LOGLINE
MEET
SARA DEAN
She’s probably the only teacher who’s in it for the money. There’s an open professorship at EVERGREEN COLLEGE (where she teaches) and she needs this promotion to fund her trip to ROMA!
PAST PROBLEMS:
Sara’s father - DEAN OF PHYSICS - has been missing since a mishap in the science lab resulted in an explosion! He had been studying a mysterious TIME ANOMOLY.
PRESENT PROBLEMS:
Sara helps her pupils cheat, but when MILES NEWMAN, a bad student with good morals, breaks in and changes his grade to a FAIL, the professorship goes to Sara’s rival, LANKERSHIM.
FUTURE PROBLEMS:
Lankershim seizes control of the TIME ANOMOLY and travels to the past. Instantly, Washington transforms to LANKERSHIM D.C. - a nightmarish ripple effect! Sara must travel back to stop Lankershim from CHANGING THE FUTURE!
Ancient Rome:
Sara visits the Eternal City where she runs in with HISTORICAL CHARACTERS and even picks a GLADIATOR-STYLE fight with some tweens in the public latrines.
Father Time:
Sara’s dad is stuck in the past masquerading as FATHER TIME. He and Sara have a complicated relationship and their intellectual differences run just as deep.
