The story
Ricky Baker, a child in the New Zealand foster care system who has frequently run away or been let go by other foster homes, is taken in by Bella and her husband Hector.
Hector goes after him, and in the process, injures his ankle.
They see their pictures in a newspaper article about the manhunt before they are suddenly discovered by three hunters returning to the hut.
