Elliot is reborn to a time when Calder is still alive. In his previous life, he only learned after Calder's death that Calder had secretly loved him for years, leaving behind 3,500 photo albums filled with pictures of him. This time, Elliot refuses a Boston fellowship and insists on staying with wheelchair-bound Calder, who pushes him away with harsh words. Calder secretly hires someone to watch Elliot and stages a fake romance to drive him off, but Elliot sees through it every time and stays. Together they expose a medical scam and fight a corporate power grab; Elliot's rehabilitation device passes safety review. Calder finally stands for a few seconds with support, and they accept that the wheelchair is not a flaw, filling a new photo album with their "first year."
