On her way home, Lilly runs into Lydia and asks her if she's seen Austin Ballard. Lydia tells her that Austin was last seen an hour or so earlier, rummaging around the trash heap behind the storage warehouse on Main Street. A few passersby made snarky comments about the young man “turning into a hobo” and “the next thing you know, he’ll be pushing a shopping cart down Woodbury road looking for tin cans.”

Lydia stayed behind in Woodbury during the prison assault and listened to Lilly's recounting of the events in the courthouse along with the rest of the town.
