In the physics classroom, Mr. Douglas is holding his sophomore class which includes Liam Dunbar and his classmates. Mr. Douglas has drawn a diagram of Schrodinger's Cat on the board. The majority of the class, the female and gay male in particular are captivated by him.

Garrett Douglas: "I see I have impressed you all with my artistic abilities."

Douglas then explains the concept of Schrodinger's cat where the cat is put in a box filled with poisonous food, now the cat is now considered both alive and dead. Hayden Romero eagerly answers his question about its relation to physics saying it illustrates the concept of quantum superposition: that a light is both a particle and a wave until observation. He praises her answer and that the subject of the lab is does observing something change its behavior or alter its outcome. He instructs the class to divide into groups of four to work on the lab.

 

Later, Douglas has murdered a man named Nick Mazzara who was involved in the helium theft from the hospital. Douglas takes the helium so to repair his impaired healing ability and leaves Mazarra's body in the school's boiler room.

 

Later Liam, Mason Hewitt and Hayden are searching the school having picked up the smell of blood from Mazarra's body. As they enter the boiler room, Douglas watches from above, having been gleaning much information about Scott McCall's pack.
