Afterlife Code


What if our existence was just a level in the cosmic computer game we call "life?" There is no death that is final unless you don't have an "interesting life." And if life is not lived to the fullest you could be deleted. Dr. Melanie Sage and Robert Cobb get a glimpse of the code that happens after life; deletion or level up. That is the question.
