Calvin and Hobbes the Series (Fanfic)/Recap/S2 TVM 1 Time Terror

"When Sherman's new invention throws himself, Andy, Hobbes, and Socrates into different time periods, Calvin must use his own Time Machine to save them."

Calvin's inventions are piling up, much to the irritation of Sherman. He tries to one up Calvin with his own variation of the time machine made from a washing machine. Unfortunately, the machine malfunctions, and Hobbes, Andy, Sherman and Socrates are picked up and flung into four different time periods. Calvin takes hold of his own time machine and travels through time to rescue them.


 * First, he heads to the Jurassic period and saves Hobbes from some dinosaurs, though he stalls for a bit for the Rule of Drama.

Tropes:
"Calvin: So I was showing off my inventions. BIG DEAL! So your ego was smarting from it. SUCK IT UP AND BE A HAMSTER!"
 * Adults Are Useless/Cassandra Truth: Calvin's parents aren't interested when Calvin tries to tell them his friends are in danger. To be fair, it sounds ridiculous.
 * Brilliant but Lazy/Mundane Utility/Reed Richards Is Useless: Sherman is annoyed that Calvin uses his potentially revolutionary inventions for trivial things like duplicating pizza and chilling soda.
 * Enemy Mine: Calvin and Socrates team up to get revenge on Sherman for getting them all in this mess.
 * Futureshadowing:  It hasn't happened yet.
 * Genre Savvy: When Calvin gasps when he learns that Sherman is in the future, Hobbes misinterprets it to mean something bad will happen and yells, "Abandon Time Machine!"
 * Get Back to the Future: Everyone winds up in a different time period, and Calvin has to rescue them.
 * Everything's Better with Dinosaurs: Hobbes' destination.
 * The Middle Ages: Andy's destination.
 * The Wild West: Socrates' destination.
 * Zeerust: Sherman's destination.
 * Hoist by His Own Petard: Sherman's invention basically turns on him, and he has to be rescued by Calvin.
 * Insufferable Genius: Sherman.
 * Medium Awareness: Calvin's reason for not simply going to a different time period when being antagonized by dinosaurs is because the chapter's not long enough yet.
 * Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: Sherman's the one who got them all in trouble.
 * At different points, Hobbes and Sherman blame it on Calvin for showing off his inventions, but Calvin refutes this on the grounds that Sherman could've just put up with it, but his ego got the better of him.


 * Oh Crap: Calvin after his friends getting sucked into the time vortex.
 * Our Time Machine Is Different: Sherman's is made from a washing machine.
 * Race Against the Clock: During the final part, Calvin's Time Machine randomly starts to power down, so Calvin needs Sherman's help to refuel it.
 * Say My Name: Several times when the crew is sucked in to the portal.
 * Set Right What Once Went Wrong: Calvin comes to save his friends from their respective places before they alter time.
