Returning to England from a bombing run in May 1945, flyer Peter Carter's plane is damaged and his parachute ripped to shreds. He has his crew bail out safely, but figures it is curtains for himself. He gets on the radio, and talks to June, a young American woman working for the RAF, and they are quite moved by each other's voices. Then he jumps, preferring this to burning up with his plane. He wakes up in the surf. It was his time to die, but there was a mixup in heaven. They couldn't find him in all that fog. By the time his "Conductor" catches up with him 20 hours later, Peter and June have met and fallen in love. This changes everything, and since it happened through no fault of his own, Peter figures that heaven owes him a second chance. Heaven agrees to a trial to decide his fate. - John Oswalt, IMDb

Конец Второй мировой. Самолет Питера Картера горит, парашют разорван в клочья, и летчик выходит в эфир, чтобы в последний раз перед смертью услышать человеческий голос. Он открывает душу услышавшей его девушке по имени Джун и выпрыгивает из падающего самолета, однако не погибает. На Небесах произошла ошибка — Ангел-проводник не смог найти его в тумане. Когда же он отыскивает Питера, тот уже встретился с Джун, и они полюбили друг друга. Питер просит Ангела-проводника, чтобы ему дали еще один шанс, и собирается Суд, который должен решить его судьбу.
