Jake's reappearance is a godsend for his father Harry (Brian Keith), but a mixed blessing for wife Sarah, who has moved on with her life. While old feelings stir in her, Jake confronts the military on how his disappearance was handled, and, more importantly, on how to track down his missing Southeast Asian wife (Kieu Chinh) and child.
