When it's possessing something.
To clarify: The only time you use an apostrophe on a plural word is when it is a possessive plural, e.g. the children's clothes or the dogs' water dishes. In these instances, children and dogs are both already plural. Note the difference in the position of the apostrophe. If the plural ends in s, the apostrophe goes after the s. If the word itself is plural, the apostrophe goes before the s.
