Rut "Rudy" Rabin is celebrating the capture of Jim the vole thanks to a trap given to him by Heather Mason, a naturalist who promises to deliver Jim to a safer place. However Rudy's victory is short lived as images of his grandparents -- Simcha and Daniel appear trying to advocate for vole animal welfare instead of making sure the voles wouldn't harm anyone else. Aside from that, Jim's brother Robert is forced to live by himself even move in with Agis the Elder at the old oak tree.
