"There's not enough time, Corrine," Josie said, cautiously looking around, "We need to get to Z's office."

"Whose office?"

"Z-I mean Bree's office," Josie said, "This is getting really annoying."

"Josie, are you feeling alright?" Corrine muttered, worried by her friends behavior.

"I will be," Josie replied, "When we get some answers."

The two girls stopped in front of the science teacher's office. Corrine noticed Josie shaking her head at the sign.

"Josie, are you sure you're okay?" she asked.

"I'm fine," Josie replied, "This is just very, very strange."

Opening the door, she and Corrine walked in to meet Vaughn, Lucas, Marshall, and Bree.

Ten minutes later

"And your sure this Z person actually exists?" Lucas asked.

"For the millionth time, yes, Lucas!" Josie exclaimed exasperantly.

"You know, I could check for him on the net," Marshall said out loud, "I mean that's the way you said we found you, Josie. After the whole travel back to 1977 thing, " he added, catching everyone's look.

"That's a good idea, Marshall," Corrine said, smiling at the boy. Marshall grinned back.

"Yeah, it's a good idea," Josie agreed, her expression conflicted.

"But?" Lucas said, knowing that look. Vaughn looked over at Josie expectantly.

"But, the Janitor said that Z didn't exist here," Josie replied, sounding as though she were trying to make the words sensible even to herself.

"Maybe he meant here as in the school," Vaughn offered.

"No, he said Z doesn't exist in this timeline."

"Interesting," Bree said, suprising everyone, "It would seem that whatever event of the past, that is effecting our current position, has not only seemingly destroyed Victor Pearson, but your professor Z as well."

"Destroyed?" Vaughn exclaimed.

"It's the only logical conclusion to be drawn from the Janitor's statement," Bree replied, "Hard as it may be."

"Well, I don't know about you guys," said Marshall, who had been setting up his laptop, "But I'd still like the benefit of facts. Where did you say this teacher originally worked, Josie."

"Some girl's school in Ontario," Josie replied.

Marshall looked at her expecantly.

"And..." he said.

"And what?" Josie remarked, "That's all he ever told us."

It suddenly struck Josie how little she really knew about Z.

"Fine, fine," Marshall muttered, annoyed, "Let's see what I can find."

As the computer wiz began his search, the other science club members continued to discuss possible ways Josie and Vaughn could know what had changed in the timeline, while seemingly not having gone through the wormhole.

Suddenly Durst voice interrupted them.

"Josie Trent and Vaughn Pearson, come to my office immediately."

Josie and Vaughn looked at each other. The other members of science club all gave them weird looks.

"You two should probally go," said Bree.

"But..." Josie started to argue.

"Come on, Josie," Vaughn said. He grabbed the red head's hand, "It's not gonna help argueing."

Josie shot an annoyed look at Vaughn. Nodding, she agreed and the two walked out of the room. Corrine and Marshall watched Lucas, who was now holding himself stiffer then before.

"Hey, Lucas, are you okay?" Marshall asked his roomate.

"Fine," Lucas replied clipped, "Just fine."

Corrine and Marshall shared a worried glance.
