In this modern version of Mary Shelley's classic tale, a man is resurrected as a younger version of himself by two billionaire scientists. Founders of a social networking empire, Mary Goodwin and her twin brother, Otto , decide to give new life to Jimmy Pritchard, a former sheriff who was killed during a robbery. In addition to being much younger and getting a second chance at life, Pritchard also finds he has new, astonishing physical abilities. Pritchard must decide whether he should embrace a new sense of purpose -- or fall prey to his former temptations.
Jimmy Pritchard, an aging, disgraced Seattle sheriff who was whisked out of office following a police misconduct scandal he doesn't deny, but characterizes as the unpleasant ends that justify the law-and-order means. Jimmy spends what were supposed to be his golden years boozing and aspirationally flirting with women a third his age until he inadvertently witnesses a burglary at the home of his FBI agent son Duval (Tim DeKay), who followed in his father's footsteps up until the good-cop-bad-cop fork in the road.
The goons kill Jimmy to cover up their crime, but he's resurrected by Otto Goodwin and his twin sister Mary , the co-founders of a world-crushing social media platform called Lookinglass. When they aren't busy running their fictional universe's equivalent to Facebook, the twins are pioneering technology that allows them to take a dead body and not only reanimate it, but turn back the clock, restoring the corpse to its ass-kicking former glory. Jimmy is the lucky recipient of the first human trial, a move hastened by Mary's deteriorating health as her cancer grows more aggressive. The break comes with a catch- the revitalized Jimmy isn't the only one getting a new lease on life, and he's being farmed for cells so he can grant Mary a new lease on hers.
