The story is mostly about Bull Benton, his former friend Professor Thurlow Benjamin, and the woman they both have feelings for, Vee Milston. Vee was first going to marry Bull, but she marries Benji instead. Years later, after a lot of competition, Benji makes a time machine and uses it to change things, which leads to problems no one saw coming. As Bull and Benji deal with what happened in the past and the results of what they wanted, Bull comes up with a surprise for Benji that is both a way to get even and a strange turn in their connected lives, all told with a mix of funny moments and surprising twists.
