Something Weird Plot Summary

What happens in Something Weird from start to finish, spoilers included, with a timeline of 13 key events. The opening is below; the full summary is a 4-minute read.

Spoilers ahead

A man named Cronin Mitchell Tony McCabe survives a near-fatal electrical accident when a maintenance man falls from a power line pole, and the live wire arcs into his face, leaving him in excruciating pain. An ambulance brings him to the hospital, where the aftermath is grim: the other worker dies, but Mitchell lives, his body scarred and his spirit battered.

In the hospital, two doctors, Dr. Roxin Roy Collodi and Dr. White Jeffrey Allen, debate whether Mitchell’s condition includes genuine Extra Sensory Perception as a result of the shock. They run a few ESP tests, and the results seem to suggest something extraordinary. Mitchell’s disfigured appearance compounds a growing sense of hopelessness, and the medical team voices concerns about his will to live.
