In tonight’s explosive premiere, danger lurks at every turn. A stealth bomber plummets from the sky and crashes into a backyard picnic — sending chaos through an unsuspecting family’s day. Then, two young girls fall through the ice — but will anyone make it in time to save them from certain death? Next, the drama intensifies when a hot air balloon explodes after hitting a power line, sending flames into the sky.
