Summary
Roman Melynk is a construction foreman who lost his wife and daughter in a plane collision accidentally caused by Jacob "Jake" Bonanos, the air traffic controller on shift at the time. The airline offered him a large sum of money and gifts so he'd agree to not hold them liable for the accident, but he was only interested in receiving an apology. After he didn't get one from them, he later enlisted the help of a journalist to track down the man he deems directly responsible, Jacob Bonanos. After finding him and still not receiving an apology, he lost all of the control he had left and stabbed Bonanos in the neck and let him bleed to death. He was sent to prison for this crime but was released due to the extenuating circumstances of the case and his superb behavior while institutionalized. He used this freedom to visit the cemetery where his family was buried. While there he was followed by a mysterious man. After helping the man to the exit it was revealed that he is Samuel, the son of Bonanos. Samuel held a gun to Roman's head, but before he could shoot him, Roman apologized and said that he understood what Samuel needed to do. This made the already hesitant Samuel realize what he was doing was wrong, and he let Roman go.
