Mr. Mercat and I, trapped in a Super8 Motel in Mound City MO, watched an original Star Trek episode where Kirk, Spock and McCoy are flung back in time to 1930. They know that McCoy did something to disrupt the space time continuum. After a series of classic adventures, Spock builds a computer and a TV and they realize that the girl Kirk has fallen in love with has to die and that McCoy saves her in one time line. In the alternate time line she becomes a peace advocate and delays the entry of the US into WWII and Germany gets the bomb and wins the war. Weird comparisons to today.

And all Kirk really had to do was talk Edith Keeler into becoming a war hawk.
