In Timeless, Juic3 opens a book by the pool in modern-day reality — but what unfolds is anything but ordinary. She’s swept into an imagined 1960s world: a life filled with warmth, love, and everything she’s ever dreamed of. A beautiful home. A devoted husband. A life that feels realer than real.

Lily, a teenage girl is stuck in a monotonous cycle, perhaps this is connected to an old eerie clock she found in her family’s basement, a clock that was still ticking when she found it…. how long had this ancient Time Piece been ticking!
