He will be alone for at least six months at a time, but he appears to welcome the solitude as a sort of penance for returning from a war that claimed so many other lives. Despite Tom's stoicism, his life takes a turn for the better when he meets Isabel (Alicia Vikander), the beautiful daughter of his new boss. Her vibrancy and warmth take him aback, but as he writes to her from Janus, he admits that "he can't stop thinking about her."

In a return to the mainland a few years later, Tom encounters Lucy's biological mother, Hannah Roennfeldt (Rachel Weisz), which begins a spiral of guilt and confession.

They try once more. Again, it ends in tragedy. But one day, as Isabel and Tom mourn their loss, a rowboat washes ashore. Inside is a dead man and a baby girl. Tom insists that he reports the find, but Isabel, desperate in her grief, begs to keep the baby. No one on the mainland even knows Isabel lost their second baby; she promises no one would ever know. Tom relents, and the baby something. With a story so in the first place, Director Derek Ciank of trust in his france's audience is as frustrating as the character struggles unfolding on the screen.
