Several minutes later, Finn has received the antidote. Octavia too. Raven leaves to get him water for when he wakes up.
Clarke and Skye sit quietly next to Finn. Clarke absentmindedly runs her fingers through the boy's hair.
The radio suddenly cracks. It's Abby. "Hello? Skye? Clarke? Can you hear me? Hello?"
Skye looks up. "We're here."
"Oh, thank god. The um... the storm is passing. How's Finn doing?"
Clarke glances at him. "I think he'll be okay."
"Well, that's thanks to you. I'm so proud of you both. Your father would be so proud of you girls."
Skye stands abruptly, the chair falling over in the process. "Don't talk about him." She spits, putting extra emphasis on the first word.
Abby pauses. "Honey. I know you. I know something else is wrong."
Clarke sniffs. "Dad is dead because of you. You turned him in."
Skye's icy eyes fill with tears, but she doesn't let them fall. "Wells told me everything before- he let us believe that he did it. So that we'd hate him instead of you."
Abby's voice cracks with emotion. "This was never supposed to happen. Jaha was supposed to talk him out of it."
Skye walks over to the radio. "I'm done talking to you." She hits a few buttons and turns the signal off.

Skye climbs to the third floor to find Octavia alone with the Grounder. She carries with her, a damp cloth.
She approaches the man and slowly removes the knife that is still embedded in his skin. She tries cleaning his hand, but he closes his fist. "I need to clean this, or it'll get infected." She says.
He looks at her. She sighs. Octavia takes the cloth from her. "Let me try."
Skye steps back to make room for the other. "Octavia... I'm really sorry. I never wanted to hurt him. I just... we needed to try. I'm sorry."
She purses her lips. "I know... you're welcome by the way."
Skye huffs out a laugh. "I'll um... leave you two alone then."
