Originally, Tara Summer had been concealing things from the Summer Family and Josie Reed, but the truth doesn't stay buried forever, and Ethan Summer heard about it and rushed to Saint Emperia Island.
Victoria Saber and Robin Summer were abroad, and afraid they'd worry, Ethan Summer didn't inform them, choosing instead to go to the island with George Summer.
Seeing her grandfather and brother, Tara Summer hugged them and couldn't stop her tears. After Tara Summer repeatedly urged him, Ethan Summer agreed not to tell Josie Reed about Nine's disappearance for now.
Ethan Summer and George stayed on the island for two days. One night, Tara Summer found a moment to chat alone with her grandfather, telling him about Rudy, which made Ethan Summer very emotional and he began to believe that Bastian would eventually return!
