Summary
The crew of the Tulpar are only around 130 days into their long-haul shipment, but are interrupted by a distant SOS communication. Astronautical law stipulates that any and all distress signals that are received in deep space are responded to and assisted as long as the ship is in position to do, so Captain Curly adjusted the Tulpar’s course to see if they could do anything to help the stranded vessel.
They didn't expect this wrecked ship to look like a carbon copy of the Tulpar. They couldn't possibly have expected what they found on board.
Tensions rise as Curly desperately tries to understand the situation - how this possibly could have happened, what led up to the grisly events they saw the end results of, and whether or not the same fate is destined to befall them.Or: after Jimmy commits suicide, the ruined corpse of the Tulpar drifts through space before a one-in-infinity quirk of space-time pulls it through a wormhole and spits it out 7 months into the past, right into the path of its previous incarnation.
