After walking through the white energy screen, the Looney Tunes found themselves back in Wile E's lab. Calamite Coyote had successfully repaired the device and brought them back to their current time. It had taken him 2 hours to fix the device and he was utterly exhausted. He was sitting on the floor with the remote control in his hand. He wanted to sleep but he just didn't feel tired. Everyone else was looking around the lab. It hadn't changed at all from when they were there before. Everyone other than Jessica, Zach and Sylvester Jr. was also exhausted from their battle. Wile E could smell that the time machine had burnt out again from pulling everyone back. In his mind, he decided not to repair it. It proved more dangerous than beneficial.
"I am so glad to be home again." Daffy muttered.
"How long have we been gone?" Jessica asked.
"According to that clock, it's been two hours since the time machine was first activated." Lola replied.
"But we were in the past for longer than that." Zach protested.
"Don't bother trying to understand Zach, you'll get a headache." Daffy muttered. Wile E was checking the historical records on a computer in the room while this was going on. After looking through the data for a few minutes, he seemed satisfied. He shut down the computer and rejoined the others.
"Good, the timelines haven't been affected by our little trip." Wile E said.
"That's a relief. Sylvester said.
"What would this place be like if the timelines were affected?" Penelope asked.
"Who knows?" Miss Prissy replied.
"Well, th-th-there's no point in staying here" Porky said.
"But I think we should do something about your enemies Bugs." Tweety said.
"They deliberately tried to alter time. They have to be punished somehow." Aaooga added.
"Firstly, I want to know whose idea it was." Bugs said.
"It was mine." Marvin the Martian replied proudly.
"And you're proud of it?" Lola asked.
"Sure we are, huhuhuhuhuhu." Elmer Fudd replied.
"It would be much better around these parts without you, you darn varmint." Yosemite Sam added.
"Any ides on what we should do with them?" Lola asked. Jessica was suddenly reminded of the speech Wile E had made to her and Zach soon after they had found the hideout, and how it had bored them to death. This gave her an idea about what could be done to her father's enemies. She tugged on her father's leg to get his attention and motioned him to lean in closer.
"What is it Jess?" Bugs asked.
"I have an idea on what to do to our enemies." Jessica replied. Bugs leaned over and Jessica whispered into his ear. After whispering her idea, Bugs found himself laughing quietly.
"Good idea Jess." Bugs motioned Wile E to come over and he then whispered Jess's idea into Wile E's ear. After listening to the idea, Wile E nodded in agreement and then began walking away, motioning Calamite to follow him. They went into another room of the lab and stayed in there for a few minutes, leaving everyone wondering what was going on. Eventually, a group of robots came out of the room and began heading towards Elmer Fudd, Yosemite Sam, Rocky, Mugsy and Marvin the Martian. Before they could react, they were grabbed by the robots and taken into the room where Wile E and Calamite had gone. There was another pause for a couple of minutes.
"What's going on in there?" Daffy asked.
"I have, I say, I have no idea." Foghorn Leghorn replied.
"All we can do is wait." Bugs said.
"Well we don't have to wait for much longer." Lola added, pointing at the door.
Calamite coyote had come out of the room and was holding up a sign that read 'please follow me'. Obeying the sign, the group followed Calamite around and into the room. He led the group to a viewing room, which had a one-way window. They could look into another room but the people in the other room couldn't look out. Calamite then went through a side door and into the other room. The rest of the group looked through the one-way window to see what was happening. They saw Elmer Fudd, Yosemite Sam, Rocky, Mugsy and Marvin the Martian strapped to chairs in the room. It was arranged like a classroom, complete with a whiteboard at one end. Wile E coyote was at the front of the room while Calamite was next to him, holding a remote control. With the aid of speakers, the group could hear what was going on. Wile E was giving a lecture as to why messing with time is such a bad thing. It was similar to the lecture that he had given to Jessica and Zach, except that it was much longer. The five did try and interrupt but every time they did, they suffered an electric shock. Whenever this happened, Wile E started his lecture from the very beginning. This got the group in the viewing room laughing hysterically.
"They're getting what they deserve." Daffy said.
"Who's idea was this?" Tweety asked.
"Jessica's." Bugs replied.
"Nice idea."
"Thanks." Jessica replied. The group watched for about 1 hour as Wile E lectured Elmer Fudd, Yosemite Sam, Rocky, Mugsy and Marvin the Martian about time travel. If they hadn't interrupted and got shocked, the lecture would have only taken 15 minutes. By the time he finished, everyone was relieved.
"Now, does anybody want me to repeat what I said?" Wile E asked. Calamite Coyote pressed a button on the remote control and a lever pulled Elmer Fudd's hand into the air. Wile looked and smiled.
"Ok, for Elmer Fudd's sake, I shall repeat myself." Everybody in the room other than Wile E and Calamite groaned in annoyance. In the viewing room, everybody was laughing at their misfortune.
"That's overkill." Daffy exclaimed.
"But they deserve it." Lola added.
"Let's leave them and let them get tortured." Bugs said.
"Yeah, we m-m-might as well go home." Porky added.
"And next time, we'll listen to Jessica when she says not to trust Wile E's inventions." Lola added. Jessica just smiled smugly to herself.
"Well, see you guys whenever." Sylvester muttered. With that, the group left the viewing room and went back to their homes, ready for a good night's rest. They had been through quite an ordeal and just wanted to get back home. They were missing their home turf and were very relieved to be back in their time. They decided in their heads to not trust Wile E unless absolutely necessary.
When they returned home, Bugs and Lola found themselves unable to get to sleep. This was partly because of the time of day. It was still early evening so they just couldn't force themselves to sleep. The trip through time had thrown their internal clocks out of synch. Jessica still had a lot of energy. She still intended to go to the Foxcave later and do what she normally did every evening, but that would have to wait until her parents were asleep. When they were inside, Lola went to the kitchen while Bugs went into one of the storage rooms. This left Jessica alone in the lounge, not that she minded. She quite enjoyed her trip through time, but still found it hard to believe that Sleety was behind the problems in the past. She decided not to think anything more of it. She dashed into her room and came back with a comic. She then promptly sat on the couch and began chilling out. She needed to have a while to chill out before she could go off crime fighting. While she was reading, her nose began twitching. She could smell fried carrots being cooked. Lola obviously didn't have the energy to cook a proper meal so she decided to cook something quick and easy. Jessica just waited patiently whilst reading her comic. After a few minutes, Lola came through with three trays of fried Carrots. At about the same time, Bugs came back with a large piece of rolled up paper. When Jessica saw the scroll, her curiosity was tickled.
"What is that dad?" Jessica asked.
"It's our family tree. I just wanted to check for sure that Barry and Becky are related to us." Bugs replied.
"Why would you want to do that?" Lola asked, while handing out the plates of fried Carrots.
"Just curious, I guess."
"Why don't we all have a look once we've eaten?"
"Eh, sure thing." Bugs and Lola both sat down next to Jessica and the three of them began eating their snack. When they finished, Bugs held up the family tree and let it unroll. The final piece of paper was too big to fit in the room, with half of the paper leaning against a wall on the other side of the room. Starting at themselves, the three of them began tracing back to try and find Barry and Becky. Eventually, after about half an hour of searching, Bugs saw them about halfway down the tree.
"Here they are." Bugs exclaimed, pointing to their names. Lola and Jessica came over to where Bugs was and had a look for themselves.
"Guess they are related to us." Jessica muttered.
"And, looking at this, they did have a single child."
"Bit like us at the moment." Bugs said. Everyone giggled a little.
"Who was their child?" Jessica asked.
"Well, looking at this, they had a son called…Brett." Lola replied.
TH-TH-TH-THAT'S ALL FOLKS!
