Summary A young penniless Greek man with an easy-going charm named Alekos Mykonos has come to Gibsons looking for his grandfather, and asks Nick, as the resident Greek, about his grandfather's whereabouts. What little Nick knows is that Alekos' grandfather used to live in Gibsons but moved away about five years ago to parts unknown. Alekos uses his Greek sensibilities to earn a little money while he's in Gibsons, such as doing odd jobs for Nick and those at The Reach, but it's one of his side ventures that could cause a problem for his new friends. Beyond this issue, Nick eventually learns that Alekos is in the country illegally, he being a ship jumper. He and Sara have to convince Alekos that the best way to locate his grandfather is through legal means, as if immigration catches up with him before he returns to the ship, he will be deported and probably never allowed back into the country, which means he will never be able to reconnect with his grandfather, wherever he may be in Canada.
