Sons of the Song

In the next verse of the Song, Christopher greets his father with mixed feelings, gratitude over his saving Chriss and Martys life and anger over being abandoned by this father as a boy. Michael Powell and Dr. Page give Chris their side of the story, much different from what his mother had led him to believe. Christopher is just adjusting to this when his ex-wife, Tracey, thrusts her small boy, Josh, at him, saying he is the childs father, conceived days before their divorce. She is leaving him with Chris. The child looks exactly like Chris, but DNA tests show that though he is related to the child, he is not the father. Michael assumes this boys father is his son from his philandering youth. When the ex-wife demands Josh back, the judge allows it. Losing this child sends Marty spiraling onto a deep depression. Eleven-year-old Cayla hates to see her mother so sad and goes to Tracey to get Josh back. While she is in Traceys apartment, Jake, Joshs father, shows up, and a fight ensues. There is a terrible incident, and Jake flees the scene with both Cayla and Josh. An hour later, Christopher is brought in for questioning for Traceys murder. A lineup proves him innocent and allows him to go with the police to find his children. Jake, with the children, is cornered on the bridge over the Percy Priest Dam. What happens on that bridge brings all the sons of the Song together.
