قسمت 13: کودکان با کمبود غذا و تهدید مارمولک غول‌پیکر روبرو می‌شوند در حالی که کاورو با انزوا دست‌وپنج نرم می‌کند.

13

Two weeks later, the children have returned their efforts to food-gathering, but they find they've already picked the nearby trees clean of fruit. They decide to go further afield the next day, but all are concerned about Kaoru's habit of doing his own thing. The following day, Bell, Luna and Chako find potatoes, while Kaoru and Sharla check the fish trap, but find it empty. Kaoru walks away to hunt on his own, but Sharla turns back to see fish swim into the trap. Kaoru arrives to dinner late, having caught a small lizard while hunting. Later that night, Luna brings Kaoru dinner as he sharpens his knife in the cleaning area, and she tells him that he doesn't have to act alone - they're stronger if they work together. The next day, Bell and Shingo plow a field to plant potatoes, Menori and Howard move the fence line, and Sharla and Chako hang fish out to dry. However, Kaoru's uneaten dinner from the previous night attracts the giant lizard. The children retreat into the house as the lizard starts to eat their fish. Just then, Kaoru returns from hunting, and attacks it. Kaoru's arm gets badly scratched, and Luna runs out to distract the lizard so that Kaoru can get to the house. When Kaoru dismisses Luna's concerns because he was only risking himself, she gets angry with him, and tells him to treasure his life. The children concoct a plan to get rid of the lizard, but in the process of carrying it out, both the lizard and Shingo fall into the lake. Luna dives in to distract the lizard from Shingo, and she suddenly hears a strange voice telling her to grab a spear floating near her. She and Kaoru - jumping from the tree - spear the lizard together and kill it. That night, as Kaoru joins the others for dinner, Luna tells them about the voice she heard. (Source: Wikipedia)
