The young Clay (Hayden Christensen) is worth billions, but his father's death affects him too much, and he hates his mother Lilith (Lena Olin) being in love with him. Clay has also been avoiding letting his mother know that he is in love with his mother's assistant Samantha (Jessica Alba). The more he objected and the more he resisted, he finally married his beloved Samantha. Clay had a serious heart attack and a heart transplant to survive, but he had few blood types, and when he finally found a suitable heart, he refused to let a world-class doctor operate on him. Instead, he chose his good friend doctor Jack (Terrence Howard), a doctor plagued by medical malpractice. When he was ready for surgery, Clay thought he had been anesthetized, but what frightened him was that his consciousness was so clear that he could even feel his body cut open, but he could not move at all. He heard the doctors' conversation, unexpectedly heard the plot between Jack and Samantha, heartbroken he thought he was going to die, but at this time saw his mother, his mother told him not to die.
