How do you break up with someone whom
you have shared many lives with? That is the question
Helen faces when she is reincarnated in this life 10
years before her husband Lee. In those 10 years, she
re-evaluates her life and is tired of their tragic
love story. She wants a normal existence with the man
she married in this life. Just as she has learned to
live without Lee, he returns as a 16 year emancipated
minor with a chip on his shoulder and a fierce
determination to reclaim her as his wife.
Lee is passionate about life and especially about
Helen. In their last life, they were supposed to die
together in a car crash but he spent 10 years in a
coma before they stopped life support. Now, he's a
young man with years of memories but can't find Helen
so he hires Vicki to locate her. Henry bonds with Lee
and he sympathizes with this quest for eternal love.
Vicky tracks down Helen but she pretends not to know
Lee. She is pregnant with her current husband's baby
and doesn't want to repeat the past with Lee. However,
her reluctance and their age difference doesn't bother
Lee as he remembers decades of lives with her.
His teenage hormones and stubbornness to not give up a
future with Helen drives him to extreme measures. He
kidnaps Helen because he wants a fresh start with her
by ending their lives to be reincarnated at the same
time in the next life. He thinks this will solve
everything.
Vicki and Henry arrive at the scene and they make him
realize that if he kills Helen, he will lose her
forever because she will remember that he killed her
and her baby, which he didn't know about. Helen
convinces Lee that she wants a fresh start, without
him.
Lee can't kill her and turns himself in to the police
for assaulting Helen's husband. The episode ends with
a conversation between Mike and Lee about love. There
are clear overtones about his relationship with Vicki.
The theme of this episode is love and whether or not
it can last. This is significant for Henry because he
can live forever but can have a relationship with a
mortal woman? It's significant for Mike because he's
loved and lost Vicki but can they have a future?
Mostly, it's important to Vicki as she is struggling
with her feelings for both men.
