Then a comet crosses the solar system, and a flea infestation occurs in Limoeiro. Then they program a robot to make cakes and develop an AI. Finally, they discover a prehistoric fossil, and Franklin loses sleep trying to decipher the mysteries of time. Science emerges as the answer to each adventure, and together they learn and become best friends and scientists, discovering that true time travel is science itself!
