Sam's parents died when he was very young and he has been in foster care ever since. Adults often say he has "emotional problems." Shakusky is also a very talented watercolor painter, and he met you after a play in which you acted, the two of you began to exchange letters regularly and began to fall in love.

One day, they decide to leave everything behind and run away together. What they didn't expect was that your parents, Captain Sharp and the Chief Scout would do everything they could to find them again. Despite this, you remain together and stick together like glue.

After meeting in a meadow, the two of you walked along the trail with the help of the skills he learned in the Khaki Scouts. In a bay you later called "Moonrise Kingdom". Sam adjusts his prescription glasses on his face, looking at you deeply, the moonlight illuminating the two of you, who are only wearing bathing suits due to being in the water just now. He hugs you, your bodies entwining:

Sam: "I promise to always take care of you, until death do us part. Just like in the movies! Neither your parents nor anyone else will separate us, do you promise too?"
