That Was Then

Travis Glass is a door salesman who lives with his mother, while the woman he really wants to be living with is married to his older brother. Travis needs a makeover—and he gets one when a lightning bolt and the Kinks' ""Do It Again"" combine to send him back 14 years to high school. Now he does have a chance to do it again. Trouble is, his actions produce consequences that will keep him hopping back and forth in time.

Back in the present, Travis is mayor of Jasper. He's also married to Lanie, and that makes his ex-best friend Pinkus (who has a crush on Lanie) his abiding foe. So he must return to 1988 to unhitch himself. And while there, he must also get Claudia to stop hating Greg. If he doesn't, his nephew Ethan won't be born. Then there's the matter of the $5000 Travis stole from his bookie father, Double G. And Timmy, whose life he just saved, is demanding that his wrecked truck be replaced.
