Helen, a doctor, manages to tend to his wound and save him. The following day she tries to learn who shot Will, the stranger, but he refuses to tell her and insists on departing. However, he is too weak to leave and Helen allows him to return to the house. Later Al, a man Helen is familiar with, comes by the house to return Helen's boat which she gave to him to fix. Will warns her not to let the man in the house as he will kill both of them but Helen, ignoring him, asks Al to tow both her and Will to shore. Al agrees, but instead unties both Helen and Will's boats from the her dock and then departs. In an attempt to stop the boats from drifting off Helen dives into the water and nearly drowns before she is finally rescued by Will.

They scour her home for bullets for their rifle and remove the dock from her home. Meanwhile, Al returns with Tom and the after searching the house unsuccessfully they seek Helen and Will in the woods where they have split up. Helen attempts to attack Tom but is unsuccessful.

He also shoots Al in order to lure Will back to the house. Will does return to the house after hearing the gunshot. He and Tom hug on the porch and after Will apologizes Tom lifts his gun to shoot him. Helen however, has managed to get the rifle off of Al's body and kills Tom before he can hurt Will.
