About this episode

Fair Elise made a magical spreadsheet to help Fred and Abacus be more organized with her time travel. Unfortunately, it used up the last of her magic, and now they’re trapped in the past. Can Recap help them navigate their way through the flashbacks and back to the present?

Lessons include: it’s never too late for the truth; love yourself for who you are, not someone else’s picture of you

This full-length, original story, has four short clips from episodes 170, 92, and a patron only episode from January of 2018.
