His sister Emerald shows up at one of OJ's horse jobs to help and ends up staying at the ranch.
Emerald learns that as a means of getting by, OJ has been selling horses to park owner/ex-child star Ricky Park , whose park is next door to the ranch.
After some time, OJ and Emerald begin to realize that something isn't right in the sky over the ranch.
Emerald contacts a famous filmmaker to come out and try to get some footage of the strange phenomena that is going on, but he declines.
