The female of the group, named Kanaalaq, has what Charlie suspects is tuberculosis. In exchange for some ivory, Charlie agrees to fly her to a hospital in Yellowknife. En route back to the city, Charlie is forced to make a crash landing when the plane develops mechanical problems. Although both Charlie and Kanaalaq are unharmed by the crash, the plane is totaled, they are in the middle of nowhere, the radio doesn't seem to be working, they have a meager amount of supplies, and Charlie's whereabouts are probably unknown to others since he made a detour from his original route.

like that in front of her for, huh?

I didn't know she was standing there.

Jesus, Carl.

You know Charlie's got women

stashed all over the bloody map.

I know, but shouldn't we have

heard something by now?

Hey, don't worry about it.

He's fine.

I'll start worrying

about Charlie Holladay

five minutes after

hell freezes over.

I'll tell ya what though...

one hell of a good time.

Sh*t! No!
