The 100/Recap/S5/E02 Red Queen

Season 5, Episode 2: Red Queen
46 days after Praimfaya, Octavia and the delegates in the bunker discuss a punishment for a thief. During this assembly, they hear Clarke 's knocking on the bunker door. Kane and Abby go and investigate if Clarke may be trying to get inside the bunker. In attempt to open the bunker door, they discover that it is sealed shut due to the tons of rubble from the Polis tower collapsing over them.

Later, a Skaikru member named Kara fakes a seizure and locks some of the Skaikru members in the farm area. While Grounders begin gathering the Skaikru that are not in the farm area, Jaha is stabbed by a Grounder, but is spared by Octavia due to his expertise as an engineer. With the help from Jaha, Indra, and Gaia, Octavia resolves a problem of trying to opening the farm area door and shows that she is a capable leader. When some of the Grounders go against her leadership, she kills them, telling them, "You are Wonkru, or you are the enemy of Wonkru. Choose." Those remaining bow before her.

After opening the door, Octavia and the Grounders captures Kara and her coup members. As Octavia, Kane, and Abby rush to Jaha's aid, Jaha dies of his injuries. As punishment for Kara and the guilty Skaikru involved in the coup, Octavia instructs them to fight to the death for their freedom. It cuts to six years later where Octavia and her advisers watch over Wonkru warriors fighting to the death, the main feature of the punishment system they created.
