About Countdown to Life: Rescue at 30,000 Feet
America’s top billionaire, Derek Wolf, is dying and hires elite surgeon Shaun to bring a donor kidney by plane for a secret transplant. But the flight is delayed when Kim — mother of Jessica, who’s engaged to Derek’s grandson Erik — goes to the bathroom. When Shaun urges them to hurry, Jessica humiliates him. After takeoff, Kim suffers a heart attack, and Shaun saves her, breaking her ribs in the process. Ungrateful, Jessica demands Shaun apologize in a humiliating way. When he refuses, she threatens to destroy the kidney. Forced to reveal Derek’s condition, Shaun pleads, but Jessica doesn’t believe him — until she smashes the case and sees the name on it: Derek Wolf, her own fiancé’s grandfather.
