CW ‘The 100’ All New Season 1 Finale Episode: Creator Talks Death and Epic Grounder Battle [SPOILERS]

Tonight is the big Season 1 finale of The 100. The show has building up to a massive war between the Arc criminals and the grounders. Now the show’s creator is teasing the new battle and all the deaths that come with it.

The official plot synopsis for tonight’s season finale episode titled “We Are Grounders, Part 2,” reads:

“Conclusion. Bellamy forces Octavia to make a difficult decision in the Season 1 finale. Later, Finn takes a risk.”

The show’s creator, Jason Rothenberg, recently opened up to TV Guide about the big battle that is brewing between the grounders and the 100. During the last episode the group’s leadership was divided on whether to stay at camp and to fight or to flee. Either way it seems they damned if they do, as Rothenberg states:

“I think one of the things that I love so much about our show is that both options usually are bad in terms of any decision and this episode is no different. Whether they stay or go, most likely people will die and ultimately that decision is taken out of their hands. I think one of those things that is certainly true about Clarke and Bellamy is that they've come to respect each other over the course of the season. They've come to recognize each other's strengths in terms of what one does well and the other probably doesn't. Bellamy's more of the physical, rah-rah leader and Clarke is more of the figurehead, the queen. He's her sort of knight, basically.”

Rothenberg also promised us a lot of death in the episode, adding:

“We jokingly sometimes talk about how by the end of the season you'll have to call the show The 50 and it's not far off from that. At the end of things there will not be close to as many people standing as there are in the beginning. Whether those are our main characters people will have to tune in to find out, but certainly lives hang in the balance at the end.”

The Season 1 finale of The 100 airs tonight on the CW at 9:00 p.m.
