Christopher has big dreams—from avoiding school to inventing the first airmobile—but the dull requirements of his daily life keep him from getting anywhere. When a neighboring inventor creates a "time remote," Christopher gets the unexpected chance to make his dreams come true. He uses the time remote to skip past homework, classes, boring parental lectures, and all his other problems. Christopher coasts through life having fun with his friends and pursuing what he really wants to do.
Christopher enters the workforce, and when problems are encountered he uses the remote. The time remote sends him through a life of trying to avoid troubles, right into old age. Christopher finally realizes the misery of an easy life. Discovering a hidden button on his discarded remote, it revolutionizes him.
