A nice lawyer from London stops to assist her, and during their parting conversation, a dark car pulls up and a man starts shooting at them. The good samariatn rolls down the embankment with her, sheilding her from the spray of bullets. She is safe, but he is shot and before she can be shot, a truck driver stops and the other car speeds away, but her new friend dies before she can help him. Keri is questioned when the authorities arrive, but she has no idea why the lawyer was killed.
