Turbotax is asking for cost basis even though the 1099-B says "unknown"

But there is no acquired date. So how would I figure out the cost? There is actually a 0 under quantity.

You will need to use information from your own records to supply the acquisition date and cost if they aren't provided on the 1099-B.
