Bob. a nervous guy in the middle of his college course when one day on his way home he
meets Steve who’s the exactly the same age but is a much more confident and witty guy
and the two instantly bond, however what Bob doesn’t know is Steve is an alternate
universe version of himself brought over here by a freak accident when he was messing
around with a machine.
Steve is conflicted whether he should tell Bob or keep it a secret while trying to get back
to his own time.
The plans however don’t go to plan when they realise, they have developed feelings for
each other. This puts Steve in a position of having to reveal to Bob that despite the
different upbringing due to the alternate universe where Bob was swapped at birth, they
are technically the same person.
Bob is shocked but happy he knows why he doesn’t resemble his parents but accepts
Steve and the two of them kiss.
The happiness is short lived when universal anomalies start happening and they both
know what they must do.
By working together, they’re able to reopen the portal knowing Steve needs to return.
Bob and Steve have an emotional kiss goodbye and close the portal together on either
side.
Thanks to the emotion support from Steve, Bob finds it in himself to become a lot more
confident.
