When four patients unexpectedly wake after being declared dead, their families are ecstatic and the word "miracle" begins to be whispered throughout the hospital. But the jubilation is short lived when the patients don't respond to their names and insist they are different people. It is suggested all four are suffering from fugue states until one of the doctors recognizes a name and verifies that he not only knew the girl but was there when she died in 1992. It soon becomes obvious that the bodies of the four patients are now inhabited by the souls of people long dead.
