Kane is locked in the grounder prison trying to get a chain off his ankle.
Jaha: Kane, stop. If they'd wanted to kill they would've done it already.
Kane: Two days without food or water.
Jaha: Come on, how many times on the Ark did we go two days without water? This is not how our story ends, Marcus. We didn't wind up in the same train station on the ground just to die in it. We still got work to do.
Kane: How can you be so sure?
Jaha: My son told me
Kane stands up when he notices two grounders entering. They come and take Jaha who fights back
Kane: Stop! We came in peace! We came in peace, please!
Gustus: You speak of peace when you send an assassin into one of my villages.
Kane: What are you talking about?
Gustus: Blood must have blood. One of you will die here, today by the other's hand. We will hear the terms of your surrender from the man who lives.
Jaha and Kane argue both trying to sacrifice themselves until one speaks to Lexa the seemingly young girl observing them
Jaha: What's your name?
Lexa: Lexa
Jaha: Lexa, I'm Thelonious and this is Marcus. Your commander spoke of an assassin in the village?
Lexa: Yes, eighteen of our people were murdered. Elders, children.
Kane: We had nothing to do with it
Lexa: It doesn't matter, the commander thinks you did. One of you must pick up the knife that is our way.
Jaha: and if we refuse
Lexa: Then the commander will use it to slit both of your throats.
Jaha: There has to be some other way to resolve this. Something that we haven't thought of yet.
Lexa: there isn’t
Kane: She’s right they’re not budging
Jaha: We can offer a trade, these people are primitive I've seen how they live. Our technology our medicine, all we ask for in return is peace
Kane and Jaha argue more but Jaha decides to take a knife to Lexa though Kane tries to stop him
Gustus enters the cell while Jaha holds Lexa hostage
Jaha: Take off these chains
Kane: Please she's just an innocent girl
Lexa speaks in Trigedasleng: He made his choice, this one's mine.
Lexa quickly disarms Jaha
Lexa: I’ve heard what I needed to hear
Grounders: yes commander
The grounders place on Lexa's armor
Kane says to Lexa: You’re the commander
Lexa: I've learned much about you, your intentions are honorable you desire for peace is true. Free him. Later we will talk, in the meantime, your friend will be used to send a message.
The grounders begin to beat Jaha
Kane: No! No, please stop! Stop, please!
