How do you stop the end of the world AND Ice Nation?
But isnt that why we love this show?
Its always packed with compelling story, and the season 4 premiere is no different.

Octavia sees Indra being taken down from a cross and runs to tell her she took care of Pike.
Clarke is trying to help the wounded, but it doesnt take long before the crowd turns on her.
They blame Wanheda for all the death and destruction surrounding them.
Roan, who was shot by Kane in thefirst part of the season 3 finale, survived.
Abby and Clarke rush to him and see that theres no exit wound.
They need to take out the bullet to save him, but Echo has other plans.
Yeah, everyones favorite flip-flopper is back.
An ambassador steps up and says, Like hell it is.
(I love this lady!)
She explains that until a new commander can ascend, the capitol will be ruled by ambassadors.
She says if Azgeda wants it, theyll have to take it by force.
Consider it taken, Echo says after slicing kick off the womans neck.
Clarke is able to get most of her people to safety.
All who are left are Abby, Kane, Jaha, Octavia, and Bellamy.
She informs them that there are 1,000 Azgeda warriors in Polis and they need to be removed by force.
What dont we know?
Abby asks her daughter.
And she has a plan: surrender.
He says that Ontari should be with her people; they thank him by beating him up.
While hes there, an Azgeda soldier tells her that Skaikru is surrendering.
He whispers, It worked, to Kane.
It was all a ruse!
Inside the commanders chambers, Octavia cuts herself out of the shroud and kills the guards inside.
She lets Abby and Clarke in the room so they can save Roan.
Only in this world would you have to go through such an elaborate stunt tosavesomeones life.
Azgeda warriors fill the room before Clarke, Abby, and O can get out.
Even though Clarke tells them they were trying to save him, Echo doesnt care.
In her best Ice Queen impression, Echo calls for her warriors to kill Wanheda.
Luckily, thats right when Roan wakes up.
Hes been gone from his people for a long time and they arent necessarily loyal to him.
Echo says that Wanhedas head will get them on his side.
So he calls for her.
), everyone is settling in.
Monty and Harper are able to sex it up.
And Jasper is able to … well, its not good.
Hes about to kill himself when Monty knocks on the door.
He, thankfully, doesnt go through with it and goes with Monty to listen to Ravens discovery.
Radiation levels are already rising.
Since hes already living on borrowed time, he decides to go watch the sunrise.
Maybe these three should pay better attention to their friend now?
Its always something with you, he says, perfectly summing up Clarke.
Science is our only hope, she says.
(Good to see STEM is still important in the future!)
The problem is if Roan lets Wanheda live, his own people will killhimwithin the week.
Thats when she offers the ultimate bargaining chip: the flame.
Its the only way to prove what shes saying is true.
Roan goes before Polis and tells them that no one else will die today.
He will rule over Polis until another Nightblood ascends and then he reveals the flame.
A woman in the crowd says its blasphemous that he holds that, as hes not a priest.
He ignores her and tells everyone that Lexas coalition of the 13th clan will stay intact.
Reluctantly, Echo gives Bellamy a medallion from Roan that will keep them safe wherever they go.
Then she asks, You think well ever be able to trust each other again?
Her alliances areveryhard to keep up with.
Kane and Abby, who are staying behind to protect the coalition, watch them walk away.
Kane:The youth have inherited the earth.Abby:And they have six months to save it.
The last image we see is of a woman in the Dead Zone beingturned into dustfrom the radiation storms.
Will our heroes be able to find a solution in time?
Will the coalition hold until then?
What will happen to it when everyone finds out the truth?
100 (or just 7) extras:
Emori cant stay in Polis her kind isnt wanted there.
I hope they dont go away for too long!
Sad Jasper is one of the most tragic turnsThe 100has ever taken.
Never change, Murphy.
All it takes is a knowing-motherly look from Abby and she crumbles.
I loved her mom, Clarke cries.
I know, Abby replies.
Before you know it, youll deserve to survive.
How did Raven access those news stories about Fukushima?
Did the internet survive the apocalypse!?
But seriously how about that Indra-Kane hug?
?
