The Colony experiment begins. The Ten Survival volunteers find an abandoned warehouse on the outskirts of Los Angeles. Once they get acquainted with their new surroundings, they must deal with the rudimentary basics of survival: food, water and security.
When their limited power supply begins to run low, the colonists work on creating a generator. They also decide to go foraging for food outside the warehouse, since their food supply is also inadequate.

With the basics of survival seemingly under their control, the colonists decide to focus on creature comforts, such as building a shower. However, neglecting security leaves them vulnerable to attack.
After a massive attack on the warehouse, the colonists make improving security their highest priority. While they are working, they are visited by gun-wielding traders, and the colonists negotiating skills are put to the test.
The Colonists experiment with solar electricity but are interrupted when strangers breach their security, abuse their trust, and attempt to steal their supplies.
One of the volunteers goes missing during a search party. The remaining colonists attempt to find a way of contacting their lost member through various communication devices.
While on a trip to the river, the colonists meet a group of faithful missionaries that later stirs a moral argument between the colonists when two nomads come to the warehouse begging for resources. Also, the group's moral is low so the colonists try to work on new inventions to have some kind of entertainment to boost their spirits.
One of the colonist has trouble with a kidney stone. Also, as two colonists start a dangerous recon mission, there is a new arrival.
The traders are back for business, which makes things difficult in the colony. The colonists continue working on their escape vehicle as one of them reaches his breaking point.
The marauders violently attack the colony while the colonists make the last adjustments to their escape vehicle.
