Episode 1

Jason stepped into a dark building, surrounded by haze.His eyes slowly moved up, and he walked out of a strange black cube.

Jason is a man with a warm family, a virtuous wife Daniela and a smart teenage son Charlie.

Jason also has a close friend, Ryan.During a drive to school, Lane called Jason to share the Pavia Prize, a scientific distinction he had just won.This not only means that Lane will receive a million-dollar bonus, but also an opportunity for him to open his own research fund.

As a physics teacher at Lakemont Middle School, Jason discusses the profound subject of Schrödinger's cat with students in class.However, the ringing of the bell interrupted his unfinished words.

Jason's life seemed to change in some way, especially after he returned home and started writing a diary, recording the important moments of each day.Meanwhile, his wife, Daniela, is not only an art connoisseur but is also passionate about fitness.She discusses dinner with Jason and eventually convinces him to meet Ryan.Ryan happened to be at a bar in town called the Country Pub that Jason frequented.

The pair drank scotch at the bar until the early hours, and the conversation always revolved around science.Ryan offers Jason a tempting opportunity to work on a massive project worth hundreds of millions of dollars.However, considering that San Francisco, where the project was located, was far away from his hometown of Chicago, Jason declined.

Jason felt confused and disillusioned on his way home when he unexpectedly bumped into a masked man.The man held Jason at gunpoint, forced him into his car and drove to an isolated location.The masked man knew all about Jason's personal affairs and even mentioned his friend Ryan.

After being taken to a secluded area, Jason was forced to strip naked and his belongings were searched one by one, including his precious wedding ring.The masked man handed Jason a flashlight and ordered him to walk into the depths of an abandoned warehouse.After being sedated, Jason was forced to put on his clothes and then passed out.

When Jason woke up again, he found himself facing a masked man.The man holds a mysterious box in his hand, called the “Possibility” Box.When the man opens the box, it emits an ominous glow.He asks Jason if he feels happy, which is a puzzling question.

Jason eventually wakes up and finds himself in front of a group of doctors.They, from a company called Velocity, cut off his torn clothes, sprayed him with disinfectant and eventually placed him in a brand new room.This room is filled with clean clothes and a double bed, which seems to indicate that Jason is about to start a new life.

However, Jason's world has been turned upside down.A knock on the door broke the silence, and a new figure walked into the room.The woman, named Amanda, hugged Jason warmly and asked how he was doing.She was a stranger to Jason, but the news she brought brought him some comfort.It turned out that he had passed quarantine and inspection of all biological material.

However, questions arise one after another.Jason struggled to understand what was going on.He was brought to a man named Layton.Layton revealed that Jason is actually the chief scientific officer and co-founder of Velocity.He was responsible for all affairs of the company, but had been missing for 14 months.

When Jason mentioned Ryan Holder's name, both Layton and Amanda's expressions became extremely serious.Their relationship seems to hold a dark secret that Jason is eager to solve.

On the way back to his room, Jason decisively seized the opportunity to escape.He nimbly climbed up the outer wall, successfully hailed a taxi, and sped home.Clutching in his hand was a small plastic bag containing all the items in his room: keys, a mysterious box, and other personal items.Jason was anxious and quickly opened the door with the key.

However, what greeted him was not the wife Daniela he was expecting, but Amanda.So, what about the masked man?He actually returned home, and he was Jason himself.But this Jason is different from the previous Jason in that he has no scar on his nose.He walked over to Daniela and the two started talking, seemingly familiar with each other.

At the same time, Jason was panicked by this sudden change.In this reality, he becomes the winner of the Pavia Prize, living with Amanda instead of Daniela.He tried to clear his mind, but everything seemed so confusing.

While Jason is in trouble, Amanda calmly points out that in this reality, he doesn't have a wife.This was a whole new world, one he had never imagined.Unable to accept all this, Jason rushed out the door and fled this strange home.

Cut to masked Jason's perspective, he manages to find Daniela and takes her upstairs.The two began to kiss passionately, as if they were leaving all their doubts and confusion behind.However, Daniela noticed the bandage on Jason's arm and curiously asked what it was about.

“If you told me, you wouldn't believe it, ”The masked Jason replied mysteriously, leaving a suspense.
