Harlan Denbo is an older man living in a cabin who is forced to evacuate with his sick wife when a wildfire engulfs their home.

Biography[]

Evacuating his home[]

Harlan is approached by Vince and encouraged to evacuate the hillside due to an encroaching fire. However, having lived there for 43 years and been evacuated multiple times before without incident, Harlan is reluctant to do so again. With Vince failing to convince him to leave, he sends Jake and Eve to scare Harlan into evacuating, but he is unmoved. With Harlan refusing to leave, Vince leads his crew in prepping Harlan's house, for which he shows his gratitude by accosting Freddy and Gabriela for not working hard enough.

Despite their best efforts, the fire is spreading closer to Harlan's home. With few options left, he asks Vince to evacuate his wife. He initially claimed he was alone because when they evacuated a year ago, it set her back, as she has heart failure. Once inside, Harlan reveals that his house isn't insured. For 43 years, he paid on time, but two months ago he stopped because he could only afford his wife's medicine. Should his house go up in flames, he'll have nothing. Shortly after sending his wife away, the house catches fire. Harlan runs back inside to find his wallet, with Bode not far behind. Feeling as though he can offer nothing more, Harlan contemplates simply staying in the house, but Bode convinces him otherwise.[1]
