Stranded

Jane wakes early and stands on the rocks by the boat, using her camera (which survived the crash) to document being stranded. She assigns names to the important landmarks they’ve discovered so far (like Lookout Point and Benson-Diaz Beach) and describes how the ship crashed. Vanessa finds her and takes her back to the boat for a family meeting, determined to create a plan and resolve any lingering conflict. Carter insists that they split up. He wants to look for water while Vanessa tries to fix the solar panel to charge the satellite phone. Jane goes with Carter, and Buzz stays with Vanessa, who decides that some time apart might be best.

Carter and Jane set off, carrying bags filled with bottles and jars, in search of a fresh water source. As they walk, Jane grows nervous and starts asking questions about the island and the possibility of finding water. Carter tries to reassure her by explaining that the island is small and that a fresh water source is likely, but he really has no idea whether that’s true.

Vanessa inspects the solar panel and sees that the glass is broken but the rest of it is intact. The wires at its base have come apart, so she uses pliers to twist them back together.
