"I didn't realize old Earth was so weird," Bellamy says before he can stop himself or consider anything else. Between the parade and the people of the city, he's not sure which is real old Earth and which is part of the craziness specific to the situation they've found themselves in.

"But," he says, and he holds up his plate with the funnel cake on it, "the food is amazing." He's stuck to mostly safe-looking food throughout the day, with the cake being his first real indulgence. Bellamy hasn't mentioned a thing to Clarke about it, but he discovered the hard way what happens when he eats too much of the food here without taking into account the fact that he's had nothing but nuts, berries, and animal meat for a month and a half. He'd thrown up almost as much as he ate for the first day or two.
