2023 The Persistence of Time


What Happens

It’s 1957, and two time-traveling detectives work on a case. We’re told how the FBI started using time travel to investigate old cold cases, mostly just for historical documentation. He explains that you can’t go back to the same point in time twice once you’ve been there; no do-overs. 

The agents go into the motel room and find parts of a body; where did the rest of her go? Detective Roni turns the body over and sees that it’s… herself. 

This isn’t going to end well, is it?

Commentary

That’s not how you pronounce “Temporal.” “Something’s out there, watching us. We never knew. Not until we went too far and messed with things out of our control.”

Time travel is always fun, and mixed with existential horror, it can only work out badly in the end. 

Nice!
