The main feature was that getting into any other year, the appearance changes — a person becomes one of those who lived at that time. Ben Song, along with Addison and his comrades, decided to organize another time jump, and Addison was supposed to be the test subject.

But shortly before the jump, the team learns that Ben jumped instead of his lover. Moreover, he has completely lost his memory and does not understand what is happening. Before leaving his friends, Ben changed important values ​​in the program and did not bother to tell anyone about it. Trying to help the guy return, Addison takes the form of a hologram and comes to him.

With the help of Addison, Ben gets the job done, but instead of returning to his own time, he disappears…
