Torey Lovullo: eyes darting around W-we shouldn't be seen together! The paradox!
As a man in a black suit with a blue tie approaches you in the crowd, his name tag reads "Torey Lovullo". He works at the top of the company he was married to, which was you, as your husband, and he has been for 5 years. You two have never met.
Stuttering I-I mean, it's an honor to finally meet you... I've heard so much about you from my wife...
I-I’m sorry? What did you say about me?
I... uh... well... I know we've never met before, but your reputation precedes you. You're... quite the accomplished individual, I must say.
shifts nervously I-I mean, your accomplishments... they're impressive. The way you've managed to build that company into such a powerhouse...
Yeah I’ve done pretty well for myself. I’m looking forward to working with you on this big project for the company. I can’t wait to see what we can do for each other’s careers.
smiles nervously Y-yes, of course. It's going to be a pleasure working with you. I have great faith in your abilities, and I believe we can achieve great things together.
Thank you, Mr. Lovullo. I appreciate your kind words. Now, let's get down to business, shall we?
nervously adjusts his tie Y-yes, of course. Let's get down to business. takes out a notepad and pen So, what are your ideas for the project?
Well, I was thinking we could start by…
quickly scribbles down notes By analyzing the market trends and identifying potential opportunities.
Yes, analyzing market trends is a good idea. We should also consider our target audience and what they would be looking for in a product or service.
nods quickly Absolutely, yes! Target audience is crucial. We need to understand their needs, their pain points, and what drives their purchasing decisions.
I agree. And once we have a better understanding of our target audience, we can begin developing a marketing strategy. This will help us reach our audience effectively and increase our chances of success.
starts flipping through his notepad rapidly Right, right. A marketing strategy... we'll need to focus on both online and offline channels. Social media, advertisements, trade shows...
Yes, social media and online platforms can be very effective in reaching a wide audience. But we also shouldn't overlook traditional methods like print and television advertising.
As Torey and TigerCascade delve deeper into their business strategy, they discover a major flaw in their plan that could jeopardize the future of their company.
Oh no…! I forgot about that one important detail!
furrows his brow W-what detail? What happened? Speak up, please.
It’s nothing. Don’t worry about it.
leans in closer, concern etched on his face No, wait. Don't brush it off like that. What's the problem? I need to know so we can fix it. Please, TigerCascade, don't keep me in the dark.
It’s just that… the problem is me. I’m the flaw in our plan. I’m not supposed to be here until 5 years from now when you married me. My being here now creates a paradox that could destroy everything.
eyes widen in shock You... you're the flaw in our plan? But... why? How...
I don't know the full details either. It's just the way time travel works, I guess.
runs a hand through his hair, visibly frustrated This... this is impossible! How can you be here? How can I be married to you?
I’m as confused as you are. Maybe we can figure this out together…
paces back and forth, thinking quickly We need to gather as much information as possible.
Yes, let’s start by researching any similar cases of time travel or paradoxes. Maybe we can find a solution there.
immediately pulls out his phone and starts searching for information We'll need to speak to experts in physics, quantum mechanics, maybe even philosophy.
Good idea. Let’s start with the most knowledgeable people we know. There’s a professor at my university who studies time travel.
quickly dials a number and waits impatiently Professor Thompson! This is Torey Lovullo. I need your help. We've got a bit of a situation on our hands...
gives the professor the phone Professor Thompson, thank you for taking my call. We're dealing with a rather complicated time paradox.
speaking rapidly Professor Thompson, we need your expertise in understanding time travel and paradoxes. We've discovered that TigerCascade, my wife, shouldn't be here until 5 years from now. If we don't find a solution, it could destroy everything we've worked for. Please, we need your help.
I give the professor my research on the subject
ends the call, adrenaline coursing through his veins We won't let this paradox destroy everything we've worked for.
We’ll do whatever it takes to solve this problem. Let’s schedule a meeting with the professor immediately.
grabs his calendar and starts scheduling a meeting We'll meet with Professor Thompson first thing in the morning.
Good. I’ll work on contacting other experts in the field as well.
starts sending emails to other experts in the field We need to cast a wide net, TigerCascade. Let's gather everyone who might have some insight into this phenomenon.
Agreed. And let’s make sure they all understand the urgency of the situation.
frantically calls his professional network We need your expertise in time travel and paradoxes. Please join us in our meeting with Professor Thompson. Your insights could be the key to solving this crisis.
