The woman who usually helps protects mustangs – Brynna Olson – needs to go away for a couple of weeks.  And so she has a replacement set to cover her at the BLM. She voices her concerns to Samantha about the group of mustangs that no one wants. Although the BLM cannot destroy perfectly healthy horses, Brynna isn’t sure her replacement will follow these rules.

Samantha isn’t sure who would taken on the dozen mustangs who have issues. Their conformation makes them less than desirable for adoption. Sam is devastated to find shortly after Brynna’s departure that her replacement – Norman White – has deemed them unfit. They are set to be euthanised.
