A local dentist in the fictional town where Ellie and the others live in rural Australia. Mr. Clement and his family also manage to evade the invading soldiers that take over Australia, and he isn’t happy when Robyn forces him out of hiding to help Lee after Lee is shot by enemy soldiers. Mr. Clement teaches Robyn how to care for Lee’s wound and inject him with much needed painkillers and antibiotics, and even though Robyn hates blood and needles, she rises to the challenge. Thanks to Mr. Clement, Robyn is able to further grow and mature beyond her years, which again proves that young people are capable of profound change and maturity, especially in extreme circumstances, such as war.
