Synopsis

Amber criticises Jack for continuing to try to make contact with others using the radio and for encouraging hope in Cloe. Instead, she wants him to put his hope in themselves and not to be looking for outside miracles. Ryan asks Jack for help to identify the thief when his and Lex's money goes missing.

The antibiotics begin to take affect and Trudy's condition improves but she is not enthusiastic about her baby. Zandra rebuffs Lex's advances and tells him she wishes he was more like Bray. Finding Patsy and Paul trying to break into his food locker, Jack tells them it is now "Patsy and Paul proof". Bray informs Trudy that Zoot wants to see her but Trudy doesn't want to talk to him. Salene tries to withhold food from the others until the dishes are cleaned but no one is interested.

When she's alone, Lex tells Trudy she's no longer welcome and he wants her out. When Bray returns Trudy reluctantly agrees to meet with Zoot but it must be inside the mall — she's not going outside. Later, when everyone's asleep, Bray brings Zoot in through the sewers.
