Synopsis

With a wrist-mounted time travel device, a 150 year old Buzz (which would make him from about 110 years in the future...see "Lone Wolf"...) travels back to "now" to prevent Mira from being killed. Unfortunately, it happened so long ago that he can't quite recall just how, when or where Mira is going to die (...and, it would seem, time travel turns one's memory to "Swiss Cheese").

Production notes

According to episode writer Leslie Nordman:

Emperor Zurg was not in this episode. They specifically instructed me to write a "Zurg-free" episode, for two reasons. First, because they felt too many episodes already referred to him and second, because including Zurg (and the concommitant pullout of the Tangeans from the Alliance, the resulting collapse of the Alliance, Zurg's galactic conquest, the destruction of the Alliance and of Star Command (and the deaths of all the main characters save Buzz) would make the episode "too serious."
