"when will you be coming home?"

Alice wakes up from the yells of delinquents outside, telling everyone to look. She shakes Monty and Jasper awake, telling them to follow her. Once outside, they watch as an escape pod wiz past them. Sparks ignite from the escape pod before it launches a parachute.

To the left of Alice, she spots Bellamy. Shirtless. She couldn't help but look down at his abs, admiring them. His arms strong and bulky. Bellamy takes notice of Alice staring at him, sending her a wink before looking back up at the sky.

Bellamys expression is unreadable. Was it confusion? fear? Alice can't tell. She watches as he gulps and he looks away from the escape pod.

"Looks like we're getting help." Monty tells Jasper and Alice, taking her attention away from Bellamy.

Jasper puts his arms around their shoulders, "I sure hope so."

Clarke and Finn walk up to Alice, Monty and Jasper as they are sitting together deep in conversation. "Mind if we steal Alice?" Clarke asks with a serious expression on her face, grabbing Alices arm dragging her away from the two boys.

Alice looks at Clarke and Finn, confused. "What's going on?" Alice asks the two as Clarke continues to drag her.

"Bellamys gone with his gear. Alone. He wants something from inside the escape pod." Clarke tells her, finally letting go of Alices arm.

"What would he want from the escape pod?" Alice asks the two.

"The radio. He's spent every minute since we landed making sure no one on The Ark finds out we're alive. Clark responds as she picks up her pace.

Then it makes sense to Alice. His unreadable face before is fear, concern. He did something. She isn't sure exactly what he did, but she assumes the gun he had was involved. She refrains from telling Clarke and Finn incase she was wrong. She really hopes she is wrong.

Alice, Finn and Clarke split up as the scavenge the woods looking for the escape pod. Alice walks for a while. Nothing. She sighs, losing hope in finding him. She retraces her steps, hoping to find the others along the way.

Alices mouth gets covered by a hand as they drag her behind a tree. They uncover her mouth and she instantly gasps for air, looking up. Bellamy. She harshly shoving him back, "What is wrong with you?"

Bellamy ignores her question asking one himself, "What are you doing out here alone?"

Alice crosses her arms together defensively, "I'm not alone, Finn and Clarke are out here too. Looking for the escape pod. They know you're out here looking the radio. Why? What did you do."

Bellamy gets taken aback by Alice his eyes darting around her face, unsure of what to say. He opens his mouth to talk before Clarke runs up to the two, Finn and Raven following behind. "Hey. Where is it?" Clarke questions, staring him down.

"They're getting ready to kill 300 people up there. To save oxygen. And I can guarantee you it won't be council members. It'll be working people. Your people."

Alices heart sunk, immediately thinking about her parents. She looks up at the sky, hoping that her parents aren't apart of the 300. She wants to see them again, be with them. She loves and misses her parents dearly.

Finn shoves Bellamy back asking where the radio is. Bellamy continues to deny that he knows what they  are talking about, shoving Finn back.

Raven chimes in looking at Bellamy, "Bellamy Blake? They're looking everywhere for you."
