Writer: Liz Doran
Director: Jennifer Leacey

Suffering a breakdown following Rosa’s suicide, Cal locks horns with a psychologist who challenges his faith while the Quinns clash over who will lead Sunday Service in his absence. Jed meets a developer interested in the community centre.

Floating on a horizon pool, far away from civilisation, Cal’s peace is interrupted by the helicopter arrival of Samir Maalouf, a psychologist tasked with bringing Cal back from the brink after suffering a breakdown following Rosa’s death. Meanwhile, back in Sydney, the U Star inner circle is in crisis mode. With Dion and Benji seeing Cal’s absence as an opportunity, Abi and Eli struggle to understand Cal’s behaviour. Searching for answers, Abi finds recordings of Cal personally conducting Rosa’s spiritual counselling sessions, watching as Cal and Rosa become closer.

At his community centre, Jed receives a visit from a property developer who is eager to move Jed and his flock elsewhere. Jed remains steadfast in his mission, resulting in violent consequences. With his family distracted, Moses sneaks out at night to explore high rise city buildings with his friends and perform daredevil stunts to post online. When Moses is caught out by security, he reaches out to his sister, Issy, who promises not to tell Abi and Cal. At the mountain retreat, Cal finally opens up to Samir about his breakdown, confiding that God has stopped speaking to him. Pressing the issue, Samir pushes Cal to a point of spiritual release, with Cal experiencing an epiphany and speaking to the heavens in tongues. Having found his connection with God once more, Cal flies back to take back control of his church.
