Ethaniel (Cameron Bancroft) has been sent to Earth to stop Banning and to search for his missing brother, Thorber (Hannes Jaenicke), but when a crash leaves him without his memories a psychologist, Dr. Laura Keating (Ingrid Kavelaars), a specialist in phenomena such as telepathy and remote viewing, gets involved in the fight to save Earth.
