The people in Josh's organization see Peter as an opportunity to push for their cause. Jerome and his logger buddies see the jobs that put food on their tables being threatened. As the botanist becomes a victim of both sides, Josh and Jerome find themselves struggling to protect each other from bitter retaliance while keeping true to their beliefs.
