## Plot

**SPOILERS AHEAD**
The kids try to go back to their normal lives as best as possible, but it’s harder on some than others. One girl, Gretchen, decides to just sit and wait on a bench in case the parents return. While everyone is gathered on the town green, they witness a total solar eclipse that freaks everyone out, considering that they didn’t know one was going to happen. Even though they’ve been alone for over a week now, solar eclipses are still things that get news coverage a while beforehand. Gordie is the first to suggest they might be in an alternate reality or parallel universe.

Fearing that they’re going to run out of food eventually, Allie and Will decide to make an index of everything they have. While taking a tally, Will is visited by Kelly who offers to sit and help him. When Allie makes her way back to check on Will, she sees Kelly and him sitting together and feels rejected. On her way back home she sees Harry and tells him that Kelly’s getting close with Will which definitely angers him.

Meanwhile, Elle makes her way over to a house to hang out with some of the other girls, but she’s denied entry and turned away, really driving home the fact that she’s a complete loner. Becca and Sam go through old photographs of the town, looking for any sort of clues, but then Becca runs out of the building and throws up in a nearby bush. Guess what! She’s pregnant. And Gordie tends to Cassandra, trying to take her heartbeat in a super awkward moment as he’s not sure whether he can touch her breast or not.

After Becca leaves him, Sam keeps going through the photos and documents of the town, when Campbell stops by for a visit. Sam finds a letter from Pfeiffer (remember him from the first episode!), demanding $1.5 million for the removal of the smell. The town refuses to pay in a letter dated the day before they disappeared. He tries to talk to Campbell about the documents, but Campbell demands that the papers be destroyed so their family isn’t blamed for anything. He rips everything up and storms out of the building.

That night, the whole town plays a game of fugitive. Needless to say, teenage hormones run rampant. The big takeaway is that Elle somehow ends up back at Campbell’s house and though she tries to leave, he gets her to stay by offering her cocaine. The two then masturbate together, as Campbell somehow convinces her that they’re in in the same — they’re both weird loners, and he promises to keep her safe.

Another important thing, Allie and Harry sleep together. Allie has the winning Line of the Episode with: “That was it?”

A rainstorm drives everyone outside to literally pillage the town, as things are set on fire and store windows are broken. Over narration, Becca warns that this is just the beginning of what’s the come.
