When he gets sucked into an alternate reality where his mother has married his mentor and his Atlantean god best friend has become a human geek, he begins to understand that no life is free of pain, and that every person has a specific place in the universe.

She alone bothered to take me out of the bedroom and onto the world. She taught me to love again.
