Plot
It is the aftermath of the accident and both Clive and Rod have both been found unconscious and taken to hospital. Ian has gone as well but is later discharged with cuts and bruises. This is small consolation for Ian though who blames Ruth for steamrolling him into agreeing to the mining escapade and an argument soon ensues. Later that day, Hinton travels with Annie to the hospital where Clive has been kept in as a precaution. When they arrive they find out that Rod is much improved but when they ask about Clive they receive a shock. He has discharged himself from the hospital and disappeared.
