Prior to their encounter, he is a doctoral student who manages his destructive thoughts with compulsive calculations about time travel; she is a bipolar counterfeit artist, undergoing court-ordered psychotherapy.

But this is not a story about endings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor Regan, people are predictable and tedious, including and perhaps especially herself. She copes with the dreariness of existence by living impulsively, imagining a new, alternate timeline being created in the wake of every rash decision.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo Aldo, the world feels disturbingly chaotic.
