plays Jason Dessen, a science teacher who gets abducted by a version of himself from a parallel reality. This other Jason — call him Jason2 — is a billionaire mogul, but envious of Jason1’s simpler life as husband to Daniela and father to Charlie . Jason2 swaps places with Jason1, and as Jason1 attempts to find his way home, he has to explore one alternate timeline after another.
