Skaikru had to decide who got a spot in the bunker in The 100‘s “The Chosen,” and there was no way that was going to be easy. But by episode’s end, some people had another possible way to survive the death wave that was almost there.
Here are the best quotes from “The Chosen.”

“They imagined their futures. You try to rip that from them now and, believe me, they will fight.”
Kane: “Any sort of resistance will cost us all our lives. Our best course of action is to hold a lottery for the remaining spots … It was your idea.”
Jaha: “That was for the chance to survive.”
Abby: “And how is this any different?”
Jaha: “Until 20 minutes ago, our people believed they were safe. They let down their guard. They picked their bunks. They unpacked their bags. They imagined their futures. You try to rip that from them now and, believe me, they will fight.”
“I told you there were no good guys, but that’s not true. There are. You are.”
Abby: “I love you, Clarke. Don’t ever forget that.”
Clarke: “This isn’t goodbye. Mom, I know what you saw in that vision, but I’m a Nightblood now, I mean, right? Maybe it worked.”
Abby: “Clarke, listen to me. I told you there were no good guys, but that’s not true. There are. You are.”
Clarke: “Even though I didn’t want to open the door?”
Abby: “Yes. There was no good choice.”
Clarke: “There never is.”
“We can’t all be essential personnel or have a sister who’s Queen of the Grounders.”
Murphy: “You killed us when you opened that door, you know that, right? What, did you think our people are gonna waste a spot on Emori, on me? We were safe, and you screwed us. You want to know what we’re up to? It’s called surviving. There’s a bunker on that island. You’re our ride. That’s it.”
Bellamy: “That bunker’s not stocked, Murphy. You won’t last five months, let alone five years.”
Murphy: “No, we probably won’t. At least we’ll survive the death wave. We can’t all be essential personnel or have a sister who’s Queen of the Grounders.”
“I’m not hiding now.”
Jaha: “Octavia, please, you got to stop this. You’re Skaikru. You’re one of us.”
Octavia: “I’m one of you? You made me hide under the floor. You floated my mother. I’m not hiding now.”
“It’s human nature to fight.”
– Niylah to Octavia
“No leader ever does.”
Octavia: “I’m no champion, Indra. I hid. Ilian helped me. Roan helped me. I didn’t do this on my own.”
Indra: “No leader ever does.”

“Hey, your home is with me, okay?”
Emori: “It felt good to be safe. I never felt that way before. Like I had a home.”
Murphy: “Hey, your home is with me, okay?”
“We shouldn’t be lining up to die. We should be fighting for our right to live.”
– Jaha
“This is your moment. Your people need you.”
“You found this place when nobody else believed you. You saved 1,100 grounders. You saved humanity. But if you don’t stop now, you’re taking every bit of that salvation back. This is your moment. Your people need you.”
– Kane to Jaha
“My people, my responsibility.”
Indra: “I’ll do this for you.”
Octavia: “No. My people, my responsibility.”
“This is how we save our people.”
– Kane, after he and Jaha gas their people and turn to Clarke’s list to choose who gets a spot in the bunker
“I say that death wave can kiss my ass.”
Bellamy: “Raven, we need you to get us off the ground before the death wave hits. What do you say? Can you do it?”
Raven: “What do I say? I say that death wave can kiss my ass.”

If it’s on TV — especially if it’s a procedural or superhero show — chances are Meredith watches it. She has a love for all things fiction, starting from a young age with ER and The X-Files on the small screen and the Nancy Drew books. Arrow kicked off the Arrowverse and her true passion for all things heroes. She’s enjoyed getting into the minds of serial killers since Criminal Minds, so it should be no surprise that her latest obsession is Prodigal Son.
