right?

She's conscious,
but she can't move...

Anything.

She's locked in.

Clarke, she can hear you.

She knows you're here.

Hey, baby.

I'm here.

I'm right here.

Is it recoverable?

What? I...

No. The areas
of her brain responsible

for voluntary movement
have been destroyed.

I'm sorry.

No. No.

Clarke... no.

I'll do it.

I'm not letting you
live with this.

I love you so much.

Don't be scared.

Just listen to my voice, ok?

No. He got the code.

Oh, god.

Oh, I'm sorry.

Oh, god. I'm so sorry.

The test code? Are you sure?

Hologram mode.

He got what he needed
and left her here?

We have to stop him.

If one man represents
the entire human race...

It can't be him.

We can still stop him,
but we have to go now.

Are you sure?

You've wanted this
your whole life.

Before you,
I didn't have a life.

I'll come back.

I'll be back
after I stop the test,

and I promise I will not
let him win.
