Facing intense media scrutiny over the stalled Sophie Sleep Project, Mr. Johnson searches for a volunteer for the 30-year cryo experiment. A determined young woman, Sophie Johnson, steps forward despite not yet being 18. She is warned she may never wake up and has nothing left to miss. In flashbacks, it's revealed she was a beloved foster daughter until the Johnson's biological daughter, Camille, returned, leading to accusations and rejection. Feeling she stole another's life and is now unwanted, Sophie secretly volunteers, viewing it as repaying the family who raised her, and receives a death certificate, severing her official existence.
