He is a man whom she has barely heard of for the past dozen years. There was an emotional blowup when Sunshine was just a toddler and her mother ran off with her ne'r-do-well father, who soon enough abandoned them both. But not before Sunshine's father, the man who gave her that name, so turned her mother away from her parents it took a twist of fate to bring them back together again. Charlie is a commercial fisherman, in Bodega Bay, who has just been handed a terminal cancer diagnosis, with less than ten months left on the clock. His wife, Sunshine's grandmother, has been in and out of behavioral health clinics, and that has drained their resources. Charlie has taken to dealing drugs to keep up with the co-pays. It is going well until he tries to up the ante and hawks his boat to Orlando, the man supplying him with his drugs. That's when things begin to fall apart. Charlie soon proves to be an incompetent dealer, reason enough for him to be often threatened and more than once severely beaten. Once Sunshine is re-established, she works to bring her whole family, people she has never met, together for a crab boil on the Fourth of July weekend. Each of them come with their own problems. Sunshine's mother and grandmother are emotionally frail, both of them hanging on the edge. It is through Sunshine's example that her family is able to mend. She finds her first love in Randy, a teen a year ahead of her in her new high school. Randy has a friend, Boomer. He's a brute who threatens Sunshine and who eventually tries to rape her. Randy and Sunshine must rescue Boomer minutes after Randy gets him off Sunshine. He had fallen down a cliff on a moonless night, and clings for his life above the rugged rocks and waves below. They risk their own safety to drag him to the top of the cliff. When he is safe again, Randy pommels Boomer and leaves him to walk home on his own. The next time they see Boomer he has brought a gun into the store where Randy works. In a surprise action he shoots Randy, and levels the gun at Sunshine. It is only through Charlie's quick action that Sunshine is able to escape the attack. Charlie is given no option but to shoot Boomer dead. Despite her need to stay with the stricken Randy, Charlie must recruit Sunshine to crew his boat after his regular crew is forced to leave him. The relationship between Charlie and Sunshine strengthens as they work to bring in enough fish to pay off the ticket on the boat. They are constantly threatened by the Orlando's speed boat that seems to be hanging a few minutes off at all times, keeping watch over their every move. When Sunshine asks to veer off course for a few minutes of sightseeing, Charlie allows it, thinking she deserves a little happiness. He has reached his limit, enough of being told what to do. He arms himself and prepares for a battle as the speed boat rushes toward them. At the same time their boat is overtaken by a rogue wave and Charlie, who is intent on the speed boat, is washed overboard as his boat, with Sunshine aboard, is broken up on the rocks.
