Elsie Harrison sees a vision of a future she must prevent. The tea leaves have never been wrong before and Elsie has no reason to doubt them this time. Doing everything she can think of, she tests the future's obduracy and attempts to bend it's path, hoping that some small nudges will be enough. As usual, her husband Ethan is sceptical and unbelieving... even when it is his life that is on the line.
