After Mary's pioneering groundbreaking method for forecasting solar flares forewarns of an apocalypse-level catastrophe, she grapples with the daunting task of validating her chilling prediction. She turns to an old colleague and friend to confirm her work, revealing it came from a dream, but insists it is accurate. Her friend encourages Mary not to go public until there is confirmation. Mary, dissatisfied with her friend's advice, risks her career and friendships to warn the world of the impending disaster, only to be ignored.
