OTTO: INFO:
Hey! My computers say we're orbiting Earth! In fact, we're over Washington, D.C.!
It's Earth! We're home!
MAGELLAN: Zip, prepare the "Zoom Beam" transporter. Let's surprise Penny, our faithful ground control at the Space Center in Washington, and beam her up to the ship!
POLO: ZIP:
OTTO: ZIP:
Boy is she going to be excited to see us! Zoom Beam ready!
Very well, Zip. Zap the Zoom Beam!
Zip zapping! SFX 2: "Zoom Beam"
(Zip goes through the motion of beaming someone aboard. Lights flicker and the Zoom Beam door opens. Out walks Abraham Lincoln, stove-pipe hat, beard and all.)
(the Crew gasps)
MAGELLAN: Oh no. OTTO:
Uh, that's not Penny.
SPARKY: But … isn't that the guy on the penny? ZIP:
INFO: LINCOLN: How far? Four score and seven years …
MAGELLAN: More like 200 years! Zip! Beam Mr. Lincoln back to Earth … and fast! Apparently going faster than the speed of light wasn't a good thing. Now we're time travelers. But I'll get you home, Crew.
We went too fast! We warped time! We went backwards in time!
