Abbie Polin, a New York heart surgeon, has a heart attack in the middle of surgery. An expert, he is able to instruct his colleagues on exactly what to give him and do to minimize the damage.
Abbie is later placed in a room and put on monitors. Fighting off sleep triggers a childhood memory in which he also resisted sleeping with his unsympathetic dad.
