97 years after a nuclear war, human kind is living in space. 100 juvenile delinquents are sent down to Earth to see if the planet is habitable.

Discovering that Jasper may still be alive, Clarke, Bellamy, Finn, Wells and Murphy head out to find him. On the Ark, Abby is determined to prove Earth is habitable, and enlists a mechanic to craft an escape pod.

As a dangerous, acidic fog approaches, Clarke, Finn and Wells set out in search of a seaweed-like plant to make an antibiotic poultice for Jasper's wounds, while a vulnerable young girl follows when Bellamy takes a group out hunting for food.

Clarke is still on her own in the white room, frantically attempting to make sense of her bizarre surroundings. Lincoln and Octavia's plan is ruined and an enemy returns.

Clarke wants answers from the President. Abby performs emergency surgery. Octavia will do anything to find Lincoln.
