Three years later, the US Army has fled Saigon. Chris has returned to America and, believing Kim is dead, marries an American women named Ellen.
However, unbeknown to Chris, Kim is alive, has left Saigon and is living in poverty with her three year old son, Tam, in Bangkok. When John tells Chris that Kim is alive and has bore Chris a son, Chris and Ellen go to Asia.
When Kim learns that Chris is in Bangkok with his new wife, all her hopes to be reunited with him disappear. She is desperate for her son to have a future in America with his father and will make the ultimate sacrifice to achieve this.
