[edit] Plot Summary

Annie Lockwood is going on a school field trip to New York City, NY. This is about one year after she returned to her present time (1996?). While in New York, she slips back one hundred years into the past, only to discover her one true love, Strat, was put into an insane asylum. He was put there because he insisted Annie was real, even though she mysteriously disappeared and everyone else decided to forget her existence. This bit of knowledge was told to Annie by Strat's younger sister, Devonny, who is vacationing in New York.

Annie decides to break Strat out of the asylum, and prove to 1896 that she is a real, live person and that Strat is completely sane. She manages to break her love out of the asylum, but then is whisked back to her proper time soon afterwards...
