Tucker Holmes wakes up to learn from Maggie Yen over the phone that his new girlfriend Haley Leone wants to celebrate the anniversary of the day they first met, but plans haven't been made yet. Wanting to impress Haley, Tucker uses the Wand of Kronos to stop time and allow him to gather items he'd need for the date. As Maggie used up the cash earned by T&M Productions Tucker stole money from a bank before proceeding to collect a new suit. After the new Tucker searched for jewelry, coming across a robbery being done by Carly Goodwin and Rhayne Weber. Tucker collected the robbers as well as a gift for Haley, returning home after picking up flowers as well, all the actions done while time was frozen. At home, Tucker unfroze time and fooled around with the unknown robbers as well as Regina Brennan, who had been harassing a street vendor. Hours later Maggie arrived back home only to be frozen as punishment for taking the money and, later on, Tucker went on his date with Haley, which turned out beautifully.
