As he is from the city and has no experience in back country travel, he hires Pan and Rich to be his guides, much to Gloria's chagrin, despite the extra money, as she would rather have Rich stay on the ranch and at least start the addition to the house which he promised for so long. Pan and Rich come to the quick conclusion that Deaver isn't all that he seems. Back at the ranch, Gloria decides to start the addition herself with the help of the ranch hands who are as inexperienced in house building as they are in ranching. They in turn are torn between helping their boss and attending to the ranch chores. But when Deaver's boss, a man named Sam Correa, arrives, Gloria gets some help but also fears for their way of life as, as she knows of Correa from her previous society life in Vancouver, Correa is the type of man who gets what he wants.
