→ The slate

Layabout Rowan is cursed to repeat the same disastrous day after offending a pawnshop owner while buying a birthday gift for his crush. Trapped in a time loop centred around the speed-dating event he reluctantly hosts, Rowan discovers the only way out is to successfully match the fated soulmates in attendance - forcing him to confront their problems, his own shortcomings, and finally put some effort into something other than avoiding responsibility.
