Maggie thinks the lady needs a visit with a psychiatrist, but just to prove her wrong she does the pocket watch thing. The premise is a little iffy and I'm not going to get into it too deep, but basically she'll take over the life of someone who otherwise would have died. Maggie Mitchell, weeping in a garden after watching the guy she's loved all her life marry someone else, tells her sad story to a friendly elderly lady who offers her the chance to escape into someone else's life in the distant past, through a magical pocket watch.
