On April 14, 1961, Peter Corrigan passes out during a discussion of time travel with his friends at a socialite club. He awakens on April 14, 1865, the day of Abraham Lincoln's assassination. He rushes to Ford's Theatre to warn everyone, but he is arrested. After being kept in the police station for a day, Peter realizes he was too late, and unable to change the past. He returns to the present; there, he finds that one of the men of the club, previously a waiter, is now a rich member. Upon inquiry, the man says that he inherited the wealth from his great-grandfather, who was the only person to believe Peter, and made a name for himself trying to stop the assassination.
