Though Lisa’s workaholism is undermining her relationship with Jack Ryan, she can’t let up. Not now when she’s this close to clinching the deal to sell Déjà Brew, a risky potion that transports customers to key moments of their past, through Jack’s family company.
Jack’s skeptical but willing to try—even going so far as to sample the potion. He has a great visit to the past, reliving the first time he and Lisa made love. He comes back happy and ready to commit. However, Lisa’s trip ends up traumatic—and Jack immediately rethinks the deal.
But Lisa isn’t giving up and persuades him to try the brew again. Together, they return to a romantic time in their past, which quickly goes south—the night they agreed to let a friend film them making love, the night their relationship problems began. They got through the pain once—but it’s not at all clear they can do so again.
