In the first hour, Holden Matthews miraculously wakes up from a devastating coma to the wonderment of his parents Tom and Diane and younger brother Luke.  But the world has changed since Holden went to sleep, and he now has to navigate being an adult when all he remembers is being a child.  At the same time, Holden is experiencing abilities and memories he can’t explain, and a mysterious woman named Willa warns him not to trust those around him.  When a sinister stranger attacks Holden and claims he knows about his new powers, Holden is faced with uncovering just what happened to him while he was in his coma.

In the second hour, “Tempus Fugit,” Holden attempts to forget about his recent bizarre encounters and lead a “normal” life.  Luke tries to help Holden acclimate to his new surroundings, and brings him along to a college party.  Holden hits it off with a friendly co-ed, but strange memories of Willa lead to disastrous consequences.   Meanwhile, Diane and Tom try to bond with Holden as an adult.
