Summary	James and Michelle find themselves in the Atlanta airport on a layover. Seemingly interminable delays draw them both to a mysterious flashing green light, and each other. Where James is passive, Michelle is anything but. And she quickly discovers that the flashing green light is actually... a button. Which she presses... Before they can figure up from down, strange, impossible things start happening: snowstorms form inside the B terminal; jungles sprout up in the C terminal; and earthquakes split the ground apart in between...
