After the pair becomes a group, tragedy raises its unforgiving head. With their destination in sight, Marty is confronted by the necessity to fight off a confrontation with humankind's animal nature. The losses are more than he can cope with as he gathers together the remainder of the group and continues their journey to find a place to start over, a place to call home.
