Gene Rainey is a physicist experimenting on the Time Paradox, specifically carving out one infinitesimal space-time aggregate from all that surrounds it, or to the outside observer, freezing time.
Gene overhears his girlfriend, Denise, telling to a colleague that she is going to break up with him. Gene decides to "freeze time" while making love to her; effectively making that moment last for eternity.
Lubber Demons considered him the Golden Child, a messiah who will usher in the end of all human life. They alter his formula so that the bubble containing Gene and Denise would expand exponentially.
