Will exits Maya's building carrying the giant Hugzilla, which blocks his sightline. A cyclist — GRAHAM — slams into him. Will falls. Graham hits the pavement, blood at his hairline. Will tries to help; Graham coughs, bleeds.
Evening. Will and Graham walk a sodium-lit street, shutters half-down, shop lights dying. Graham grabs Will's arm and rewinds time — they're on the same street, earlier. Graham explains the rules of travel: can't go before birth or after death, always end up wherever your body was.
Two years later. Will sits under a tree on a park hill, reading his notebook. IRIS walks up and sits beside him. They greet casually. A quiet, reflective beat.
Friday night bar atmosphere. Will stands at a high-top with Iris and friends, slightly drunk. He threads through the crowd to the bar, where he meets HANNAH — she strikes up conversation. They talk about grief, Julia's sister, meeting people. Then JULIA steps up, introduces herself. She's with Hannah — puts her arm around her.
University cafeteria. Bright, high glass, pendant lamps. Will sits at a table. Hannah approaches, spots him, sits nearby. They talk about how they keep running into each other. Hannah mentions Julia's sister. Will mentions Maya died. Hannah extends sympathy — a genuine connection.
Same café, corner window table. JULIA in the black dress comes out of the bathroom and crosses to the counter where JANA serves her. Julia's phone dies trying to pay. WILL appears and swipes his phone to pay for her latte — taking Josh's original role. Julia is surprised and grateful. HANNAH is also present. Timeline has been altered.
Street. Will walks away from the café. GRAHAM intercepts him — says Will has changed something. Graham is furious, grabs Will's wrist. "This isn't a game."
Midday. Will suddenly appears on a street holding a coffee cup. No sign of where he is. He walks, then hears a car crash O.S. He rounds the corner and finds HANNAH lying on the street, dying. Blood, broken glass. Will panics — this is the consequence of his changes.
REPEAT of 1.07 — same garden path, same staging. Hannah bursts out of Josh's house. Will grabs her shoulder, spins her around. Now seen from Will's POV. He was at the crash. She's terrified. Must match 1.07 exactly — same wardrobe, same blocking.
