Description: Robert Scott Carey, called "Scott", is on vacation with his wife Louise on his brother Charlie's boat off the California coast. When Louise goes below deck for beer, a strange cloud on the horizon passes over the craft, leaving a reflective mist on Scott's bare skin. This, combined with an exposure to insecticide four months later, set off a chain reaction that is mutating Scott's cells, causing him to shrink. Unable to keep his job, Scott resorts to selling the rights to his story to the press, and becomes a national curiosity.
