(The episode begins with the heroes arriving at Bilal's secret shelter. After Bilal leaves to check on his sister, an oppressive silence falls. The four boys deal with their trauma in their own way: Taher obsessively cleans himself, Merenji punches the walls in frustration, Maddah observes everyone analytically, and Qassem sits catatonically in a corner, lost in his memories.)

[SCENE 3: The Fracture]

(The loud clang of Merenji's fist hitting the wall shatters the silence.)

MERENJI: (Turns and shouts at the seated Qassem) "This is all your fault! If you had just fought him! If you weren't so weak, your friend would still be alive!"

(Taher immediately stands up, positioning himself between Merenji and Qassem.)

TAHER: (In a firm, commanding tone) "Be silent. That's enough. He just watched his friend die."

MERENJI: (Directs his anger at Taher now) "And who are you to tell me to be silent, 'Mr. Clean'? At least I don't pretend I don't belong here!"

(Taher ignores Merenji's insult. His expression changes from defending Qassem to a cold, analytical assessment of the situation. He slowly turns and looks directly at the silent Qassem.)

TAHER: (In a quiet, unsettling voice, not as a friend, but as a leader assessing a threat) "You are dangerous. And someone like you… must be watched."

(The line hangs in the air like a physical weight. It is not an angry accusation like Merenji's, but a cold, logical judgment, which makes it all the more painful for Qassem.)

[SCENE 4: The Voice of Reality]

(The tension is at its peak. Qassem is now under assault from Merenji's rage and Taher's suspicion. Maddah intervenes, not to defend, but to comment with his usual sarcasm.)

MADDAH: (With a sigh) "Ah, we've entered the blame game party. Excellent. All we're missing now is a lawyer."

(No one laughs. The silence becomes heavier. At that moment, Bilal returns, having forgotten something, and sees their tense faces.)

BILAL: (Trying to break the heavy atmosphere) "I say… should you eat something first? Or fight? Because if you're going to fight, I want to bet on Merenji."

(His simple, childish words shatter the tension awkwardly. They stop and stare at him. Bilal smiles innocently, then stands up.)

BILAL: "I'm going to see my sister. Try not to destroy the shelter."

(He leaves, leaving the heroes in an embarrassed silence.)

[SCENE 5: The First Words]

(In this new silence, a quiet, broken voice comes from the corner. It's QASSEM, speaking for the first time. He looks directly at Taher.)

QASSEM: "You're right."

(He then looks at Merenji.)

QASSEM: "And you're right, too… It is my fault."

(Qassem looks down at his own trembling hands.)

QASSEM: (In a whisper that is barely audible) "My friend… Salim… he was braver than any of us… He made a choice. I… I chose nothing… I told him… stay close to me."

(This quiet admission of guilt, directed at everyone, crushes all the remaining anger and caution in the room, leaving only a shared, profound sadness.)

[SCENE 6: The Beginning of an Alliance]

(FINAL SHOT: Taher stands up, walks over, and sits down next to Qassem in silent support. Maddah sighs, then offers Qassem a piece of canned bread. Merenji remains standing, but he turns his back to everyone, as if unwilling to let them see his expression.)

(The camera pulls up slowly, showing the four boys, each in his own corner, but no longer four strangers. They are four separate wounds, beginning to heal together in the quiet dark.)

(The screen cuts to black.)
