Previously in Mr. 100 Days.
Cipher, an evil genius of a villain was able to kidnap 100 men and women from across the United States on the same day. He has them housed in a large room with no visible doors, windows or points of entry. Water is supplied to them via a trough located on each of the four walls and food is delivered sparingly.
Each person from Day 1 was given a number, that number is equivalent to the number of days you stay in the room and also equals your release date. Each day they are there Cipher tests the group through various forms of torture both physical and psychological. He has told them that their days in the room are being broad casted over the web for the world to watch and that after his experiment, which they are all a part of, America as a country will be stronger for having survived such an incredible tragedy.
A main group of the 100 people seem to be at the forefront of this tale.
#68 Ross, a young man in his early twenties is trying to get through this ordeal with his wit, sense of humor and a constant pop culture reference. Back home he was just a retail worker with few people in his life, so here he has tried to be strong for others. He has even given his previous number of 52 to a young women whom he seems to be smitten with.
#52 Anne, a young woman in her mid 20s, she is scared and praying every day that she can return to her previous life. She has a man waiting for her back home, but has found her self drawn to two individuals here in the room. Ross, who she spends more time with all the time, feeling something for him. Unsure if that its love or a sense of something else as he's saved her life several times while in the room, and a woman who has grown closer to her than any..
#63 Liz, she started off in the room as the leader of the women's group, keeping them safe as much as she could as not only did the women fear their situation, but some also feared the men they were trapped with in the room. She has slowly moved away from this group trying to get all the women to interact with everyone. Her new friends include:
#84 Jim, the spiritualist of the group who believes that prayer and positive thoughts will get them through this ordeal. He constantly stands up to Cipher, not always putting him in the best situations but he stands defiant in Cipher's face of evil.
#75 Scott, a prison CO reluctant and defiant like Jim in the beginning was recently put in a room by himself where he seems to have made a bargain with Cipher and quite possibly this might not be his first deal, unbeknownst to the others in the room of course.
#41 Bonny an attractive woman in her 40s and Renee a strong athletic man also in his 40s have come together as a couple in the room despite the tragedy and horror that has gone on around them. While the two started this adventure a bit despicable, they have tried to make amends for their ways. Bonny originally had the number 21, after stealing it off of a dead body, but has exchanged that number for the number 41. Renee has vowed to keep Bonny safe until that day comes of her release and every day after that since he'll be released the following day.
#73 Dalton, a young man in his early 20s had the number #73 and had become good friends with Ross and one other. He was offered a deal with Cipher that would reduce any one's sentence, including his own by 50 days. He accepted the offer but made no mention of whom would be getting the 50 days off their total. However the point is null since the deal cost Dalton his life. He had to portray himself as Cipher, he was assured he would be safe, and all he had to do was to convince one of the others to not fight back while in the room. However by revealing the secret that this man's wife and son are actually dead, and by antagonizing him by saying that he's forgotten their memory pushed him to the point of violence and he attacked Dalton, killing him. That man was Dalton's friend:
#100 Daniel, also known as Mr. 100 Days, he hold the tag 100, unsure on how he got it as he was knocked out and when he awoke his original tag had been traded for the 100 marker. Cipher has told Daniel that he won't reveal to the group any of his secrets including that he's responsible for Dalton's death, he and his group of P90s will keep his secret.
The P90s are Ciphers security force, the occasionally enter the room, armed with P90 machine guns and full body armor that hides their identities. Their job is to keep the room in line, and clear bodies when needed.
Since last we saw the group Nineteen days have passed, they have suffered 1 more fatality and 9 people left in the past 19 days. Somehow other who had died previously left the room with some early numbers. A total of 30 people out of the 100 that started remain... this begins volume 2 of Mr. 100 Days.
