(PEOPLE SCREAMING)

(SPEAKING TRIGEDASLENG)

Running is not a plan.

It's not running. It's surviving.

For how long? This threat will find us all eventually.

The boy is right. We regroup and come back stronger.

It's a legitimate battle strategy.

I have a better one. Kill their leader, Jaha.

Now that's a strategy I could support.

Unfortunately, he's not their leader, though.

He's being controlled just like everyone else by that...

What?

Nothing.

Never mind. Forget it.

PIKE: John, this isn't a time for...

(CLANKING)

(DOOR CLANGS)

Who's ready to take the key?

None of us is ever gonna take a key.

ALIE: We didn't do this to him.

Someone is unchained.

Find them.

(GRUNTS)

(SCREAMING)

(GRUNTS)

Come on, grab the keys. She's gonna send for reinforcements.

You said Jaha was controlled.

Tell me what you know.

The smart play here is going for the tunnels while we still can.

Before we're overrun by Alie's groupies.

If you have information that can help us...

We don't have time for this. Talk!

Jaha's backpack.

PIKE: What about it?

All right, it runs the A.I.,

and if we can destroy it, I'm pretty sure we can destroy her.

I know where it is.

I saw them move it into the temple before I was captured.

They'll expect us to run.

We can use that.

The A.I. will follow those who do, while we go for the pack.

INDRA: We?

PIKE: I can't do this alone.

Do you wanna save your people, or not?

(SPEAKING TRIGEDASLENG)

Move, let's go. Hurry!

PIKE: What are you waiting for?

The bad guys are following them, right?

I may as well take my chances with you two.

Your father would be proud.

So how do we do it?

Carefully.

I'm sorry, we didn't anticipate what they were planning.

It's all right, you served well.

You're home now.

And besides, we're already rounding them up.

The first of the prisoners is on the cross as we speak.

That didn't take long, did it?

I understand now.

They're going for the backpack.

Then we delay the migration.

That's unnecessary.

It's almost complete.

We'll use Emori again.

(GASPS)

Emori, you know, you can correct your defects here.

I would, if I had any.

What can I do for you, Alie?

Your friend John Murphy is headed back to the temple to do harm.

I need your help to stop him.

♪ (THEME SONG) ♪

Everywhere I looked, there were fins. And teeth. And blood.

I knew if they saw me, I'd be next,

so I just floated there, waiting, praying they'd swim on.

-But they didn't. -(DOOR OPENS)

She's here. Maybe she changed her mind.

The boats return at nightfall. Then you leave.

-Forever. -Luna, let us explain.

-I said no. -No, you need to hear this.

There's something out there that is going to destroy us all.

Whatever it is, it can't reach us here.

It grazed me with its teeth.

We need to talk.

That's my cue.

Rising up from the deep came something massive.

A huge beast with a...

I thought you'd want this back.

Thank you.

And my sword?

Your weapons will be on the boat.

Well, so much for the great Luna, the savior of those in need.

You don't want saving.

You want someone to fight with you.

Damn right, we're at war.

Luna, you can't just ignore that.

Lincoln would've wanted you to help us.

By becoming Commander?

I don't think so. Lincoln knew our rules.

We take people in who are done fighting. Done killing.

Look at you. Fighting is all you know.

Death is all you know.

Lincoln would have never brought that here.

(APPLAUSE)

RAVEN: I can't believe how many people Alie has now.

You see this cluster? It's a building.

But all this, these are minds.

It's full of them, thousands. She's taken Polis too.

Alie's army is growing.

The longer we wait to go in, the stronger she gets.

Go in? Raven, no, our mission is...

To wait for Clarke. Like always.

But what if we can do this ourselves?

We have Becca's backdoor password. We have me.

You said the moment we use the password, Alie will know.

She will. I think.

That means we have one shot at this.

Is there a kill code in that book you didn't tell me about?

Then we stick with the plan. Clarke gives the Flame to Luna.

The A.I. in the Flame gives Luna the kill code.

We enter it here, taking our one shot. And Bob's your uncle.

I hate that expression.

(SIGHS)

Good. Let's keep mapping. What else do you see?

Perimeter's clear. Bryan and Miller have watch. How's it going in here?

That good, huh?

Take a break? I could use some help securing the south airlock.

RAVEN: Go!

Take the book if you don't trust me.

You memorized Becca's password.

Then I guess you'll have to trust me.

MONTY: I'm worried about her.

-She hasn't stopped for two days. -Neither have you.

Yeah, but I'm just trying to keep up.

-I'm serious. -(CHUCKLES)

I look at Alie's code, and I see physics subroutines and collision meshes.

But Raven sees the City of Light. It's not just code to her. It's real.

Aren't we going to the airlock?

Already sealed.

-You okay? -I'm fine. Yeah.

I was just thinking.

It's been two days with no one trying to kill us.

-It won't last. -I know.

But are we just supposed to spend the time between attacks dreading the next one?

Not like we have much of a choice.

Maybe we do.

-You're still you, right? -(CHUCKLES)

Artificial intelligence hasn't taken over your brain?

I'm still me.

Awesome.

Oh, my God.

(SPEAKING TRIGEDASLENG)

-Thanks. -You're welcome.

Um...

Did that shark story really happen to you?

(CHUCKLES)

Some of it. Gets better every time I tell it.

Are you really from the sky?

Yup.

I've never even been off this rig.

Trust me, that's a good thing. (CHUCKLES)

-I'm Jasper. -Shay.

Good to meet you.

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

Jasper's actually smiling.

Clarke, let it go.

-We can't just leave. -It's not like we have much of a choice.

Maybe we do.

What are you talking about?

I'm talking about putting this into her head without asking.

(WHISPERING) No way, Clarke.

This isn't like Emerson, he was trying to kill us.

You think I don't know that?

Clarke, we don't have to do this.

We can fight, we can go back to Arkadia. We arm up.

Fight who? It's an army of our own people.

I don't like this any more than you do.

But if Raven's right, then the code on this thing could stop Alie.

Give me a better idea.

We'll stay here. It's the only way they'll leave you alone with her.

Even Alie gives people a choice.

We gave Luna a choice.

She said no.

(BOTH PANTING)

I...

-I should get back. -No. No, wait.

Reality can wait.

(CHUCKLES)

(SIGHS) I haven't felt this way in so long.

-Happy? -Yeah.

And safe.

Finally. Come on. I found something.

-It's right here. -What is?

Look at all these layers of security.

More than anything else in the entire Alie code.

-Firewall? -More like a fortress.

She calls it the citadel. It overlooks the entire city.

It's separated by water, like a moat.

Slow down. What are you saying?

I'm saying she's hiding something.

-No, no. -Monty,

with Becca's password, I can edit the code. I'm sure of it.

We've covered this.

We map it from the outside. We don't go in.

If we don't go in, we won't know what she's protecting there!

We'll tell the others when they come home. We decide together.

-What if they don't come home? -They're coming home.

And they're bringing back a supercomputer built for this.

You may be freakishly good, Raven,

but you're not an A.I.

(SIGHS)

I hate this.

I know. Maybe some sleep would help.

I'm just gonna keep mapping, in case she has any other vulnerabilities.

(TAPPING ON KEYBOARD)

We'll do it together.

I promise, I won't slow you down. I'll just keep you company.

(LUNA SPEAKING TRIGEDASLENG)

(LAUGHTER)

-Were they born here? -A few.

Most were orphaned by war, or ran from one they didn't believe in.

Like you, from the conclave.

What did Titus tell you about me?

That you are a coward.

A traitor to the blood.

That sounds like Titus.

Lexa's death must have been hard for him.

She was his favorite.

You cared for her.

Yes.

Lexa was special.

She was working toward peace.

Blood must not have blood.

You can finish what she started.

I have peace right here.

Luna. The Flame is your birthright.

Take it. Please.

You're the only one who can save us.

How many lives would be lost to pay for those I would save?

Some causes are worth killing for.

Not to me.

Ascende superius.

(GRUNTING)

I didn't flee the conclave because I was afraid I would lose.

I fled because I knew I would win.

(GRUNTS)

You should be grateful, Clarke.

After I was forced to kill my own brother in the first round,

I was matched against Lexa in the second.

Fate is funny that way, don't you think?

You'll get this back when you leave.

Remember, don't shoot to kill. We need them.

Why did your creator leave you?

I don't know.

But when I see her again, I will ask her.

EMORI: You really think she's in the Flame?

ALIE: Yes.

And if I'm right, it contains the minds of all those to whom it was connected.

Beginning with my creator.

(GUNSHOTS)

No, no. Not her.

They know we're here. Bar the door.

I'll get their guns, we're gonna need 'em.

JOHN: He's powering the pod...

PIKE: What about the secret passage?

She'll know about that now.

-I'll lock it up. -No, don't.

She didn't see us come in.

Besides, we need that later to escape.

Thank you, Titus.

(THUDS)

John...

That's a nuclear fuel cell, John.

You'll irradiate the entire city.

So, how do we destroy it?

Carefully.

-Where's Jasper? -Saying goodbye to his new friend.

Sorry, Cap, we gotta take him back.

Your gear.

You get your weapons once you land.

Inside.

The Flame?

Remember, Clarke.

-A path of violence is a choice. -There it is.

When the choice is fight or die, there is no choice.

(GROANING)

They took the Flame. They're locking us in.

Hey! What is this?

Luna's people are attacking her.

Alie's here.

You could come back, you know.

Something tells me it's not that simple.

Besides, it's nice here.

Trust me, I'd just mess it up.

(DOOR SLAMS)

(MAN GRUNTS)

Shay, run before...

(GRUNTS)

-She's here. -He knows.

Go. And tell your people not to take the chip.

We can't let her warn the others.

Run, now, go!

(SCREAMS)

No.

(GROANS)

-DERRICK: Leave her alone! -(GRUNTING)

LUNA: What are you doing?

-Derrick! -(SCREAMS)

-Why are you doing this? -Touch her and I'll kill you! No!

(YELLS) No!

(MUFFLED SCREAMING)

(GRUNTING)

How did Alie even find this place?

There was a drone at Niylah's.

She must have followed us, looking for the Flame, and now she has it.

-(MUFFLED YELLING) -No! Stop!

(GASPS)

(COUGHING)

(PANTING)

Take the key and this will end.

What's happened to you?

JASPER: He's not himself.

It's that chip in his hand!

(GASPS)

Jasper is decreasing the efficiency of the process.

He needs to take the key.

(GROANS)

(GROANS)

Again.

(GROANS)

(MUFFLED SCREAMING)

She's gonna put the A.I. in Luna.

She'd have to chip her first.

If Luna's chipped before she gets the A.I.,

Alie's gonna know everything.

We'll never be able to stop her. We can't let that happen.

-(BANGING) -Hey!

DERRICK: No!

(LUNA CHOKING)

-(BANGING) -(GRUNTS)

(PANTING)

I'm sorry, Luna.

(MUFFLED GROANING)

DERRICK: Okay, I'll take it if you stop.

I'll do it.

I'll do it.

It's okay.

(LUNA GASPING)

(MOANING)

Derrick?

You just need to take the key.

(LUNA MOANING)

(BANGING)

Hurry. This door won't last much longer.

You're gonna have to pick up a gun, then.

You're all going to die here, John.

ALIE: Hurry, Thelonious. The migration is not yet complete.

We're still searching for the tunnel entrance.

When the guards bring down the door, I'll be there.

Good.

John Murphy was with Clarke Griffin

when they removed the second A.I. from the last Commander.

If she won't help us insert it into Luna, we will need him alive.

I'm coming for you.

So, what will you do with Clarke?

I will give her the same choice as the rest.

Join us or...

What is it?

Someone is accessing my code with an administrative login.

Accessing it? From where?

The intrusion is coming from Arkadia.

Arkadia?

They could be Jacopo, Sinclair or Monty Greene.

Jacopo Sinclair is dead.

-How do you know that? -Not important.

The login was coded by my creator.

I can't log them out.

-Disconnect from Arkadia. -That would be unwise.

The migration is still incomplete.

And the backpack is now compromised.

Without Arkadia's mainframe,

the mobile unit would be my sole power source.

If they destroy it,

I will be terminated.

(TAPPING ON KEYBOARD)

They're inside the citadel.

If it's Monty.

I can stop him.

How?

-Are you crazy? -Don't!

Don't.

I'm in her citadel.

So many doors are locked.

But I can delete locks.

I was right. She's hiding something here.

I just have to get past...

Someone's in the way.

-Someone? -Yeah, a person.

I can't get around them.

Why not? Who is it?

HANNAH: Monty?

Monty, can you hear me?

Mom?

Monty...

Wish I could see you.

Maybe I will someday.

She sounds so real.

Alie processed it.

But it's her mind. It's her.

-Can she hear me? -You have to type.

We need more time. Hannah, keep him talking.

Monty?

Monty, you still there?

Alie wants us to stop. That's why she sent her.

She doesn't want us to see what's on the other side.

HANNAH: What you did to me, I know it hurts.

I'm sorry.

I know.

I wanna take that pain away.

That's all any of us want.

ALIE: We're almost there, Hannah. Keep going.

We can be together again.

Don't you want that?

What happens if we delete her code?

-Monty... -What happens?

She'll be gone. Forever.

I love you, son.

(SNIFFLES)

How do I do it?

How do I do it?

You hit enter.

Monty?

I love you, too.

(SOBS)

Get out of there, Alie. Leave Arkadia. Do it now.

I told you, if I remove myself from Arkadia,

the mobile unit will be my sole power source.

MONTY: Do it. Shut her down.

I'm through the last door.

I see it.

It's a kill switch. All I have to do is...

-(POWERING DOWN) -No.

No. No. No!

What happened?

What happened?

She must have pulled herself from the mainframe

before I had time to hit the kill switch.

This was all for nothing?

No. Monty, no.

(SOBS) Now we know there's a kill switch.

A kill switch we can't use, because the code is gone!

This is your fault! We were supposed to wait for the others!

You wanna take the chip again? Is that it? You wanna go back in there?

Here!

Take it!

(SOBS)

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

(BANGING)

Crap. It's about to go. Just tell me where to hit this thing.

PIKE: Indra, the gun. Please.

I require 60 seconds to complete the migration.

(BANGING ON DOOR)

Either we do this now, or we run.

Okay, do it.

Just don't hit the fuel cell. Here.

Talk to him, Emori. You can't let him do this.

John. Please, John, listen to me.

It's not just Alie in there, John. It's all of us.

Forget about the nuke. I'm telling you.

Me. Emori.

You are making a mistake.

The minds of everyone who has entered the City of Light

are on that server.

ALIE: Thirty seconds.

If you destroy it, our minds will be gone forever.

I'll be gone forever, John.

ALIE: Ten seconds.

(BANGING ON DOOR)

I can't.

(GRUNTS)

Did it work?

Are you okay?

(SIGHS)

You were too late.

Let's go.

Can't let her see the tunnel.

JAHA: They used a tunnel.

Find it.

They could've destroyed everything today.

And they will try again.

It's all right, Thelonious.

The migration was a success.

The transmission from the escape pod is complete.

They can't get to us here.

This place was safe until we got here.

(CLANKING)

(WHIMPERS)

(PANTING)

(COUGHING)

Oh, my God.

A machine...

P level.

Let's go.

(LUNA MOANING)

(GASPS)

(DOOR OPENS)

No.

No.

Take it and the child will be fine.

(SIGHS)

Cut the child and she'll submit.

GIRL: Luna.

(GRUNTS)

(SCREAMS)

(GRUNTING)

(PANTING)

ALIE: We can't let Clarke have the Nightblood.

Kill her.

Derrick, this isn't you.

Please, Derrick, no.

(GRUNTING)

(PANTING)

(CLATTERS)

BELLAMY: Be careful.

LUNA: (SOBBING) Oh, no.

-Oh, no. -You okay?

LUNA: I'm so sorry. BELLAMY: I got you.

(SOBBING)

(WAILING)

I'm fine. They couldn't break me.

Shay?

I'm sorry.

It's what we do.

(SOBBING) I'm so sorry.

(WAILING)

I'm so sorry.

(LUNA WEEPING)

Any one of them could be chipped and we'd never know.

CLARKE: If they are, they'll make their move before we put the Flame in Luna.

Stay sharp.

-You changed your mind? -CLARKE: Quiet.

The ceremony is about to begin.

CLARKE: Luna, wait.

I'm so sorry.

But now you see what we're facing.

An enemy that will do anything to win.

She won't stop until she has everyone.

LUNA: People I love died today.

Needlessly, at my hand.

I can't let that happen again.

As we prepare

to give our brothers and sister to the sea,

we honor their lives.

(SPEAKING TRIGEDASLENG)

(ALL REPEATING)

If we're gonna do this, we have to hurry it.

Alie will send reinforcements.

And we have to find someplace private to perform the ascension.

You believe that to defeat an enemy who will stop at nothing,

you must stop at nothing.

How is that different than, "Blood must have blood"?

Wait a second, Luna...

You can't just...

(CLATTERING)

No...

Now what?
