J. Lynn, a Baltimore artist, reviews her unusual life without any knowledge that Asperger's Syndrome, a mild form of autism, exists. Her life and circumstances certainly are the result of it. She has always been "different." Depressed, overwhelmed, and not knowing how to describe what she's going through to anybody, she tries to figure out things on her own. Will she find some clues in her dreams? She wonders if it's possible to have parallel lifetimes.
Nothing she tries works, and she is ready to give up. She looks back, going deeper and deeper into her past. What is it, the thing that makes her different? Has it prevailed throughout her entire life? If so, does it have some kind of a pattern? Is it responsible for things turning out so badly?
Does it make it possible to dream of the future and possibly travel through time? "A Worst Case Scenario" is the story of her journey to knowing.
