An old man living beside the Glassy Ocean sees a whale leap. Here, time flows at a snail's pace… The whale hangs in the air, taking all day to slip back into the Glassy Ocean. As they watch the spectacle, the old man and other bystanders experience a variety of sensations and adventures resurrected from their minds.
