Episode 1: Turn back time.
In a dark abandoned area, a man is crying, struggling to stand up while bleeding. Another man stands over him with a gun. At a hospital, a patient is being resuscitated.
Great, the show’s main protagonist, wakes up on his bed, late for his exam. After getting a call from his friend, he gets off his bed, feeds his cat, and prepares for university. Now heading out, he suddenly feels lightheaded, and his heartbeat hastens while inside his apartment complex’s elevator. Ultimately, he gets out of the elevator confused and out of breath.
Meanwhile, Great’s brother Korn walks into an office where he finds his dad. It seems that it is Korn’s first official day on the job. The two talk about his position in the company, Sriwat Cargo, and his new role in the investment department. He tells him about the potential he sees in him. He in turn promises that he won’t disappoint him. As Korn is about to leave, a woman, who is revealed to be his stepmom, greets him and bids him good luck.
Back to Great who is now on the verge of being late, speeds. Inside a tunnel, all of a sudden, due to his fast driving hits a woman and runs away from the scene out of shock and panic. However, he is mysteriously transported back four minutes earlier from the accident. He is back in the car just before he enters the tunnel.
As Great begins to drive, now way slower compared to his first attempt, he still is unable to stop himself from hitting the woman albeit now, slower compared to before. He chooses to stay and calls paramedics. The woman who is revealed to be suicidal is rushed to an ambulance.
When the woman arrives at the hospital, she is put under the care of Doctor Tyme. The woman communicates to the doctor her intention to die and refuses treatment. Tyme however tells her that she can die just not under his care. Doctor Den who is tending to her with Doctor Tymeasks about her family and persuades her to get treatment.
Inside the OR, Tyme successfully operates on the woman. He is asked by the attending if he is interested in becoming an instructor after his training but he rejects the offer.
Korn’s position in the company is revealed little by little when he is seen overseeing an underground office filled with workers in their computers. After a tiring day, he is seen coming home to his boyfriend, Tonkla, who he shares an intimate night with.
The next scene shows Great arriving late to his family dinner where Korn, their dad, and stepmom are already sitting waiting for him. Great sits at the opposite end of the table away from his family. Their dad tells him that he already cleared the incident with the police. Irritated, he asked when he would stop ruining his life. Their stepmom, without any success, tries to lighten up the conversation.
Outside, Great checks his phone to see that it is 11 o’clock, to his astonishment. He sits down and lights a cig. Korn stops him and tells him to quit smoking. Great tries to explain to his brother how he can see the future. To no one’s surprise, Korn doesn’t seem to believe him but tells him to rest. Korn apologizes for he thinks he doesn’t have enough time to look over him. Great smiles and tells him he sounds like his dad.
Back to Tyme who has arrived at his home with his grandmother, the two share a simple dinner as he tends to her.
The next day, Great visits the woman with an arrangement of flowers. As he is about to leave, the woman starts speaking to him. She reminisces about her son and tells him not to worry as she will tell the police what really happened. He rushes out of the room and bumps into Tyme. However, he is, again, suddenly transported back four minutes before he comes inside the room of the woman.
Great gets flashes of him and Tyme together in bed as he speeds out of the hospital.
As the first episode ends, Doctor Den is seen talking to patients who are experiencing the same symptoms as Great.
