When Shawna goes into labor, the girls are unprepared and know nothing about it. This was despite the videos they watched about childbirth in sex education classes.
Misty, momentarily transformed into a makeshift Mother Teresa amidst the plane crash's medical chaos, stands frozen in horror as she beholds Shauna's dire condition. Yet, amidst the chaos, the girls rally together, determined to alleviate the situation. But when Misty catches a glimpse of blood emanating from Shauna's intimate regions, she flees the scene in a panic.
Ben, who had once innocently shown the girls a birthing video in class, now finds himself wiping his hands clean of the unexpected responsibility that's unfolded. Travis, resigned to fate, proposes offering prayers and sacrifices to the untamed wilderness as their only hope, and they embark on this solemn ritual.
Akilah, overseeing the makeshift delivery, exchanges worried glances with Tai as they realize the placenta is emerging before the baby's head—a dire sign that defies the natural order. Yet, they persist in bolstering Shauna's spirits.
Lottie, like a gentle breeze dispelling Misty's daze, stirs her back into action, where she once again assumes command, directing everyone's every move. As Lottie leads a heartfelt prayer to the wilderness for divine intervention, Misty and Akilah frantically work to usher the baby into the world. Miraculously, their efforts bear fruit, and Shauna gives birth to a robust baby boy.
However, this fleeting moment of joy is soon overshadowed by new troubles. The infant refuses to nurse from Shauna and wails incessantly, testing her patience to the brink. When Shauna discovers Lottie nursing the baby in the dead of night, her heart plummets into darkness.
Determined to bond with her child, Shauna tries again to feed him, and to her immense relief, it works. She breathes a sigh of relief, whispering, "It's just you and me, kid, against the entire world." But her peace is short-lived. In the stillness of the night, Shauna awakens to a nightmare—the girls gathered in a grim circle, consuming the baby. The truth dawns on her with crushing weight: the baby never survived. Her mind had conjured a fantasy of his birth and health, a cruel illusion. He had passed away during childbirth, and Shauna, steadfast in denial, refuses to accept the brutal truth.
