Leah is upset and tells Fatin she can feel something bad is happening on this island - she relates it to a childhood coincidence. “Day Twenty-Two” angles it from the position that although Martha was abused herself, she is still protecting her abuser. Martha claims that the victims are lying and she has nothing bad to say. At school, her mother delivers her bad news - doctor Ted has been accused of sexually abusing girls. She’s so good she gets into the adult jingle team. Once recovered, Martha joins a jingle dancing team and she takes it all the way to school. In a flashback, young Martha goes through a recovery phase so she can walk again after the trampoline accident. Little does she knows that Shelby and Toni have a little romance going on. Martha is proud that Toni is letting her grudges down. On the island, Toni and Martha reminisce about their childhood they want to go scavenging together for food, and Toni wants to invite Shelby. An accidentĪ flashback shows a young Martha jumping on a trampoline and asking for her mother’s attention. Martha keeps up the faith, and Nora narrates and calls it “blind faith”. Leah believes that the pilot who saw them is part of the conspiracy because they haven’t returned to save them. Shelby seems to have perked up - probably because she doesn’t have to return home. The women are starting to regret eating all the food as a rescue has not arrived. She has this hold over them it’s difficult to grasp if it’s sinister or good leadership. Gretchen always seems to have people who work for her who seemingly want a “better life” or aspire to be someone greater. She mocks Dean’s previous life and suggests this project gives her purpose - she wants him to prove his worth. Gretchen explains that their research is not over yet, and they need to keep going. Dean wonders how long they will be keeping the women apart.
