From Wild West New Mexico the chrononauts move backward to an island off the Barbary Coast in North Africa, April of 1805. There they run afoul of pirate captain Beal. When Beal learns they're not seamen and command no ransom, he orders them killed. The arrival of Stephen Decatur's naval detachment earns them an impromptu stay of execution, but as is so often the case, the pair is between hammer and tongs: the pirates on one side and Decatur's pirate killers on the other. Matters worsen when an accident translates Beal forward to Project Tic Toc, where he causes all kinds of problems...
