As counterpoint to this, an embittered man is released from a 10-month prison term. Sully Harding was in (and possibly caused) an airplane accident. While rushing to see what happened to him in the crash, his wife had a car crash of her own, fell into a coma and died soon after. Sully — unfairly imprisoned, bereft, with a 6-year-old boy to take care of — is now a furious atheist, brokenhearted, totally alienated from God and man. When he realizes that his son is yearning for a phone so that his mom might call, Sully tries to expose the fact that these messages from Heaven can’t be real.
