In 2005, Mateo, a small-town Minnesotan repairman, goes to visit his friend Avi and see his physics experiment involving sending subatomic particles forward in time. Instead, he falls through an accidentally created wormhole into another time and place, where everyone hates him on sight for some reason. While his friends work to get him home, he tries to stay out of trouble and figure out what's going on, but it turns out the people in this strange new time are in serious trouble too and might need his help. Hilarity ensues.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Contains a major First-Episode Twist and several Walking Spoilers, so only click the spoilers if you really mean it.

A Friend in Need: Avi is desperately trying to reproduce the freak accident that sent Mateo through time while keeping it secret so nobody thinks he's delusional and takes away his access to the physics lab. A friend of his and Mateo's, Colette, figures out what's going on, and eventually finds evidence of Mateo in the past, which allows them to calibrate and reopen the wormhole. She also puts herself at risk when somebody has to pass through the wormhole to help dial in the time/place it links to, either from a Portal Cut or being Trapped in the Past. Nigel also goes out of his way to help Mateo settle in, and later to find a way to return him to his own time.
