Ben and Bron are called to a suburban house and soon realise that the occupant, although a fully grown man, is severely developmentally delayed.

During the laying-out process, Thomas panics, runs from the house and is hit by a car. Although he is not badly injured, Bron feels responsible, and stays with him during his admission to Ward 17.
