Jess, una madre y enfermera recién separada, se muda a su antigua granja familiar con Tyler, su hija adolescente, y Owen, su hijo de ocho años. Una noche, el perro de la familia detecta algo en el bosque y sale corriendo a buscarlo. Regresa un par de días después y ataca a Owen, mordiéndolo salvajemente antes de que Jess pueda intervenir. Owen es llevado de urgencia al hospital. Su condición empeora y nadie puede entender por qué... hasta que Jess descubre una cura inquietante...
Caroline
It's Christmas with the Chandlers but no one seems to have the Christmas spirit - except for Stephanie, that is. Marci and Blair are obsessing over being the perfect parents, Myra and Donald have retired and suddenly feel useless and Elizabeth is bending over backwards to get a promotion at work. Add to that Stephanie's blooming romance with Lawrence - who is torn between being with her and continuing his mission work - and Christmas seems to be taking a back seat. That is, until a group of kids at an orphanage helps the family to realize that there's more to Christmas than wrapping gifts and baking cookies.
