"Get Tannen!"
 
 
After rescuing Gadget and while preparing to return to 2012, Van Man finds himself starting to fade out of existence. The future newspaper Van Man has brought, now reflecting the new timeline, shows that Artie was caught by Tannen's gang and will be killed that night. Van Man is able to go back six hours earlier in the day to convince Artie to leave town, assuring that George and Van Man are born. Gadget and Van Man return to 2012 and discover that, without Artie's presence and evidence, Kid Tannen was able to expand his gang and took over New York. Gadget returns them to two months after their previous visit to August 25, 1931, the night that Kid's moll, Trixie Trotter, was supposed to provide crucial evidence to arrest Tannen. Van Man, with the help of young Hackwrench and Edna Strickland, and of Titanic's great-grandfather, Officer Danny Parker, convince Artie to come out of hiding and to coax Trixie to rat out on Tannen. After Tannen is captured with the help of young Hackwrench's rocket car, Gadget and Van Man prepare to return to the corrected 2012. However, they are unaware that Edna, having become smitten with young Chip's great-grandfather, distracts the boy from seeing ''Frankenstein'' that night, with the young Miss Hackwrench, the film that leads to several of Gadget's inventions. Upon arriving in 2012, the original Gadget disappears, and in the confusion, Van Man crashes the DeLorean through a billboard, disabling the time machine.

"Citizen Chip"
 
 
Van Man is able to get inside the walled community of New York, finding it run like a totalitarianism society under "Citizen Chip" promoting a clean society. After meeting this timeline's counterparts of his friends, Biff, and Titanic, finding them all quietly discontent with their lives, Van Man commits several acts to earn enough demerits to be taken to see Citizen Chip. There, Citizen Chip believes Van Man is having a mental breakdown, but Van Man is able to convince his friend that he has traveled through time. Chip suspects Van Man's story may be true, but requires him to show him evidence of the citizens' displeasure. Van Man returns to George, discovering George's secret surveillance tapes have been stolen by Biff under mind control as part of a "Citizen Plus" program. Van Man follows Biff and soon discovers that Edna, now Chip's wife, is the true mastermind behind the society, having convinced a young Chip's great-grandfather since 1931 to develop a perfect society. Chip discovers Edna's lair, and tells her to leave, while he speaks to Van Man having come to realize that this timeline is not what he wanted. Chip and Gadget goes off to repair the DeLorean to allow Van Man to return to fix it, but Van Man is captured by Edna. He learns that Edna has taken Chip and started administrating a brain-washing treatment and threatens to do the same to Van Man if he does not conform. Gadget is by herself fixing the DeLorean.

"Resurrection Mary"
 
 
The story goes that Mary had spent the evening dancing with a boyfriend at the Oh Henry Ballroom in 1934. At some point, they got into an argument and Mary stormed out. Even though it was a cold winter’s night, she thought she would rather face a cold walk home than spend another minute with her boyfriend.
 
 
She left the ballroom and started walking up Archer Avenue. She had not gotten very far when she was struck and killed by a hit-and-run driver, who fled the scene leaving Mary to die. Her parents found her and were grief-stricken at the sight of her dead body. They buried her in Resurrection Cemetery, wearing a beautiful white dancing dress and matching dancing shoes. The hit-and-run driver was never found.
 
 
Jerry Palus, a Chicago southsider, reported that in 1939 he met a person who he came to believe was Resurrection Mary at the Liberty Grove and Hall at 47th and Mozart (and not the Oh Henry/Willowbrook Ballroom). They danced and even kissed and she asked him to drive her home along Archer Avenue, exiting the car and disappearing in front of Resurrection Cemetery.

Hey how ya'll ghosts doing? Ya'll got a little friend of ours named Dale up there. We was just wondering if you could send him back?
 
Uh huh.
 
Well yes but I...
 
Well I don't see how that's anybody's business but my own.
 
Well how bout you and my father go hang out at the gun range some afternoon and you can spend the whole day just agreeing with each other.
 
 
Gadget: What are they saying? Is Dale alright?
