A topologist manages to create a time-smeared tesseract whose interior moves extremely slowly through time (from our perspecctive) while the exterior moves at the normal pace. He uses the tesseract to demonstrate how living animals with seemingly mortal wounds can recover when trapped inside the tesseract and then snapped out. The mathematician falls in love with a young student and gives up his day job at the university to become part of a travelling circus, entertaining people by stabbing his girlfriend in the tesseract with a short sword and having her recover miraculously when released from the contraption. Over time, he tires of the girlfriend.
