hmm, I looked up do over and got a link to a very odd tv series where a man is reverted to his teenage self, like seventeen again. From there, I guessed it was a character’s name fom that series that coincided with a character from this series. I also had a suspicion that it had to do with Tim, Sarah’s so called boyfriend.
I really have to work on my riddle solving skills…

Kendra, it means a bit more than that, but that’s the simple version.
