Everybody knows that Poison's official reason for cancelling the "Flesh and Blood" tour and Returning home early in the Summer of '91 was 'cuz of the escalating issues with guitarist CC DeVille's cocaine addiction. What if that wasn't the REAL reason, but rather a very plausible excuse to cover up the Truth - which's stranger than fiction?

Bassist Rob "Bobby" Dall was always jokingly called the baby of the band, 'cuz he was the youngest of the musical quartet eventually known as Poison. No one expected to wake up one Morn in June of '91 and find a one-Year-old baby - who still possessed the mind of a twenty-seven-Year-old - in his bunk. If anything, they were expecting to wake and have yet another normal Day, as per tour standards, not have to figure out how to hide that they were lacking a crucial member from the public at large.

Knowing they can't continue the tour, but they can't just abandon Rob when he needs them most, the guys agree to do what they can to take care of him and try to figure out how to Return him to normal. Considering the rifts between them at this point, maybe that's the best thing they can do - or it's the worst, and they just don't realize it yet.

Born with a very rare spinal condition that affected the development of his legs and resulted in their amputation when he was just a baby, Rob "Bobby" Dall defied all odds pretty much from the moment he was born. His mother was told that she may as well not get very attached to him, 'cuz it wasn't likely that he'd live past a month old. When he proved his very first doctors wrong, they started discussing ways of making his Life better and easier as he aged. Nothing sounded like it'd work as well as amputating his useless, deformed legs, which'd at least allow him better mobility. It was certainly a barbaric solution, but it turned out to be the best decision that coulda been made, considering the lack of medical advancement in 1963. Left with really no other choices, Rob was determined to prove that he could do just about anything else those around him could. He might be shorter and unable to do things like run, but he wasn't about to let that stop him from achieving his ultimate Dream - to become a rock star. However, the road to stardom's never paved with precious Metals and rare gemstones, and it certainly isn't for him. Only through determination, struggle, and sheer grit does he manage to make it to the top and achieve what he set out to do before he was even legal to drink. But what happens when his band ultimately falls apart, and doesn't do much better after he gets a surprise and forms a bond with someone he never woulda expected to meet after moving out West?

Poison bassist Bobby Dall gets sick near the End of the "Look What the Cat Dragged In" tour in mid-1987. Such a thing's a common occurrence, so he doesn't think much of it as he pushes himself to finish out the tour so he can go home, rest, and recover. Upon waking up on his first Morn home, he doesn't find himself in Los Angeles - or even 1987. He finds himself in North Carolina and the Year 2016, as well as with a gorgeous young woman who's the walking epitome of "his type". He's also no longer sick - or part of Poison due to his sudden disappearance nearly 29 Years ago. Realizing he's somehow both teleported AND Time Traveled in his sleep, he hasta learn how to fit into this new Time period where he SHOULD be 52. Can the young woman apparently chosen as his teacher, Guide, and companion help him get back to when and where he belongs, though? It seems like a long shot, but Bobby knows there's only one way to find out.
