Having discovered that Reg is still alive and in a nursing home, Gary visits but Reg fails to recognize him. The meeting puts him in mind of how in 1944 he provided biscuits for Margie's birthday party at the Royal Oak, where Noel Coward came to entertain. Of course, as ever, this clashes with a present day engagement. Yvonne has written a successful autobiography and wants Gary by her side for the signings. When the porter at Gary's flat block tells him that, in 1944, the occupant of number 15 was run over by a bus, Gary goes back to warn him only to find that the porter got it wrong - the victim was Mr. Foster from number 16. However Gary juggles the two engagements successfully and back in the present Yvonne, who had earlier caught Ron giving Gary a fraternal hug which they had explained as being a lecture on wrestling, decides she would like to wrestle with her husband.

Seth is interested to see the catalog-ordered Verona XG-20 remote he just got appears to be universal -- and controls time as well. Based on the stories of R. L. Stine.
Seth is interested to see the catalog-ordered Verona XG-20 remote he just got appears to be universal - it works on the stereo as well as the TV. But he's even more amazed when, turning it on "PAUSE" on his younger sister Jamie as a joke really does stop her tap-dancing! He's then informed by the still-playing tape that came with the remote by Tony Huband that "It's not a toy!" Eager to see what else it can do, he continues testing it: changing the color of his fish, rewinding/fast-forwarding passerby, hitting channel change so the school bully transforms into something more benign. But soon he goes on to bigger things, like pausing his teacher to cheat on tests, or his family when they want him to give the remote to Janie, despite his best friend's opposition. After all, none of Tony's phone-recorded warnings mean anything. Right?
