Plot Synopsis
The search is on and and only time stands in the way.
Plot Summary
Captain Smith and Lieutenant Jasper return to the ship to report Belinda's disappearance and the blood stains they found. TAG informs them of the presence of a massive amount of tachyons around the location where Belinda disappeared and they realize that she is likely lost somewhere in time. Lt. Pascal laments that now she doesn't know what's going to happen since Marty is back on the ship.
They decide to go after Belinda, but with no idea where she might be they enlist the help of time travels who could help them. Marty called Rufus, who loaned his phone booth to Johnny, Robin, and Skip, Captain Smith called The Doctor, who would take Shauna, Bob, and Marty with him in the TARDIS?, and Dr. Notio built a time machine of his own. Lt. Pascal settles in to wait for their quick return, which does not happen.
Theorizing that one could time travel whenever he wanted to Dr. Notio stepped into the Quantum Leapfrog Accelerator and vanished. He awoke to find himself trapped in the past, facing mirror images that were not his own, driven by an unknown force to find Belinda Reines. His only guide on this journey is Mark a disgruntled graduate student who appears in the form of a hologram that only Mal can see and hear. And so Dr. Notio finds himself leaping form life to life, striving to put right what once went wrong and each leap hoping to find his friend. Mal eventually finds himself in the body of Captain Jake Atherton, the first Alliance Captain who looks suspiciously like him. After much searching Mal returns back to the ship to try something else, having had no success with the Quantum Leapfrog Accelerator.
Meanwhile Johnny, Skip, and Robin end up on Amestris at a time when the Stargates were used as a main form of transportation. After showing a strage sense of responsibility Johnny jumps back in the time machine and goes to visit his younger self and give him a warning, consequently altering time as he was wearing a different uniform the first time he went back.
After Johnny's return they begin the search for Belinda again and they bump into Alphonse and Edward Elbrick. While Edward is trying to clap his hands to show off his magic they guys slip away and Johnny mentions meeting a man with great ideas.
On the TARDIS they set coordinates to find Belinda and Shauna shows off her knowledge to the Doctor who takes an instant liking to her.
