On New Year's Eve in the north Atlantic Ocean, the ocean liner Poseidon, named after the Greek water god, is on a Transatlantic crossing.
On one of its thirteen decks, we see Dylan Johns an ex-Navy sailor turned professional gambler, running for an evening workout. Meanwhile, in one of the 800 cabins, Jen Ramsey is with her fiancé Christian when they are interrupted by Jen's father, former firefighter and mayor of New York Robert Ramsey who is becoming overprotective of his daughter and indifferent to Christian. Down below in the kitchen, a Spanish woman named Elena, is stowing away onboard from Spain to be with her sick brother in New York, with the help of her friend Valentin, a waiter.
Elsewhere, Richard Nelson, a distraught architect, is calling his ex-lover, only to get the answering machine.
