Astronaut Troy Holloway (Steven Ogg) wakes up after a crash in an escape pod headed straight for the Sun. His oxygen gauge runs out in less than 90 minutes and his chances of survival are slim. However, Commander Roberts (Alice Lowe) unexpectedly radios him and promises to send a rescue unit. As time passes, Holloway begins to lose his temper, so Roberts decides to talk to him about various topics. Before they know it, both of them begin to change their perceptions of life.
