Synopsis

In keeping with his plan to be unpredictable, Lex kicks Ryan out of his room. It is an action that further isolates Lex from the group as the boys begin to fall in line with the chores. Trudy is in full mommy-mode, flaunting her baby in front of Salene. Amber tells Salene to let things between Bray and Trudy sort themselves out and not interfere.

With no milk to give, Lex puts Bluebell's fate back on the table upsetting Cloe. Neither Ryan nor Jack can bring themselves to kill the calf but neither can Lex who returns to the mall feigning an injury, telling everyone the Locos attacked him and took Bluebell. Salene tries to teach Patsy and Paul to play piano but discovers Ryan has removed the wires to help built Jack's new rainwater chute.

Amber appeals to Lex's vanity and gets him to reassign jobs. Lex gives up leadership to focus on security, Amber is to look after day-to-day tasks, and Bray is in charge of provisions — a job he earns when he brings back some chickens. Meanwhile, Cloe runs away to find Bluebell and is caught outside when a much-needed rainstorm comes.
