Once they run away, a search party is organized by the island's various eccentric characters, including Scout Master Ward, Suzy's parents (Walt and Laura Bishop), and the island's police captain, Captain Sharp. As they search for the missing children, the adults grapple with their own personal issues, leading to conflicts and revelations within the community.

As the search ensues, the island is hit by a powerful storm, escalating the urgency to find Sam and Suzy before it's too late.
