They're not just hunting for food they’re also searching for Javi ( Luciano Leroux), as he’s been missing since the night the team accidentally did mushrooms thanks to Misty ( Sammi Hanratty). Travis welcomes the ritual with open arms, while Natalie isn’t quite as convinced. Every time Natalie ( Sophie Thatcher) and Travis ( Kevin Alves) go out to hunt, Lottie performs a blessing ritual that consists of smudging and also a cup of tea with drops of her blood in it. Lottie ( Courtney Eaton) has also seemingly taken on more of a leadership role, though not everyone is quite so willing to follow her.

It's not until the end of the episode that we see what she does with it: after a brief moment of contemplation, she pops it into her mouth, thus potentially kicking off the team’s foray into cannibalism which has long been hinted at. After Jackie’s corpse falls over, her ear comes off, and Shauna ( Sophie Nélisse), stricken with guilt, slips it into her pocket for safekeeping.

The show has been teasing and hinting at the girls resorting to cannibalism, and it seems like the inevitability of it is closer than we thought. It isn’t just meat that is being saved and kept cold the team has also been keeping Jackie's ( Ella Purnell) body propped up in their meat shed. With food resources dwindling, the team has to cut back on rations to try and stay afloat given the lack of game wandering about.

The wilderness is already a daunting and unforgiving place, so add to that the effects of a brutal Canadian winter, and the team finds themselves in the direst of situations.
