Aaron, determined to regain his equilibrium, boards his small boat and heads out to where he feels most at peace, on the ocean. When he returns to shore hours later with a young mute woman, the question foremost in everyone's mind is, "Who is she?" But more concerning to Aaron's mother is whether Aaron might really believe he has found a lone survivor.
