GROUNDER CAMP

Clarke approaches Amelie who is training with her blades. Clarke waits until Amelie is done when she approaches her. Amelie looks at her and then takes a seat.

Clarke: I am sorry.

Amelie: I know you are sorry. I know you regret it but the Clarke I fell in love with wouldn't let people die if she had a way to save them.

Clarke: When Lexa-

Amelie: You cannot blame it on Lexa, Clarke. Lexa and Leta from a young age was thought to consider compassion as weakness. Your action yesterday was similar to what the council on the ark would have done. It was like sending a 100 kids to make more air for themselves. You're father died because he thought the peop;e deserved to know. The Clarke I knew would be like her father.

Clarke has tears on her face and Amelie sees it. She then takes Clarke's hand and turns her face towards her.

Amelie: I will always love you Clarke but from now on whatever decisions we have, we do it together. Okay?

Clarke: Okay.

Amelie and Clarke lean forward and kiss each other. The kiss gets even more wild. Both of them separate and look at each other with lust in their eyes. Amelie pulls Clarke towards their tent and the rest of their night is spend with them sharing their bodies with each other.

DEAD ZONE

Jaha is leading Murphy and four others through the Dead Zone as they search for the City of Light.

Richards: It'd sure be nice to have some sign that we're not just marching to our own deaths.

Jaha: We're not.

Harris: Hey, tell me if you know this one.

Murphy: Not again, please.

Harris: A Grounder and a Reaper walk into a bar. The bartender looks to the Grounder, he says, 'We don't serve your kind around here.' The Reapers gets up and leaves. 

Harris then chuckles at his own joke while the other don't.

Harris: You get it? Reapers eat Grounders.

Murphy: I will take Jaha's staff and beat you to death with it.

Jaha gives Monty a disappointed look for the violent comment.

Jaha: John.

Harris: Or this one. Uh, an Arker, a Grounder, and a Mountain Man walk into a bar. Arker says 'I'll take some moonshine.' Grounder says 'I'll take some, too.' The Mountain Man, he says--

Suddenly Harris explodes which also knocks everyone off their feet. Another person in their group scrambles away in terror and she quickly blows up, too.

Jaha: No one move! We're in the middle of a minefield.

Murphy: Anybody else want a sign?
