In the final chapter, you'll learn about what happened to the whales that escaped from Pedder Bay, and the legacy of both the orcas and the humans involved in the capture of these whales on Vancouver Island in 1970.

In this penultimate chapter, orca researcher Graeme Ellis provides clues on who let the whales out. Also, the fate of the prized Chimo the white whale and her aggressive cousin Nootka.

The two remaining orcas in the Pedder Bay net pen have been sold to an American aquarium, but with local opposition heating up, an incredible event occurs that stuns all involved: the whales escape. But who helps them?

After eight months of traumatic capitivity in Pedder Bay, the remaining two orcas - Charlie and Flo - manage to escape with human help. But who aided in their release? Also: the fate of Chimo the white whale and Nootka.

In this chapter, you'll hear about the desperate attempts to get the two remaining older whales - Charlie, and his mother 'Pointed Nose Cow' eating something - anything - for the first time in months. And some unlikely companionship: local children discover the orcas penned in Pedder Bay, Vancouver Island, 1970.
