In the year 2035, you graduate from law school at Emmett Brown Polytechnic University. The university’s “Department of Space-Time Inquiry” decides to send you back to the year 1935 in its newly-created time machine. Unfortunately, the machine malfunctions and you enter a cycle that has you bouncing from the year 1935 to the year 1965 to the year 1995. At each stop, you land in a public defender’s office. Your ability to return to your normal life in 2035 is dependent on your ability to successfully assist three indigent criminal defendants—one at each of your time travel stops. If you can accomplish this task, the cycle of time travel will be broken.
