Johnny Smith has been leading an idyllic
small-town life. Employed as a science teacher,
Johnny takes great pleasure in showing his young
students the wonders of the natural world. He is
also newly-engaged to a loving fiancée named
Sarah, a fellow teacher he's known since
childhood, and is a good son to his widowed
mother, who lives nearby. Johnny's life is
nearly perfect - until the day his life is
interrupted by a near-fatal car crash that
leaves him in a deep coma. Six years later,
Johnny finally regains consciousness and
discovers that life as he once knew it has
completely changed. His mother has passed away,
and Sarah has gone on to marry someone else -
and now has a son. But Johnny himself is also
not the same person he once was: he now finds
himself in possession of amazing psychic powers
which allow him to see into the lives of anyone
he touches. Now, as Johnny attempts to
reacquaint himself with a life he has been away
from for six long years, he must also begin a
quest to come to terms with his new abilities -
abilities that may turn out to be both a
blessing and a curse. Helping Johnny make a
fresh start are his physical trainer Bruce, who
also becomes a close friend; his mother's
priest, Gene Purdy, who sets up a trust fund for
Johnny but may not be looking out for Johnny's
best interests; and Sarah, who must find a way
to make Johnny a part of her life again without
risking her relationship with her husband and
son.
