While on vacation, Ed Lucas presents his wife Kate with a souvenir of "The Concrete Captain," a small chunk of concrete with a miniature harpoon sticking out of it.

But when Kate becomes ill, and starts acting strangely, Ed wonders if the Concrete Captain hasn't returned to try to claim Kate as his own.
