While Jessica is tending to duckie, the other subs are moving.

They are stepping onto the stage, carrying in new items.

One by one, they place them down before Madam, carefully setting them in a neat arrangement.

Madam has her pick of the next round.

duckie is still bent over the sawhorse, restrained, waiting.

Jessica is finishing her exam.

The next phase is about to begin.
