Tanya tries to buy a box of birth-control pills, but her medical card is declined—she used the balance to pay her grandmother's hospital bills. Short on options, she's later dragged to a university party where men pressure her to drink and mock her. Guests point out Zeke Lowe, an aloof elite, and a man taunts that her father sold her. Men seize her; Tanya resists and pleads to Mr. Lowe: "I don't want to stay here. Please take me with you." The episode ends with her fate hanging on his answer.
