The farmer, Mr. Bailey, hit a stranger with his truck who he initially thought was a deer. He brought the injured stranger home and cared for him, calling a doctor to examine him. The stranger was unable to talk or remember anything. Over the next two weeks living with the Bailey family, the stranger grew fascinated by birds and developed stronger feelings. Eventually, the stranger's memories returned and he realized he needed to leave, hugging the family goodbye.
