Jessica Alba and Canadian actor Hayden Christensen star in this thriller, where Jessica plays the role of an evil young wife who plots against her husband to get all his money. In need of an urgent heart transplant, Jessica sets the scene to have an unsuccessful operation, whereby she will inherit after her husband's death. Little does she nor the doctors know that the husband (Christensen) has not been completely anesthesized, he can hear and feel everything!
