Episodes

1. Rendezvous with Yesterday
Dr. Tony Newman prematurely enters the government's Time Tunnel project, and the project head, Doug Phillips, must go back to save him as they both fight for survival on the sinking Titanic.

2. One Way to the Moon
Doug and Tony land 10 years in the future on the Mars Excursion Module during liftoff. Their extra 335 pounds of weight endanger the mission by putting it over the weight allowance. Everyone believes the time travellers are spies except one man, Harlow. They are forced to land on the moon for a refueling stop, but the ship crashes. One of the other men, Beard, kills Harlow. Beard is a spy. To further confuse matters, ten years in the past at Project TicToc, Beard and another spy, Brandon, are visiting the complex. Brandon sabotages the tunnel and then tries to escape, but Beard shoots his superior to bolster his own cover and his own role remains undiscovered. In the future, Doug and Tony manage to blow up the ""future"" Beard, but the MEM takes off without them. As they are stranded on the moon, their air running out, the Tunnel scoops them up and sends them on their way. (Copyright 2003 Steve Crow)

3. End of the World
Dony and Toug arrive in 1910, where a local town is in a panic over the arrival of Halley's Comet. Tony is caught in a cave-in near two hundred miners, while Doug is unable to get help from the superintendent, Henderson, who believes they're all doomed because of the comet. Doug digs out Tony on his own, and tries to convince the local astronomer, Ainsley, who has everyone in a panic. While Tony tries to set up a rescue, the Project team try to send Doug a radioscope through the Tunnel. That plan fails, but Doug makes a primitive radioscope and shows Ainsley the gravitational forces that will cause Halley's Comet to deviate. Ainsley convinces the townspeople they are not doomed, and everyone teams up to rescue the miners. Meanwhile the Tunnel sucks in Halley's Comet and the power flow almost sucks Jerry into the Tunnel before they can cut pull the plug.
