How well do you know the one you love?

When astronaut Spencer Armacost returns to Earth after a mission that nearly cost him his life, he decides to take a desk job in order to see his beautiful wife, Jillian, more often.

As Jillian grows closer to becoming a mother, her suspicions about Spencer return. Why does it seem as if he's a different person?
