They decide to follow Renslayer but now to Chicago in 1893, 25 years later. Loki and Mobius are puzzled. They go to the Worlds Fair site. They hear a newsboy mention a ghost clock.

Mobius spots her standing for the show. On stage Victor Timely begins his show. He is a He Who Must Remain variant, who demonstrates a temporal machine emitting sparks and lights.

At his lab Miss Minutes is still with Timely as he scrambles to keep one item, a small gadget. Minutes suggests he lay low and not go to the TVA. Miss Minutes wants a body and wonders why he never gave her one, starting to get weird, Timely turns her off. Renslayer arrives with a weapon and declares herself in charge. Loki and Mobius barge in.
