- The Reveal that June was trapped at school when she saw her parents taken away to safety on a bus. The reason she refuses to leave the school is so that if her parents come back, they'll know to look for her there.
- Also similar is Quint's insistence his parents are alright because they were on a cruise when the Apocalypse happened so they must be somewhere safe. Even Jack, who is usually optimistic,believes this is dubious, given the state of the world.
