Description:  On a hiking trip, Scoutmaster Dunn gets a head injury. Tucker, Rodney Carver, and, Dion hike out, until they meet a Ferrari, and use the guy's car-phone (!) to call the ranger station, and also "Brains" Bain at home (he didn't go on the trip, and in this story, Kai is mentioned as living in the future but they visit him often) to come with the time machine (They later theorize the Ferrari-driver is a drug dealer!). Baines arrives with the time machine, but it can't fit in the canyon where Dunn is. So they go to 1851 and get mountain man Jebediah Curtis to lead them to the canyon, with anti-gravity belts and night goggles. They get Dunn out, get Kai to get a healing suit from the future from his parents, take Jebediah back to his own time, put the healed Dunn back at the campsite, he doesn't remember the time machine or thinks it was a dream, problem solved! I point out for the record that, even though they have a time machine, a healing suit, anti-gravity belts, and night goggles, all technology from Kai's time, and the help of an 1851 mountain man, the technology that actually saves Mr. Dunn's life is a 1989 drug dealer's car phone!
