After six harrowing months filled with shocking revelations about her life and the people around her, Molly got confined to a psychiatric hospital.

She will work with a stranger named Richter to help save mankind and get some answers for questions that have been haunting her. Unfortunately, teaming with Richter will be difficult because he doesn't believe in aliens.
