A gel-like substance is suddenly discovered across the country. Ted Stevens, a Director in the Department of Homeland Security, is assigned to investigate. He enlists the help of scientists at a government laboratory to analyze the 'goo'. They discover the substance was sent to Earth and has unique properties; it can clone animals. Ted soon learns the substance can also clone humans. Sue is the first of eleven new people cloned from the alien substance. She and the others arrive with no prior knowledge (and no clothes ). They are discovered and recovered by Ted and contained on an abandoned military base. While there, the clones learn about themselves and the world around them. And they receive a message. Sue decides she must deliver it, and one morning they find she's gone. During the recovery of Sue, Ted learns of the clones' message and begins to understand their true intentions. He needs to know more about the clones before he makes a life-changing decision, so he collects samples for DNA fingerprint testing. The fate of the new people will be decided by the results from Ted's friends at the laboratory.
