For five years, Evelyn wore the same white dress so her husband Ethan, a top bomb expert with face blindness, could recognize her. But during a bomb hostage crisis, Ethan saves his assistant Melanie, mistakes Evelyn for an impostor, and cruelly torments her. After a fire leaves her disfigured, Evelyn divorces him and starts over with a friend's help. When Ethan finally overcomes his condition and recognizes his wife, he realizes he may have lost her forever.
