This time-loop romance drama follows Xavier, a teen who travels back to 1998 after uncovering an old metal box at his family’s old house. He discovers his father Marcus was a closeted gay football star in high school, whose first love bore an identical face to Xavier himself. Trapped in the past, Xavier learns Marcus suffers from low sperm motility—meaning the only way he can secure his own birth is to donate sperm to young Dana, his future mother. Torn between deep love for teenage Marcus and the harsh rule that their affection makes him fade from existence, Xavier navigates high school conflicts, hostile rival Brad, and homophobic grandfather Coach Cole. After a heartbreaking mid-game disappearance sends him back to 2025, Xavier reunites with a middle-aged Marcus who waited 27 years. The story culminates at the championship game, where they resolve decades of resentment, confront all foes, and embrace an unbreakable cross-timeline love.
