A maid in a motel just south of the Texas-Mexico border is the first person to find the recordingand listen to it, while finishing her shift.

As a single father struggling to come to terms with raising his autistic teenage son, Jim comes to a drunken realization that hes been robbed of the normal experience of fatherhood, and is likely never to get it back. Accepting that his son, Robin, is a lost cause, Jim is newly determined to explore different avenues through which he can secure more childrenhealthy childrenbefore the time on his clock runs out. But as a man, and as a widower unwilling to have children with a woman other than his deceased wife, the options are few and far between, forcing Jim to take a leap of faith into the arms of a black-market scientist, called Passenger. But not all is what it seems, and sometimes the hope of gaining back what was lost, results in the hell of losing everything else.
