Over at Jacob's house, Ben asks for a place to stay; he has nowhere else to go.
Jacob is caught off guard at first—he has the smallest house in town and the biggest family—but eventually, he agrees to let Ben stay.
The house isn't big, but Ben is grateful.
When Jacob's wife, Charlotte, comes in and hears the news, she says something sarcastic about being everyone's favorite family in town with their new guest.
