The Cawing - Reminiscent of Alfred Hitchcock, the Estrella Polar faces a new threat when 40,000 birds, hungry and without any place to land since the catastrophe, approach the ship in search of food. As the crew constructs defenses, Father Palomares lobbies for space for a chapel, establishing his role as a spiritual leader, while some members of the crew see the arrival of the birds as punishment from God.
