A deserted, wrecked Central Park Zoo was shown and there are screens with Blowhole's face on them. It looked like an apocylyptic wasteland Skipper was talking about a long time ago. A periscope came out of the hole of the pinguino habitat. In the pinguino HQ, Kowalski put the finishing touches on his new mobile Chronotron.
"Alright, it's complete," Kowalski said.
When Private heard that, he locked every entrance in the HQ so that Blowhole wouldn't hear. He was più frightened than usual.
"Are te sure this'll help save us?" Skipper asked while punching the bacheca from anger.
"I did some research, Skipper, and I believe all this will get them to trust us and help us. Besides, it'll buy enough for me to strengthen the fabric of the universe," Kowalski explained.
Rico grabbed a bag and the penguins were grouped together for the time travel.
Meanwhile, in a normal Central Park zoo, the penguins were relaxing and enjoying a good Saturday. Kowalski was working with some chemicals and a thought came to mind.
"Hey guys, remember when i detto that sometimes, te have to sposta backwards to go foreward?" Kowalski asked the others.
"Kowalski, i detto no unauthorized flashbacks," Skipper detto as he was continuing his ship in a bottle.
At a nearby bench, the penguins from the future appear and feel kinda relieved to see the zoo as seemingly safe.
"Danger only felt in the gut. I never realized how much i've missed it," future Skipper said, "are te set up, Kowalski?"
"I have it, Skipper," future Kowalski detto while pointing at the Stopwatch that he wore on his back.
Future Kowalski and future Rico placed their flippers on the Stopwatch as it was activated and time froze. Future Rico painted a red line on the ground and future Kowalski left a note for the present penguins.
Time became mobile again and future Kowalski ended up working on something on his clipboard. As that was happening, the future penguins were leaving some memory jogging clues around the zoo for the present penguins to follow with future Kowalski continuing to leave written clues.
At the pinguino habitat, Private came out from a swim and saw a note. He seemed concerned and called the others to see.
"What do te make of this, Kowalski?" Skipper asked while handing Kowalski the note.
While Kowalski was looking at the note, he responds, "Well, one thing that is strange about it is that i can read the note, so we won't need the chimps to translate".
Kowalski read the note: "you might not know who we are right now. for now, it's a good thing, but we're not your enemy. you'll find out più about this soon. here's the first way to lead to us: there's no decrease in intellect, so a circle's not a line. you're all on line duty, so don't stop till te reach the end".
The penguins seemed a bit confused.
"Line duty. Why does that sound familiar?" Skipper asked.
"Decrease in intellect. Well, that has happened around us twice before. Once with the degouser, but it doesn't mention hornets. So, there's possibly a chance that it's mentioning my accidental decrease in intellect," Kowalski pointed out.
"Oh yea, te wanted no trouble in retrieving fish, Skipper, Rico painted a cerchio on the ground and had Kowalski walk in a cerchio telling him to follow the line," Private mentioned.
"Could be. in this case, since no one's stupid, there's no cerchio painted on the ground. so we need to follow a red line," Skipper said.
Rico pointed to a red line painted under the bench leading to the well. They followed the line unaware that their journey will be filled with deja vu.
