LIFE IS STRANGE
It takes place during the week of 7 October 2013 told from the point of view of Maxine Caulfield (Hannah Telle),[14] a 12th grade student of the fictional Blackwell Academy in Arcadia Bay, Oregon.
The prologue begins with Max thrown into the vision of a lighthouse destroyed by a swelling tornado. She awakes instantly to find herself in the middle of class. To restore her composure, she proceeds to the restroom. There, Max witnesses the murder of a girl. In a single, sudden effort, she rewinds time and is moved back into the classroom from before. Informed of the following outcome, she hurries off to rescue the girl, using her recently developed ability. It is revealed that the person Max saved was her childhood friend Chloe Price (Ashly Burch).[15] The two reunite and then go for a walk to the same lighthouse she recognises from her nightmare. Shortly after, she is moved back into the nightmare. Max then reveals to Chloe her capacity to travel back in time. It is made known that what she thought was a dream is rather the reckoning of a future event, and the storm, an approaching disaster headed for the town.[16]
The following day, Max observes fellow student Kate Marsh (Dayeanne Hutton) being subjected to bullying for a viral video depicting her making out with several students at a party. It is suggested that she may have been drugged. Max eventually visits the diner where Chloe's mother Joyce (Cissy Jones) works as a waitress and meets Chloe there. They decide to experiment with Max's power at Chloe's secret hideout. However, this strains Max and results in her having a nosebleed and fainting. Once Max feels well again, Chloe ends up taking Max back to Blackwell Academy. During class, everyone is called out to the courtyard. Kate is up on the roof of the girls' dorm with the intention to jump. Max stops time unexpectedly and uses the ability in an attempt to reach Kate. At this point, she has the opportunity to convince Kate to get down from the roof and come with her. Ultimately, Max vows to uncover what happened to Kate and Chloe's missing friend Rachel Amber.[17]
Max and Chloe break into the principal's office that night to investigate. After they search through his files, Chloe insists on entering the pool for a swim. The police department—now alerted—comes to inspect the activity inside. They flee back to Chloe's place. The next morning, her stepfather David Madsen (Don McManus) returns home. A confrontation erupts between them. Max and Chloe depart for the diner to sneak into the RV of Frank Bowers (Daniel Bonjour), Rachel's friend. They learn that Rachel was having a romantic relationship with Frank and lied to Chloe about it. Chloe storms off feeling betrayed. Back at the dormitory, Max examines a childhood photo of her and Chloe. Without notice, she is transported to the day that picture was taken. Faced with the chance to save Chloe's father from dying in a car crash, she conceals the keys to his car, which inadvertently creates an alternative reality where Chloe has been committed to a wheelchair.[18]
