Yadiel is found alive after collapsing from hunger; a passerby wakes him. Delilah—who was adopted by Yadiel's parents and had cared for him after their deaths—rushes over, relieved. She reveals Fernando from Lewis Village is handing out porridge but demanding women and children in exchange. Villagers explain Grandma accepted the trade as repayment for years of food, and Yadiel angrily objects that the provisions belonged to his family. Someone rebukes him to "know your place." The episode ends with someone stepping forward and asking, "So, you're Fernando?", setting up an immediate confrontation over the trade.
