Something or someone had reconstituted the way modern man views the world in terms of time, so that from whatever point we happen to inhabit we no longer have a chance to progress. We must stay where we are, at least in time. It was unclear how that might bear on our day-to-day existence and ability to succeed or fail, but it seemed the general concepts of matters such as adventure and pleasure would be limited.
Rock's first experience with this involved a baseball game between the St. Louis Cardinals and the Cincinnati Reds. He was apparently destined to know no more than the score after eight innings, so consequently to never know how the 3-3 tie was resolved.
