A sudden rainstorm erupts and puts out all the candles and the fire. The castaways decide they need a bigger shelter with a solid roof to keep dry and warm, and that would be the downed plane. A discussion ensues about whether they could or should attempt to move the heavy plane up the beach nearer to the fire pit by rolling it on logs and pulling it with ropes. They take a vote and end up with a split decision. The tie is unexpectedly broken by Taylor who votes to move the plane to higher ground even though it means a lot more work. As they are finding logs to roll the plane on, Jackson and Taylor have a few minutes of unexpected interaction away from the group. Taylor has damaged the battery charger and tells Jackson she has really messed up. Jackson tells her not to worry and just be yourself.
