## Throughout The Series

### Series One

#### Episode 1

Becca sits with her best friend, Sam, on the bus ride. Becca knows American Sign Language and uses it to communicate with Sam. She often acts as his interpreter. The group fall asleep on the bus and wake up to hear that they are back home.

Becca arrives home to an empty house and calls out for her mother. She texts Sam before attending the gathering arranged by Cassandra to discuss their situation. Rather than take Cassandra's advice to wait it out until morning, Sam joins the party in The Church. She films the party and is encouraged by Sam to take part too. Sam suggests that she always keeps in the margins and doesn't join in.

Becca and Sam discuss what could have happened to them in Sam's father's office. Becca is keen to solve the mystery of why and where they are, but Sam suggests that there may be no answers to find. Becca looks over the pictures she took on the school bus which feature many of the students, including Sam and Cassandra, but also a shot of the mysterious bus driver, although Becca doesn't notice at this time.

Later, Becca waits at The Church for the return of the expedition group with some other students. The teens speculate about what news the expedition group will bring. While the teens are together, Cassandra announces that they need to start making decisions much to the chagrin of some of the others, including Harry. She asks that the teens be more mindful of their limited resources, which many of the teens acquiesce to, apart from Harry. On Harry's challenge of Cassandra's idea, Becca tells Harry that they are trying to put some form of democracy in place. Cassandra challenges Harry on this and asks if she should flip a coin and use chance to decide if he is so reluctant to democracy. Cassandra continues flipping the coin and it lands on tails every time which is disconcerting for all of the teens. It eventually lands on heads and the teens have a collective sigh of relief.

Becca cowers with the rest when Campbell shoots his gun and threatens to shoot Cassandra. On the return of the wood expedition group, Becca looks on Emily's body with shock and fear as they realise that there is nothing beyond the woods and they far from home.

In the kitchen of The Pressman Residence, Sam eats toast, eggs, and bacon with **Becca**, Allie Pressman, Cassandra Pressman, Gordie, and Bean. Becca tells the group that she and Sam are looking at the files in the Town Hall to get some answers. The group agree that they need to check out the water and power supply as well as creating a food inventory.

Cassandra acknowledges that she is the problem and vows to stay at a distance from it.

At the Town Hall, Sam and Becca look at documentation and photographs to try and ascertain the reason why they are trapped in this place that looks so much like home. Becca begins to feel unwell and has to leave. When she gets out into the street, she vomits in a bush.

Later, **Becca**catches up with Sam on his way home during Fugitive. He tells her that he didn't find anything and asks her to walk home with him.
