Identical twins, Max and Steven Jordan (Jack Wagner), were separated at birth after a car accident that killed their parents. Max goes on to live a successful life with caring foster parents, but Steven leads a life of despair, and feels that he has been denied the life that he was entitled to, and plots revenge against his unsuspecting brother.
Steven soon gets involved in his brother's idyllic life and begins to manipulate events. In a plot twist, he eventually succeeds by manipulating his brother's wife, Olivia (Alexandra Paul) to kill her legitimate husband, thinking she is killing Steven.
