| Plot Summary of Oceans Apart |
"Connor Evans is an airline pilot who seems to have it all: a great job, a beautiful home, and a good family – the loving wife Michele and two young daughters. However, for the last eight years Connor has been keeping a secret: he had had an affair, a one-night stand with a flight attendant, Kiahna Siefert. He had been faithful to his wife since, he hadn't even seen the woman he'd slept with, so he has pushed the whole thing out of his mind and lives as if it never happened.
But one day the past comes alive. A plane crashes in the Pacific Ocean; one of the victims is Kiahna, the flight attendant. She leaves behind a seven-year-old son Max. In her will, Kiahna states that Max is Connor's son, and requires that Connor is notified. She also requires that Connor must spend two weeks with him. It is up to Connor then whether he will tell Max that he is his father and adopt him or turn him over to the state."
