"Tim", as Rags's future self is called, tells Rags that he is on vacation (Tim explains that rather than just simply travel to different places in the world, people from his time travel to other time periods). Tim reveals he cannot tell anyone about his time and leaves for his time, Rags stows away with him. Rags learns he will not become ruler of the world but rather "a 30-year-old New Yorker magazine-reading virgin". Tim passes off Rags as a Mexican dog named Milo to everyone until Tim can send him back to his own time. Rags learns he will work at the Quillsville Radio Staple while living with Kevin, his childhood teddy bear, in a filthy apartment. Template:RAGStory - Tim & Rags 3 Disgusted with the way his life will turn out, Rags remodels Tim's apartment. Returning home, he finds that his apartment is in flames due to the stress-relieving candles Rags put there.

His life now ruined, Tim laments the day of his near-death experience at the community pool, revealing that memories of the experience will re-surface when Rags is 15 years old, causing him to repress most of his major emotions and preventing him from taking any risks. They visit Ava (who reveals that she had recognized "Milo" as her "little Rags" immediately) at a retirement home for a loan and get a new time travel watch. Rags travels back in time to the day of the accident and prevents himself from getting crushed by the chair. However, future Rags gets vaporized by present Rags, thus creating a paradox and skipping the formalities of Future Rags disappearing eventually. As the family packs up and heads for home, Tom bids farewell to a transgirl to whom he's been talking to, considering how much she likes her name: Rhonda.
