A girl named Jane grows up in an orphanage and never knows her parents. One day, she falls in love with a drifter, who impregnates her and disappears. When it is time to have the baby, the doctors discover that Jane has a rare birth defect and actually possesses both male and female reproductive organs. In order to save her and the baby’s lives, they need to convert “her” into a “him.” After the baby is born, someone steals it from the nursery. Unable to cope with the loss of lover and child, Jane (remember, Jane is now a “he”) spirals into depression and becomes a drifter. One day, he wanders into a bar and relates his story to an oddly understanding bartender. He tells Jane that he can set things right, but Jane must become a member of the Time Traveler’s Corps in exchange. Jane agrees, and they step into a time machine. Once they are back in time, Jane falls for an orphan girl, and after a short time, impregnates her. Then he and the bartender travel forward nine months, where Jane takes the child from the nursery . . . and drops it on the steps of an orphanage 25 years earlier. Afterward, they return to the present, and Jane becomes a member of the Time Traveler’s Corps. A few years in the future, he disguises himself as a bartender and travels back for an important meeting with a lonely drifter. What does all this mean? Jane, the drifter, her child, and the bartender (heck, Jane’s entire family tree) are all the same person. Have we twisted your brain into a pretzel yet?
