Plot Setup
With the players' help, Prof. Chronus has repaired and re-calibrated the time machine, and thus can lock in on Doctor When--both to view him through the View-O-Scope and to send him somewhere else by projecting a "return time wormhole portal archway."
Props
Short silent movie of Doctor When pantomiming his desired new destination. But the movie is chopped up into 15 pieces that the players need to put back into the right order. Need Javascript application--Sean working on it.
Plot Point to Convey
- The View-O-Scope can be focused into sort of a "live feed."
- The "portable tachyon detector" lets the traveler know when the View-O-Scope is focused on him/her.
- The Doctor doesn't want to be returned to 2012 quite yet...he wants to go to his high school science fair first.
- The Doctor is in some danger from the Big Bang.
- The Big Bang also causes signal interference.
Short Description
Garbled silent video message from Doctor When instructing where to send him.
Detailed Description
How To Give To Teams
Lab Assistant at site tells team (script, p. 15),
- Welcome! From this location you can tune in to live feed from the Temporal View-O-Scope. Just use the program that the Long Now mechanics gave you and enter access code XXXX. Call the Institute on speakerphone when you're done.
After they see the video, the Lab Assistant tells them (script, p. 15),
- I saw the remote feed, too. We have to help Doctor When fix the timeline! You need to decode his final message. Then call Prof. Chronos on your speakerphone.
Puzzle Answer
The time, date, and possibly location of an hour or two before the "Science Fair Incident". (Any time/date format is probably okay.) 1986 1:00pm ... have we picked an exact day yet?

Response to Correct Answer
The team calls in to the Institute:
- PROF. CHRONOS (O.C.)
- Hello again. Are you on a speakerphone...can your whole group hear?
- VISITOR 1
- Yes, we are. You're not going to believe this, but he wants us to send him to Paine Memorial High School on May 31, 1986 at 2 PM.
- PROF. CHRONOS (O.C.)
- I just can't imagine what he would want back there. I guess it has something to do with fixing the timeline. But what an odd date--that was the date of our high school science fair.
IF GOING TO NEXT MANDATORY (RETRIEVE THE LETTER)
- PROF. CHRONOS (O.C., CONT'D.)
- All right...the machine has opened a portal for him just before we lost contact and is sending him back to school!
- Enter code YYYY in the View-O-Scope remote access program and then we can see if it worked. I'll hang up now and watch myself. When you're done speak with the lab assistant at your location.
Then the team views the next video. After figuring out where the Doctor lost the envelope, they speak to the local lab assistant:
- VISITOR 1
- We think it somehow fell out of his pocket at Ft. Point in San Francisco.
- LAB ASSISTANT
- Yes! We've noticed some tachyon disturbance in that area at coordinates ___________. Let's hope that by some miracle it's still there.
- If you find it, give it to one of the other lab assistants at that location to rush back to Prof. Chronos. Now go!
IF GOING TO AN OPTIONAL PUZZLE
To Do
- Sean to determine final message & pantomime encoding.
- Filming on 1/8/12.
- Christian to get footage to Sean.
- Sean to create Javascript & to edit appropriately.
- Sean to get bundle to Dan for inclusion in disk.
Other Notes
Prof. Chronos notes the time/date and says something like "That's odd, that's when we were both in high school. Wonder what he's up to. Oh well!" ... and pushes the button to send Doctor When there.
