During a brief hospital stay an old man travels back in time as he crosses the stage. From the reality of the hospital he visits his wife and sweetheart as they said goodbye, and then his mother as a young woman. From the mother he crosses back to visit the sweeheart and the wife as they were when they first met and enjoyed time together. Then it's back to the reality of the hospital and the voices of the subconscious.
