The doors opened as Faye led the others into the room. "Whoa." Octavia stood up and Diyoza turned to them.

Octavia noticed the way Faye looked, she'd seen it so many times on her and in the mirror. Despite their differences, they both loved Bellamy, and were closer than they let on. "I'm so sorry, Octavia." Faye said as she held Octavia tightly.

"I know. So am I." 

"No guards?" Diyoza asked, looking into the hall.

"Faye threatened not to help with the Flame if they got in her way." Raven said. "Thanks for playing that one cards down, by the way." She looked at Octavia.

"I thought it was good leverage, knowing you would eventually show up. We're glad you did." Octavia walked over to Miller and gave him a hug. "Just hug me back, Miller." Octavia pleaded.

When they heard footsteps, Raven, Clarke, and Faye drew their weapons. "Wait!" Diyoza told them as a blonde girl with short hair ran in. "She's not one of them." 

"Clarke. Faye. Raven. Miller." She addressed everyone in the room she didn't recognize. "You described them well." 

"Soon we'll have to get a copyright on our own lives." Faye says to Clarke, tiring of everyone stealing their idea of telling stories to their children.

"This is Hope, my daughter." Miller looked at Diyoza. "Time dilation's a bitch." She shrugged. "How'd you get out?" 

"Doesn't matter. Right now, we need to get ourselves to the Stone Room and get out of Bardo. We can get acquainted later. Let's go." Hope said, leading them out of the room. 

"Reminds me of someone." Faye said as her and Octavia ran into the hall.

"Hey. Where's Echo?" Raven stopped Hope.

"She'll catch up." Hope shrugged. 

"She will, huh? What's going on?" Diyoza asked. "Hope."

"She's getting revenge for Bellamy." Octavia folded her arms. 

"Talk now." Diyoza ordered her daughter like she was a soldier.

"All I know is that we have..." She looked down at her watch, "45 minutes to get you off this planet." Hope said. 

"What happens in 45 minutes?" Miller asked.

"I don't know." Hope admitted. "Really. Levitt helped her with something, and she didn't tell me what it was because she knew you'd get it out of me and try and stop her." Hope insisted as she explained all she knew.

"Levitt wouldn't help her. What did she do to him?" Octavia asked. 

"He's alive, okay?"

"Let's move." Octavia began in the opposite direction they were going. 

Faye was very confused by all three of them, but followed Octavia. 

"Aunty O, where are you going?" Hope asked as she followed them.

"To find Levitt." The group followed Octavia, trusting she knew where she was going. She stopped at a door, opening it and running in. "Levitt." 

They found the man tied to a chair with his face and shirt covered in blood and his mouth gagged. Octavia ran to see if he was awake.

"What happened?" She asked, removing the gag.

"I failed. She killed two people in front of me, and... I broke." He admitted. Octavia ran behind him, beginning to undo the binds when Clarke stopped her.

"We need to find out what Echo's planning." Clarke said. 

"The key has landed." Levitt looked at the group, seeing Faye. He must have recognized her from Octavia's memories.
