Carrie Wallace lies bleeding in the street, apparently the victim of an automobile accident. As she gazes into the environment around her, she experiences flashes of memory.

She quickly realizes that each of these memories shared a common trait: Each culminates in an insincere apology, without any hint of real sorrow or regret. But despite her lifetime's experience, she holds out hope that she may yet witness a true expression of remorse.
