After a long moment of silence, punctuated only by the deep, rhythmic breathing of the exhausted horses, the coach door opened, two brightly malevolant eyes pierced the air, searching the grounds, and slowly, unfolding the journey's discomfort from his aching bones, down from the hidden interior stepped ...

His suspicions were substantiated when he turned back to continue his walk and caught sight of himself, looking back at himself looking at himself back there.

"Could this be the temporal paradox?" he thought. "Has Suho finally blown the ultimate fuse, the one which protects the cosmic clock?"

His musings were brought to an abrupt end as, with a maniac cackle of glee, the ex-Suho, (who had now renamed himself Shokko-man) leapt from the shadows wearing a silver lurex suit, brandishing a lightning rod and throwing off sparks .... as the Doc bent to pick up a suitably sized rock (he called it Sudden Impact Therapy - it was remarkably effective) ...

With a whiz and a pop from Shokko-man's impromtu static discharge, the baseball hat that his assaulant was wearing went flying into the air. The figure stood up, wearing an awlful, multi-coloured coat. Then came the shrill, cracking voice from a teenager not yet done with puberty.

"Doc! Doc!"

It was Marty McFly. Yes, something was seriously wrong with the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th dimensions.

Yes .. pants ... the dimensional rift was widening ... and as Marty and Shokko evapourated into a hyperdimensional pattern of flat planes and tiny rectilinear blocks, the breath from the panting horses solidified and fell, with a series of deep plops, into dimensions 2,3 and 5 of Doc's mug ...
