After receiving a warm homecoming from his parents, Cyrus and Katya told their story. Cheryl went from joy to tears to anger and back again throughout the whole regaling. Their tale began with the original jump to 1946 and the strange feeling they got as they vanished in time to 1871.

"Well, if she knew so much, why didn't she just say my name?" asked Dawn.
