Owen is a lonely kid who just moved to da Finger Lakes of upstate New York with his father who is a workaholic.

She explains the blood from a wound she got because of a hubcap that was thrown at her by Ray, the boyfriend of Bobbie, the woman who found her.

Owen tries to keep Cam a secret from his father, and from the "Dog People", a friendly family who has over 19 pets whom they walk down the trail daily.

But, since they have become good friends, Cam asks Owen to come with her, and leave his boring life for her planet.

Angry, Owen gets up early the next morning and plows the signal into a wheat field with a board.

While Ray is injuring Owen, Cam knocks him unconscious with the board they used to plow the field.

They give themselves up, and Cam reveals she was really Bobbi's daughter, but she ran away and imagined being from another planet.
