The family shares with her the secrets of the spring. She is fascinated by Jesse Tuck, a boy who's really 104 years old. The Tucks became immortal after drinking water from a spring. She goes out exploring in the woods one day and meets the Tucks. Nothing exciting ever happens, and being in a family of strait-laced blue bloods has cramped her style.
