Lightning In The Western Sky takes a brand new and completely different look at what happens when a salesman, Mitch Cooper, comes across a magic oil lamp. He is initially skeptical of the mythical properties of the lamp, but curiosity gets the better of him and he eagerly contemplates his anticipated three wishes. However he is completely surprised to learn from the "genie" that instead getting three wishes, he has to grant three wishes. He is given a six month deadline to fulfill his tasks, but is hindered by not being able to ask anyone to make a wish. He has to wait until he hears someone wishing for something and then grant it. He is told that should he fail to grant the wishes in the prescribed time frame, then three of his worst nightmares will come true. To complicate matters even further he has to juggle the demands of the "genie" with a crumbling relationship with his wife, and demanding job.
