Episode synopsis
Noah and Arushka white-in, arriving in some bush country abundant with wildlife, and to Arushka's delight, horses. Her reverie is shattered as gunshots ring through the air. An outraged Arushka runs to the noise and confronts Bully and Mac who are trying to cull kangaroos. Not happy at being interrupted they warn Noah and Arushka off. They are saved from these lads only to be imprisoned by their saviour, Duane, an alien fanatic who saw them arrive. This time they will have to believe him, he has proof! In Haven, the Shadowmaster has contacted Tao, demanding that he make the capture of Noah his first priority. Travelling to the Deep Road, Tao forces Ferris, a young timid boy, into spying on the Nomads. He wants to know where they hide. Free again, Arushka and Noah prepare to leave. But things go terribly wrong and Noah arrives back in Haven in the company of dozens of animals, birds and the sheepdog Dolly — but without Arushka. Arushka is alone and trapped in the past!
