Synopsis

A letter from his daughter, Vicki, brought Captain Stubing unexpected news. A call to her revealed she had fled the home of her aunt and uncle. Shortly thereafter, she appeared on the ship, declaring she had read her mother’s diary and now knew the captain was her father. She expressed a desire to remain with him, but he felt compelled to return her to her family. Vicki's aunt explained she was divorcing and wished to remove her children from the situation, hoping to shield them from the turmoil
