Unable to return to his mom and dad, Sam is shoved to and fro by the panicked crowd. The train picks up speed, racing through the dark night. Should Sam jump to save himself? He's no stuntman. He's just a kid, a rower from Washington, DC. He's way out of his element. Soon, sparks swirl and smoke fills his nostrils.
