A copper refinery owned by Thor Carlsson operates trains that pass by a young boy's home—one who watches them daily from beside the tracks. Decades later, in 1987, Thor's daughter Dorothy, a student at the University of Pennsylvania and heiress to the Carlsson fortune, doodles images of her wedding during a class.
