Narrator Narrator: The immersion in the frigid water caused Adaline's body to go into an anoxic reflex, instantly stopping her breathing and slowing her heartbeat. Within two minutes, Adaline Bowman's core temperature had dropped to 87 degrees. Her heart stopped beating. At 8:55, a bolt of lightning struck the vehicle, discharging half a billion volts of electricity and producing 60,000 amperes of current. Its effect was threefold. First, the charge defibrillated Adaline Bowman's heart. Second, she was jolted out of her anoxic state, causing her to draw her first breath in two minutes. Third, based on Von Lehman's Principle of Electron Compression in deoxyribonucleic acid, which will be discovered in the year 2035, Adaline Bowman will henceforth be immune to the ravages of time. | |||||||||||

Narrator Narrator: To ensure the freedom and safety of herself and her daughter, Adaline vowed to keep moving. Changing her name, residence, and appearance every decade. And never to speak a word of her fate to another living soul. In seven weeks, when Jennifer Larson disappears forever, and Susan Fleisher takes up residence in a remote farmhouse in Ashton, Oregon, Adaline Bowman, aside from one moment of weakness, will have kept her vow for the past 60 years. | |||||||||||
