He meets Esther, a woman with whom his father Steve once lived and her daughter and, through them, locates Steve, who is now a wealthy but terminally ill recluse. Initially cool towards David, who confronts him about abandoning his family, Steve lets him stay but his time is coming to an end. David returns to the North, where Jenny is comatose in hospital - however, she seems responsive to his voice and touch.
