A chase ensued with Van and Lottie hot on Shauna's heels, seemingly intent on making her their next victim, but luckily, Misty (Christina Ricci), Natalie (Juliette Lewis), and Taissa reached her in time to prevent a potential tragedy.
She interpreted the wilderness's intervention in preventing Natalie's death after she drew the Queen of Hearts and her own position as lead hunter as signs that Natalie was the rightful leader.
In a shocking turn of events, Travis (Kevin Alves) is devastated when the girls bring back his brother Javi's (Luciano Leroux) body after Natalie lets him drown.
Natalie's demise came when Misty was poised to kill Lisa (Nicole Mains) with a syringe, intending her as the next wilderness sacrifice.
Van, however, persuaded Taissa (Tawny Cypress) to abandon their plan to disrupt the ritual and instead ensure Lottie's safety, as she began to think sacrificing Shauna might be the right move.
