Everything you've done can be seen -- and for everything you didn't do, you can find out how it would go. That's the idea behind Darren Ceverit's invention, the Parallelogram. With all the stress and wishing in his life, he was bound to see how it would go if he was actually "interesting." However, the words "famous" and "iconic" become more accurate, seeing as his invention becomes a smashing success seemingly overnight. But when someone breaks into the major archive and begins tampering with memories -- Darren's included -- Darren is forced to shed the spotlight in the hopes of saving the past, present, and what could have been.
