Laura and Meggie wish they could tell you that The 100: Homecoming is about everyone having a nice big dance on Earth, but unfortunately that's not the case. The remaining dropships have landed on Earth, which is great because Glass can reunite with her friends, but it's much much worse considering her mom just died and Vice Chancellor Rhodes is here to ruin everything the 100 has built so far. Glass takes to the woods while Bellamy, Clarke, and Wells flee to the Earthborns' village and there's danger really at every turn.
