Feeling more positive, Kenji has an idea to simplify the design of the long range antenna, and suggests building Mutta's charging stations inside the habitat, saving the team more time. Mutta and Kenji's friendship and teamwork are restored as they focus on working well together again. Mutta learns that Sharon's lunar telescope proposal has been tabled due to design flaws, so Sharon can't offer advice for building the model, although she and Dr. Morrison are already working on a new design. Feeling that it is pointless to build something that's already been shot down, Mutta has a different idea for how to use the mirrors. As the NEEMO training concludes and the candidates return home, the observers discuss the training and note that while both Mutta and Kenji were excellent candidates, Mutta was the one astronaut who acted like he was already living on the Moon.
