pLister makes a video explaining how the crew survived their battle with their future selves. If the future crew had killed their former selves, they would have eliminated their own existence, and therefore not have been able to destroy themselves: a temporal paradox. Therefore, time has reset to a point before the crew picked up the time drive. Lister#39;s explanation is too convoluted for the video camera to handle and it explodes. Kryten dismisses the whole incident as #34;garbled#34; and more #34;boring than an in-flight magazine produced by Air Belgium.#34;/ppbr/ppUnfortunately disaster has struck – Starbug is still damaged from the battle and as a consequence all the Indian food supplies have been destroyed; not even a single papadum survived. Lister proposes that the crew obtain the time drive again and go back in time to an Indian take-away and order 500 curries. Rimmer, Cat and Kryten are against the idea and oppose going back in time, having seen the kind of people they could possibly become. Lister argues that they can use a time drive and avoid that consequence if they don#39;t abuse it like their future selves did; however he finds himself outnumbered and seemingly concedes defeat./ppbr/ppThat night, Kryten shuts down so he can delete his unnecessary cache files to create more memory space. However, Lister swaps Kryten#39;s head for one of his spare heads and removes the guilt chip from it, having the now guiltless Kryten reassure the crew that it will be okay. The next morning, Rimmer and Cat are confused when Kryten serves them high-calorie breakfasts, starts smoking and using phrases like #34;you bet your ass#34;. However, when Kryten assures them it#39;ll be ok to pick up the time drive the two assent and board the ship containing it, intending to go back to the 21st Century to one of Lister#39;s favourite curry houses to pick up a large order./ppbr/ppTheir time travel calculations are a little off and they find themselves in Dallas, Texas on 22 November 1963. They appear at the Texas School Book Depository just as Lee Harvey Oswald is firing at U.S. President John F. Kennedy. Having inadvertently knocked him out the window onto the window ledge, they accidentally cause Oswald to fall to his death below when he tries to re-enter the Depository, thereby preventing Kennedy#39;s assassination. Confronted by the local police who believe that they are part of Oswald#39;s assassination attempt, the crew use the time travel device to go three years forward to 1966./ppbr/ppThe crew find Dallas deserted. Wandering the streets, they find a man who has been trampled to death, indicating people left in a hurry. Reading a nearby newspaper, Kryten finds out what has happened:/ppbr/ppPresident Kennedy was impeached in 1964 for sharing a mistress with Mafia boss, Sam Giancana. It was the biggest scandal in American history. Kennedy was sentenced to three years in an open prison in July, #39;65. J. Edgar Hoover became president; he was forced to run by the mob, who had pictures of him at a transvestite orgy...Soon after his election, the USSR were allowed to install a nuclear base in Cuba in return for Mafia cocaine trafficking between Cuba and the States. With a Soviet nuclear base 30 miles from the US mainland, people fled from all the major cities./ppbr/ppAs the Soviets likely won the Space Race in this alternate timeline, #34;Starbug#34; no longer exists and the crew can not return to the present. The crew attempt to correct the situation by returning to the day of the shooting and driving Oswald to a higher floor in the building, but this plan still fails to lead to Kennedy#39;s death; by sending Oswald up another floor, they made the shot#39;s trajectory so steep that Kennedy was merely wounded. Being unable to send Oswald to a lower floor due to their presence, Lister suggests getting a second gunman to shoot from behind a nearby grassy knoll. With none of the crew willing to shoot the President themselves, Lister travels to Idlewild Airport in 1965 and persuades a post-impeachment Kennedy to travel back to 1963, become a #34;second gunman#34; on the grassy knoll, and shoot himself to restore his place in history. The plan works: Kennedy shoots his past self and the timeline is restored. Kennedy grimly thanks the gang for the chance to restore himself to his proper place in history, and fades away as a result of the resetting timeline. Lister, too late, realises he forgot to ask Kennedy for the names of any good Indian take-aways in Dallas. Having seen that Lister has learned absolutely nothing from the experience, the other members of the crew give him a well deserved beating for all he has put them through./pbr/br/Support this podcast at — a rel='payment' href='https://redcircle.com/ghostman-radio-station/exclusive-content'https://redcircle.com/ghostman-radio-station/exclusive-content/abr/br/Advertising Inquiries: a href='https://redcircle.com/brands'https://redcircle.com/brands/abr/br/Privacy Opt-Out: a href='https://redcircle.com/privacy'https://redcircle.com/privacy/a
