As they wait with oxygen cylinders, they witness the world outside succumb to chaos and destruction. Unexpectedly surviving the ordeal, they venture into a devastated countryside, encountering only one survivor. Upon returning home, they learn the ether's effects are temporary, and they must convince a shocked humanity to value life more deeply in the wake of the catastrophe.
