Earth-The Bunker

Finn:Hey.

Clarke:Hi.

Clarke started stroking Finn's hair.

Clarke:It's almost dawn. We should probably get going, can't just lie around in bed all day.

Finn:Or we could lie just lie around in bed all day.

Clarke:Finn...you know that last night wasn't just about needing someone. I needed you. I wanted it to be you. You understand that, right?

Finn:Sure. And I should probably tell you that last night, for me, wasn't really about you. I just wanted to have my first Earth sex.

They giggle.

Finn:You were around. Passably cute.

Clarke snorts.

Clarke:Jackass.

Abby coughing.

door opens.

Sergeant:Prisoner. Step to the rear of the cell.

Abby:Have we heard from Raven?

Jaha:You can leave us alone, Sergeant.

Sergeant:Sir.

He exits

Abby:Has Raven started her descent?

Jaha hands Abby tablet.

Abby:Environmental numbers.

Jaha:As of this morning, oxygen is down sixteen percent. CO2 and methane are heading to red levels.

Abby:Our projections said we wouldn't be critical for another three months.

Jaha:Your husband's projections were wrong. The council has granted you work release pending review. Medical is overwhelmed. Dizziness, fatigue, vision problems.

Abby:It's pulmonary toxicity. I know how they feel.

Jaha:The prison section has been on half-air since midnight.

Jaha pulls out oxygen mask.

Abby:No. I'm not gonna take more than my share. We start choosing who gets extra O2 and were one step closer to choosing who lives and who dies.

Jaha:Abby...the council approved Kane's population reduction plan three hours ago.

Abby looks hurt.

Abby:You voted without me?

Jaha:We followed the rules of order.

Abby looked away.

Jaha:It wouldn't have mattered. Their approval was unanimous. We start in twelve hours.
