Prologue

Great Scott!

Doc Eht it would come to this

It had all started so siht he had conducted the time experiment - all the way back in 1955

A stor, was about to break

The clock tower read 10:04

The DeLorean, with its special super-conducting electrical pole added for the occasion, raced toward the electrical line

And lightning struck the clock tower!

At the last possible second, Doc Brown connected the cables

The hook on the pole above the DeLorean hit the electrical line - and 121 jigowatts of electricity flooded into the flux capacitor -

And the DeLorean vanished into the future, leaving only twin trails of fire where its wheels had been!

Ah, that was a great day for science! Of course, Doc hadn’t invented the DeLorean time machine in 1955 Heavens, DeLoreans didn’t even exist in 1955! No, it was his 1985 counterpart - a Doc Brown thirty years older and wiser - who had finally perfected attempt to correct it After all, there was no other way for a responsible scientist to act!

He climbed into the DeLorean and set the destination display for 1985, on thethe time Marty returned There was no reason, after all, for Marty not to get a good night’s sleep

They would be very careful, Doc told himself, and there would be no mistakes While he had been in the future, Doc had done some research into the nature of time paradoxes, and discovered their results could bo far ined!

But even Doctor Emmett L Broith all of his intellect, could have never i repercussions that would develop from what he was about to do

Everything - but everything - was different now!

The truck was the clincher It was a new Toyota 4-By-4, jet black and gorgeous And his parents had said that it belonged to him!

Marty McFly still couldn’t believe how ed

Before he had gone into the past, his father had been - Marty had to face it - a ho liked to spend his ti at Jackie Gleason reruns; a ho let his co-worker Biff run all over him His dad had actually done the reports and office work for both men And hisback fro ood parents, had raised Marty and his brother and sister the best they could, but still -

Before he had gone into the past! How easily he accepted all that now It had started with his friend Doc Brown - a local inventor who everybody around Hill Valley thought was a bit of a crackpot, even for California - anyway, Doc had wanted Marty to bring along his video ca a DeLorean into a time machine!
