Refugee: Isabel: The Straits of Florida – 1994, 1 day (4) Summary & Analysis

Isabel dives into the water and is slammed by waves as she tries to find Señor Castillo. She eventually finds him under the water, not moving, and pulls him up to the surface. Isabel kicks hard, doing as much as she can to keep them afloat. Iván dives in after her, guiding the boat toward them. They then pull Isabel and Señor Castillo into the boat. Señor Castillo remains unconscious for a few moments, then starts to spit up the water he had swallowed. Señora Castillo thanks Isabel.

Geraldo and Lito continue to get the water out of the bottom of the boat. They quickly realize that their medicine, bandages, and matches have fallen into the water. Isabel hopes that they can make it without them, as long as they get the engine running again and get back on track with the sun during the daytime. The others continue to bail water out of the boat through the night, as the waves grow higher and higher. The next morning, they see that a storm is rolling in.
