Dennison seemed omnipotent on the boat, but now Captain James, whom Dennison pushed overboard more than half a day ago, is equally powerful in the still waters. 
They both have reached a moment of deadlock.  But as the sands of time trickle down second by second, Dennison realizes that the man in the water is just as dangerous as ever…
