Frederick is heading back home after some harrowing adventures in the Distant Future… with a puppy! But what does he return to? Last we saw, Voltaire’s house was destroyed, Peter the Great was sulking, and Delaflote had made an Interesting Discovery. Frederick has some explaining to do back at Maison Voltaire, and meanwhile events in 1871 push grimly on! Is it the beginning of the end for Ireland in Episode 205: While You Were Uppercutting?

Oh, Poland. It’s pretty clear that Frederick had always entertained the notion of carving up a bit of it to make the crazy dalmatian-like pattern of the Hohenzollern territories a little more contiguous. And, to be fair, when the first partition of Poland came around, Frederick took the smallest chunk while Catherine and Joseph II (Maria Theresa okayed it, but it was really Joseph’s bag) swooped down and gobbled while the gobbling was good. Most likely, that was to spite England, who he was pissed off at again… which happened not infrequently…

Like the great bard of the 20th century said, “Back away from the Future, Don’t Tell God Your Plans.” It’s Frederick’s last episode in the distant future, and it appears that the fop is clawing his way forward from the bosom of the general once again. Plus… SPACE PUPPY!!
