Summary
What if the Ark wasn't failing? What if there never was a problem with the air at all. Ark Station will apparently make it another hundred years until they are sure the earth is habitable again.
The rules are less draconian. No automatic floating for any adult crime.
Second children are not a capital offense. They are however, the lowest of the low, a waste of air. They are given no rations or housing allotment, no education, no medical care. No resources are given to Seconds at all. And the families they came from? They are in disgrace.
When 23 year old new doctor Clarke meets Bellamy, he is a low level guard playing in gladiator tournaments to make credits to support Octavia, and is in need of medical care from Clarke's unsanctioned clinic on Factory.
The thing is, even though the Ark itself is functioning just fine, the people of the Ark are a powder keg of anger, injustice and resentment, and someone has to do something before the last of humanity destroys itself.
