Tom's wife was killed by a drunk driver yesterday and there was nothing he could do about it. But wait…

There was. He had a time machine!

It wasn't as if other time-displacers hadn't done what he was contemplating. It was his wife for God's sake.

Yes… It was settled. Morning, before work, he would surprise her. Maybe even make love to her and skip work altogether. The mistake...

He could not unsee. He discovered his wife's affair with his brother. He saw too much. What if they were in that car together?

They could be, he had a time-machine!
