Cherry collapses and is rushed into care; Dr. Lee diagnoses shock and long-term malnutrition but reassures staff she'll recover. Household members scramble to feed her, noting how much skinnier she is than other children. Uncle Edmund brings Cherry into his home, asks her to be his daughter, and vows that he and his brother will protect her and never let her go hungry. Cherry accepts the offer and begins calling him 'Dad.' The episode closes with Edmund declaring he'll adopt her and the household murmuring over the change, leaving Cherry's recovery and how she'll fit into the family unresolved.
