Cass (Gabrielle Dennis) and Dusty (Chris O’Dowd) were leading a blissfully married life with their daughter, until Morpho Machine molded their life potential.
It was like yesterday when Dusty considered Cass his eyes, ears, and right hand, but he knew he would have to cut off part of it if she overindulged him.
And he did it. The duo Cass and Dusty decided to follow the Morpho Machine prophecy and walk a different path for six months.
Also, Dusty longed to know if his relationship with Cass was right for him because he’d spent so much time with her that he couldn’t imagine life without her.
Unlike people who quickly move from one relationship to another, Dusty’s only known Cass.
So, he hoped their relationship would be solid, but he was also unsure what would happen.
In Cass’s case, she took some time off for self-exploration, where she realized that she was the main lead rather than just a side character in someone else’s story.
Additionally, she formed a close-knit relationship with Hana, who had never used the Machine like anyone from the town.
Back at the Hubbard residence, Hana revealed her past, explaining why she shunned relationships.
Sent to boarding school as a child, she felt abandoned and grew to resent everyone.
Despite Nat and Cass’s desire to hug her, she refused. Instead, Hana asked about their histories, sparking a beautiful bonding moment.
Cass Is Startled To Know Dusty Set Up His Date Quite Quickly
During their break-up, they agreed to see other people.
So Dusty goes out to dinner with a colleague named Alice. The night starts awkwardly but ends sweetly with a prolonged hug.
He hadn’t opened up to anyone emotionally other than Cass, so it’s unsettling for him to bond over readily.
Afterward, Cass visited Dusty in his basement room, his “man pad,” where they finally discussed his date.
Cass explained to Dusty that the hug wasn’t the problem; instead, she was taken aback by how quickly he went on a date after they decided to take a break.
Especially considering Dusty’s usual lack of spontaneity, the fact that he took 10 days to play the theremin made her feel like he had been planning this for a while and maybe had feelings for this girl all along.
The review team of Peace To Road Films believes Cass’s perspective sheds light on her feelings of hurt and betrayal, as she interprets Dusty’s actions as potentially an underlying feeling for his colleague, Alice.
