There is a small clock repair shop, somewhere out there, where three tinkerers live. Their job is to keep time operating the way the gods want it to operate, but Presley believes that some humans deserve to be given more time. Meanwhile, Wyatt is waiting in a hospital lobby for his younger sister to wake up from a coma. As her new guardian, he struggles to see whether his past relationship with their father means he is destined to repeat the past. These two worlds collide as Presley and Wyatt contemplate fate, time, and what it means to overcome generational trauma.
