The family must keep her with them until they know she can be trusted with their secret. Meanwhile, Winnie's parents and a devious man are all in search of her and the Tuck family. Winnie grows to love Jesse and his whole family and is in no hurry to leave, but they are eventually found and are in danger. The Tuck's must go on the run again and leave Winnie behind. Jesse tells her to wait for him and drink of the spring so she too can live forever and be there when he returns.
