His name is Michael. He's attract ive, sweet, and, according to him, her friends, and the pictures on her wa lls, he's Lauren's husband. Just as Lauren is trying to figure o ut how she could be married to someone she can't remember meeting, Mi chael climbs up into the attic to change a lightbulb and abruptly disappea rs. In his place, a new man climbs down, and a new, slightly altered life reforms around her. Lauren quickly realizes that her attic can somehow, in credibly, supply her with endless iterations of lives and partners. Cyclin g through marriages, sometimes lasting weeks, sometimes less than five min utes, Lauren grapples with her fate.
