Synopsis:
The Warlord, Shakira, and Krystovar find themselves pulled into another dimension. Eventually they emerge in the presence of Dr. Reno Franklin who seems confused. His confusion becomes mutual when alternate version of the three adventurers suddenly appear. Before explanation can be exchanged, Franklin begins convulsing. This causes Morgan and his companions to re-enter the inter-dimensional rift.

When they next emerge the trio find themselves on the deck of the U.S.S. Eldridge, the ship that was involved in the Philadelphia Experiment. Franklin is there as well, surrounded by a blue glow. He doesn't recognize the travelers, who disappear as suddenly as they arrived.

After another trip through dimensions, the adventurers arrive in 2068. They meet Franklin again. This time he gives them chronal-dampeners which prevent them from being pulled away. Franklin then begins explaining how he was part of the Philadelphia Experiment and that his body contains chronal radiation which affects time and space.

Meanwhile, back in Skartaris, Tara searches for a way to bring Morgan back or to follow him. Her efforts are interrupted by soldiers from New Atlantis.
