One night, Mike is woken up not only by bright lights but also an alien being. Adding to his distress is the fact that Emma thinks he dreamed up the encounter.

I was really interested in trying to see if I could take the audience from not liking this guy to starting to understand him and then start to actually care about him once the ending happens.” Mike finds the carefully guarded boundaries of his life quickly eroded beyond his control, many of them even before his close encounter.
