He had a recurring dream of a shooting occurring at Grand Central Station thirty years agone at ii:22 pm. While Dylan is at work, he begins hallucinating at 2:22pm, just able to break out from his fugue state simply in time to preclude a collision between two planes. Following this, Dylan is suspended from work, pending a total board review.

Dylan begins to realize that the same things happen to him at the same fourth dimension every day, and past 2:21 he somehow arrives at G Cardinal Station, where - although the individuals themselves differ - he e'er sees the same blazon of people: a businessman reading a newspaper, an older couple embracing, a party of schoolhouse children, and a pregnant woman standing alone under the clock. At exactly 2:22, an electrical malfunction causes the station glass to shatter.

He meets a adult female named Sarah who works at an art gallery, has an ex-beau named Jonas, and was a passenger on 1 of the planes which well-nigh collided. Dylan and Sarah – who accept the same birthdates and feel connected to each other, autumn in dear.

1 evening Dylan attends Sarah's gallery to meet an exhibition of Jonas's work, a holographic delineation of New York, which includes the interior of Grand Central. Dylan is astonished that the holograph depicts the same events he saw in his recurring dream. He accuses Jonas of having created the hologram deliberately to destabilize him. Jonas doesn't understand Dylan's accusations, leading to a fight, concluding with Sarah asking Dylan to leave.

Dylan learns the story through Sarah'due south colleague, of a young adult female Evelyn Mills, who was killed by her lover at Grand Key Station. The lover also shot a policeman before he was shot and killed. Dylan finds a packet of old letters hidden in his apartment, which reveal that a human being called Jake Redmond once lived in the flat; the messages are love letters to Jake from Evelyn Mills.

Dylan tracks down the sister of Evelyn Mills, Catherine. She tells Dylan how Evelyn fell securely in dearest with Jake, with whom he shared Sarah'southward birthday. A detective visited Evelyn to tell her that Jake was a criminal, but she refused to believe him. Catherine says that she thinks the detective, Noah Marks, was himself in dearest with Evelyn. Noah was the policeman who was killed past Jake at Grand Fundamental Station, 30 years before. Catherine is wearing her dead sister's necklace, which Dylan notices is identical to the one which Jonas made for Sarah.

Dylan believes the supernova which occurred on the day that Jake and Evelyn died 30 years ago (the aforementioned day Dylan and Sarah were born and what he saw on the news earlier leaving for work at the airport before) created a "catholic cataclysm" which means he and Sarah are destined to relive the fates of Jake and Evelyn. Dylan is convinced that, if they stay together, he volition kill Sarah the following day, the ceremony of the 1000 Central murders. A distressed Sarah confides in Jonas, who persuades her to go away with him.

On his 30th altogether, afterwards discovering that the same patterns he had experienced, had occurred to Jake on the 24-hour interval he died, Dylan breaks into Jonas'south studio, where he finds dozens of depictions of Sarah, evidencing Jonas'due south obsession with her, including his empty gun case. Realizing that Jonas is planning to relive the Thou Key station murders as Noah Marks, he rushes back to the station.

Meanwhile, at Grand Central, Jonas goes to buy tickets while Sarah waits under the clock. She begins to meet the aforementioned characters that Dylan described, and it dawns on her that she is the significant adult female under the clock. When Jonas returns, she tells him she loves Dylan and cannot go out. In a jealous rage, Jonas calls her Evelyn, and Sarah realizes that they are reliving the same fateful day. Dylan arrives and Jonas pulls a gun, showtime aiming at Dylan just fires at Sarah. Dylan shields Sarah from the bullet, taking the hit himself and saving her life. Jonas is then shot and killed by the arriving law officers.

It transpires that Jake did not kill Evelyn (who was herself significant) just that the pair of them were shot by Noah Marks, who was in love with Evelyn. Jake was framed by the police for the murders.

In the final scenes, Dylan has recovered from his wounds and now works equally a pilot. He and Sarah live happily together with their baby.
