So, Peter managed to win himself an army by blowing his cover while fighting a robot beaver, but the other FOUR members of the team, through diligent detective-work and the use of inexplicable time-bending powers, have come up without so much as a sausage to fight the Thoremerson with, it would seem. Unfettered violence is SO always the best solution…

I think I’ve mentioned this before, but To Say Nothing of the Dog is a fine book to use as a guide when setting up some rules of time-travel.
The item that I am stealing for this episode is the idea that sometimes the timestream doesn’t let you get close to where you want to go.
Also, apropos of nothing, this magic trick is neat.

When we last left Abe, he was in the process of getting shot… again. Last time he went through this, he was aged decades in a matter of seconds, only being saved by a quick removal to the Stasis Year that had been set up by The Powers for Voltaire. But will there be any escape from the machine hand-crafted by the scientists of George III to destroy America? It could be the last of Lincoln – YOU couldn’t be there in 1865, but you CAN be there now, in our star-besotted 143rd episode of FREDERICK THE GREAT: A MOST LAMENTABLE COMEDY BREACHING SPACE AND TIME!!

Abraham Lincoln’s favorite animal was, in fact, the kitten. Not the cat, mind you, but the KITTEN. So, then, you can understand how truly difficult it must have been for him to be unplugged from a parade of Christmas kittens – far more difficult than for the average man who, while liking kittens just fine, holds his especial esteem reserved for the otter or mongoose or some other of nature’s creatures.
