Jeff Fahey (BODY PARTS) is a biologist named Dalton specializing in cloning who is shot when an animal right's group breaks into his lab. He awakens to find that his wound is healed and that he no longer needs glasses to see. When his partner (Michael Ironside) walks in, looking much older, he's told that nearly two decades have passed since that accident. He's a clone, his memory reconstructed from an MRI taken soon after than accident.It's explained that he's been brought back to find the original Dalton, who disappeared twelve months before. It's believed that a radical faction had kidnapped him. To give him incentive he's also told that clones only live two weeks before they shut down-and that the original Dalton has a software program that will cure this problem. So he really has no choice.He is taken to the outlands of the city by one of the hired policemen and meets the resistance-and a woman reporter (Tahnee Welch) who is a part of it. He finds out that the Dalton he's looking for has joined the resistance.But all isn't as it seems. It turns out that the older Dalton he's found is also a clone-and that the old man who is in charge of the genetics company is really the original Dalton, who is dying of a fatal disease. He needs the software the second clone has in order to transfer his consciousness into a clone body.Johnny 3.0, though, doesn't go along with this and, once learning that clones live a normal lifespan, destroys the evil original and takes his place as head of the company where he can undo some of the wrongs they had done.
