His unexpected return, however, is shrouded in a veil of secrecy, as the powers that be insist he must keep his miraculous reappearance under wraps due to the volatile nature of the still unresolved MIA issue. Jake acquiesces, but his compliance comes with a critical condition - they must aid in bringing his Vietnamese wife and children to the safety of American soil. As Jake navigates this complex web of political delicacies, he is drawn back into the bosom of his estranged family. His father, a man weathered by time and loss, reveals an unexpected truth - Jake has a son from his first wife, a young man grown in his absence.
