When Will's grandfather suggests a hunting trip, Will thinks it will be a good way for him to spend time with his dad. Unfortunately, it's not until Will, his father, and his grandfather are in the thick of the expedition that Will realizes how horrified he is at the idea of shooting a goose. When Will finally does shoot at the bird, he doesn't kill it, but injures it severely. Wracked by guilt, Will nurses the goose back to health and tries to come to terms with his father.
