When a fire ruins several buildings on their property, Sarah takes stepdaughter Anna (Lexi Randall) and stepson Caleb (Christopher Bell) to her brother's home in Maine, leaving Jacob to tend what's left of their farm. As they steel themselves for a period of separation, Jacob and Sarah pledge to reunite.
