At a school field day Cody and his parents win the three-legged race, then the kids-only event begins. During the children's race Ryan runs despite a wound that can't get wet, and concern spreads. After the mishap caregivers scramble: one admits they can't handle Ryan alone; another snaps, "If you can't handle it, then learn." The kids plead, adults argue they'd have helped any injured child, and someone accuses Nora of not knowing what she did wrong. The episode ends with the family calling Nora's name, waiting for her answer.
