Carol, a renowned psychiatrist, is introduced to the virus by one of her patients who frantically claims that her husband "is not her husband." As more cases like this emerge, Carol and Ben realize that the alien virus is spreading quickly and infecting humans while they sleep. Benny, a colleague of Carol, believes that the virus is a result of biological warfare; however, Carol is convinced that it is an extraterrestrial invasion.
As the virus continues to spread, Carol discovers that her son Oliver may hold the key to defeating the aliens. She races against time and her own emotions to find him before it's too late.
