Meghan releases the second baby from the box. "Look at this cutiee!" She says, and holds it the way like Espen did. "Yup, seems like it's a girl." Meghan says. "Now what do we do with her?" Rose asks. "You keep her?" Roi suggests. "If you and Meghan take care of this baby, Jeremiah, Roan and I will find a potential third one." He says. "Of course!" Meghan says. "Good luck finding the next one." Rose says. "Thank you!" Roi says, and he walks off with Jeremiah and Roan."Look at him..." Espen says. "He's such a cutie, isn't he?" He looks at Leon. "Yeah..." He says. Espen tickles the baby. "Babies mean hope to me." Espen says. "Whenever I see a baby smile, it stirs up hope inside of me. I feel like we can take on whatever is causing this." He says. "How does seeing a baby make you emotionally stronger?" Leon asks. "Karma." Espen says. "I think I'll get good karma for taking care of him..." He says, and he looks at the baby which has now fallen asleep. "I kinda want to name him." Espen says. "How about Hope?" Leon asks. "Perfect." Espen smiles, and looks at the baby. "Good night, Hope." He says. Leon takes off his leather jacket. "Can I?" He asks. Espen nods, and hands him Hope. "Woah, careful." Espen says. "You literally gave me hope." Leon laughs. "Glad to have done so." Espen says. Leon looks up after hearing a loud bang. "What was that?" He asks. "It came from over there." Leon points at the wall in the back of the office. It's dark wood in the corner, so it's hard to see what all is there. Hope starts crying. "Oh no..." Leon says. "Here, take it, I can't deal with emotional children." He hands Espen the kid. Roi comes down the stairs. "We heard the bang, they sent me here, what's up?" He asks. He sees Leon walk towards the back of the office and he follows him. "It came from the coffins..." Leon says. "Do we open it?" Roi asks. "Ew no!" Espen says. "Maybe there's a body in it!" He says. "Well, maybe there's a clue in it too..." Roi says, and he takes off the lid.
"So, Jeremiah..." Roan says. "Can you be honest with me?" He asks. "Always." Jeremiah responds. "Did you know anything about the board game?" Roan asks. "Yes." Jeremiah answers. Roan looks at him. "As simple as that? You did?" Roan asks. "Yes, but I didn't know it was deadly." Jeremiah says. "How did you not?" Roan asks. "It came with the ship, it was the main reason I wanted to make this a social event." Jeremiah responds. "So you are innocent..." Roan says. "I have to say, I should have tested the game first." Jeremiah confesses. "Let's say I'm a little liable." He responds. "Thanks for your honesty." Roan says. "Anytime." Jeremiah says. "Now, I don't think there's going to be another kid." Roan says. "Let's get Rose and Meghan and get back down and see what Roi found." He suggests. "Sounds like a very solid plan." Jeremiah says.
Rose and Meghan are hugging while holding the kid together. "When we both get out of here..." Meghan says. "What will we do?" She asks. "I don't know..." Rose says, and she puts her head on Meghan's shoulder. "It's still an if, not a when." Rose says. "Right." Meghan sighs. "I just believe that we can make it." She says. "I believe we can too." Rose says. Meghan kisses Rose's forehead, making Rose blush. "I know we can." Meghan says. Rose giggles. "Look at us, holding a baby..." She says. Jeremiah and Roan come walking their way. "There are no more babies on the boat." Roan says. Meghan and Rose look at him, Rose hands Meghan the baby. "Let's go and find out why the babies are here." Rose says. "Perhaps Leon and Espen found a clue?" Meghan says. "Let's check and find out." Roan says.
