Hindsight: Square One

Sound Turned Off

The show opens with a man and a woman having an argument as she chases him outside of a restaurant. She seems to be telling him how he doesn’t understand how she wants to pursue her dreams but she also wants to work on their relationship. In response, he asks for his engagement ring back. Her friend then begins to comfort her because she seems upset about the break up. The main character then sees herself in the mirror as a young woman representing that she is now young and free.

Her and her friend are now finding videos so that she can cheer up and get over the episode of what happened with her boyfriend. During movie night they seem to be having a good time laughing and talking about the good fun times and decide to prank call like their teenagers again but then change their minds. The women continue to have a conversation about their life mistakes and things that they would have done differently.

The main character then wakes up the next morning confused in disbelief and wondering if the break up actually happened. Her friend fills her in on everything and gets cheerful about a decision they both made the previous night. While getting ready for work she picks up a Walkman and beeper so I’m guessing that this show is based on the 90s. While in the building at work she then begins having flashbacks of herself fainting in an elevator. While at work everyone is looking at her as if they found out about her break up. A colleague approaches her and discusses the situation when is then approached by her boss and offered a higher position seeming to be very excited. While in her new office a lady walks in looking confused  and tells her she is to be seen by the boss about being promoted and instead is then fired.

In the opening scene the man and woman are actually arguing at the fact that she decided not to get married at their actual wedding. She doesn’t think that they will make it as a couple so he asks for his ring back. She then turns to her friend and says, “This is the worst thing that has ever happened.” they both reply by joking and laughing. The main character is actually back in time that’s why she is in the mirror looking younger. While watching movies with her best friend she is actually telling her about the future. Her friend is so amazed at the fact that you are able to watch movies on a cell phone in the future. This is the reason why they were looking at the phone because her friend doesn’t understand how you could watch movies on such a small screen so the main character informs her about the screens on the Iphone.

She states that she actually misses the future and not her fiancé. She wakes up the next morning wondering what year it is wondering if she is back in the current time on still in the past. As she is preparing for a promotion at work she looks at the pager and Walkman speaking about how she misses the future because of all the things that she has to carry instead of one electronic doing everything. While in the building where she works as she passes the elevators it reminds her of what happened before she was sent to the past.

The office has found out what happened in her relationship while speaking to a colleague about it she is approached by her boss and told that she has been promoted to Vice President. As she is settling in and excited she is told that she is in someone else’s office by the person who’s office it actually is. When speaking with her boss he teases her about him actually promoting her. She is then told to go get coffee so that she knows that she is still nothing but a secretary.

            If this had been a show that I was familiar with I think that I would have been more accurate, especially about the traveling in time. For the most part, I was precise with what was happening except for a few misinterpretations
