Part 4/9:
As Evan transitions into college, he becomes fixated on the mechanics of memory, yearning to comprehend how to alter their painful pasts. His obsession leads to time travel, offering him a chance to right the wrongs of his youth. Unfortunately, his efforts to navigate and manipulate time come with unforeseen consequences. Each alteration seems to perpetuate further tragedies rather than heal the wounds.
His first attempts to prevent traumatic incidents result in new tragedies, including Kaylee becoming a drug-addicted prostitute. This dire realization forces Evan to confront the understood reality of temporal manipulation: changing one event could unravel another, leading to this cyclic chaos of causation.
