Professor Cha has trouble adjusting to being a "coma ghost". He meets the chairman, whom he operated on last (also as a "coma ghost). He begins to suspect that something went deliberately wrong after the surgery. He also meets another ghost that helps explain the rules of what he needs to do to stay alive.
