A body is found in the crash site but it turned out to be Nick's officemate whose name was not listed in the passenger manifesto. The "death" of Nick caused great grief to Vanessa since she was already betrothed to be married to the young man. On the remote island, Nick meets Modesto Mallari, a marine biologist. Because of his memory loss, Nick introduces himself as Darwin. Mallari takes Darwin to his home where he introduces his daughter, Jessa. As time passes by, the two develop feelings for each other and have a child together. Darwin becomes involved in another accident that triggers the return of his past memories.
