Then one night, a woman suddenly falls into the pool at his home! Jim is surprised to see that she has damaged wings on her back and understands that she is an angel, but he takes care of her. The angel, who only emits high-pitched cries and does not understand his language, falls in love with him at first sight and does not want to leave his side. In addition, he shows curiosity about everything he sees, which causes him a lot of trouble when he goes out on the town. When Jim's three bad friends learn of the angel's existence, they try to persuade him to make a fortune with it, but he gets angry. Patty becomes jealous when she finds out that Jim is with a woman she doesn't know, and Ed, who has gone to check on Jim for his daughter, is mesmerized by the angel's face and wants to hire her as an image model for his cosmetics company. In an attempt to protect the angel from his bad friends, Patty and Ed, Jim takes the angel to a place in the woods where he had spent time as a child. When his pursuers reached Jim's location, the angel had returned to the heavens with his wings healed, and Jim had collapsed unconscious. Jim was rushed to the hospital, where he was found to have a brain tumor that was threatening his life. The angel who appeared to him was actually a messenger who appeared to take him to heaven. Just when everyone was prepared for Jim's death, a miracle occurs.
