Crash 2007: The Reboot — Episode 2

Jack died alone in 2042, realizing too late that the calls from his wife and daughter thirty years ago were a regret he could never fix. When he opens his eyes again, he is back in 2007—drinking, gambling, hitting his wife—while Kate is packing to leave with their daughter Amy. This time, he kneels and begs for one chance. He pays off his gambling debts, quits drinking, starts by unloading freight at a supermarket, and saves his first money flipping secondhand goods. He opens Miller’s Bargain Depot, grows it from an old drugstore into three chain stores, then builds a furniture restoration business. His rival Barry hoards stock, cuts off supply, and frames him with expired goods; his relative Dennis turns on him after being refused a loan. Each time, Jack holds the line. Before the financial crisis, he rents a small workshop to make furniture himself, but the night before delivery, someone sets it on fire, injuring a female carpenter. Jack never misses another call. He helps Amy repair her broken little house, and finally hears Kate say, “Today, I trust you.” From a bastard dragged down by gambling debts and alcohol to the owner of three stores and a factory, he spends eighteen years bringing back the family he lost in his previous life.
