Logan, Anthony, Nate, and Melody joined Taylor on a journey to steal back parts of the universe that keep reality as it is and keeps the universe expanding. They caught the thief, and now it's time to celebrate, to break out the chips and soda and lounge around the spaceship.
Too bad it's also time for the criminal to make his final stand.
An accident rocks the lives of all the crew members, and they all react differently. As each pieces their lives back together, reality starts to change, the universe starts to adapt, and perhaps collapse in on itself. Convinced they need to help, the crew pulls itself together, or mostly together. Despite everything, Taylor chooses to take a victory lap around the universe, accepting praise and forgetting everybody else.
With everything in shambles the rag-tag group starts to travel around and join the effort to discover what is wrong, why, and how to fix it. They go around the circuit, learning about issues, how this is effecting lives, fixing mistakes, and themselves. Perhaps it just takes a few new planets, new faces, new risks, and new challenges to make it all work again.
Perhaps.
