Leta 1962 je bil Calvin Webber genialen, a tudi sila čudaški znanstvenik s preganjavico, ki je s soprogo Helen živel v Los Angelesu. Sredi napete politične krize s kubanskimi balističnimi izstrelki je na njuno dvorišče treščilo letalo. Webberjeva sta eksplozijo zamenjala za bombni napad in se nemudoma zatekla v vrhunsko podzemno zaklonišče, da bi bila varna pred jedrskim žarčenjem. Tam se je rodil in pozneje odrastel njun sin Adam. Po 35 letih ga starša naposled pošljeta na površje po zaloge hrane in ženo zanj – po možnosti čedno dekle, ki ne bi bilo mutantka, s pomočjo katere bi "vnovič poselil uničeni planet"...
