Thunderbirds: Back to the 20s

Back to the 20s Part 1

It was a very special occasion for Alan Tracy and his girlfriend Tin Tin Kyrano. It was the 3rd anniversary of when Alan first asked Tin Tin to go out with him and Alan was very excited. His father's scientific advisor Brains had insisted on coming over to the lab after their rescue was done for some reason.

"So, why do you think Brains wants to see us?" Tin Tin asked as soon as they had gotten back from Thunderbird 3 with Scott.

"I don't know. Maybe he made a new addition to that time machine he's been working on all week." Alan said.

They arrived outside the lab as soon as they had rushed past Jeff and Alan knocked on the door. Gordon, who was in the lab with Brains, answered it.

"Hi, Tin Tin, Alan," Gordon said as he got the labcoat he was wearing off and replaced it with his own gray jacket. "Brains is expecting you."

"Yeah. I think it's because it's 3 years ago since I first asked Tin Tin to go out with me." Alan said.

"Oh yeah, I forgot about that," Gordon said slapping his forehead. "Go in, Dad wants to speak to me."

Both Tin Tin and Alan stepped inside the lab. Brains was working on what appeared to be the sleep inducer. Braham, Brains's robot, was helping out until he identified Alan and Tin Tin shouting "Intruder alert! Intruder alert!"

Brains looked up, walked over to Braham and said "No, Braham, they're n-not intruders, they're part of, uh, our team," At that, he turned to Alan and Tin Tin. "Oh, Alan, Tin Tin, I've g-got something for you."

Brains put his hand in his pocket and pulled out a small camera and handed it to Alan. Alan read what was on them.

"The Bad Guy Detector and Movement Camera: Property of Interantional Rescue," Alan exclaimed. "Gee, Brains! How did you get this?"

Brains smiled sheepishly and said "Oh, i-it was no problem. I thought maybe you'd w-want to take Tin Tin with you to try it out."

"Gee, that's swell, Brains," Alan said. "But why you call this thing a bad guy detector?"

"That w-was Gordon's idea," Brains said. "Your father needs me to, uh, go with y-you two just to make sure you don't c-cause any mischief."

"Okay," Tin Tin said. "That's really nice, Brains."

"So what are we planning to do with this?" Alan asked.

"We can go back to the y-year 1925 t-tommorow night," Brains said. "I'll, uh, give you the clothes that you've g-got to wear during that time period. Got it?"

"Sure," Alan said. "Thanks, Brains."

"No worries." Brains said without stuttering.

Alan and Tin Tin left the lab. As Alan went into the living room where his and Tin Tin's 3rd anniversary party was held, he kept on thinking about that Bad Guy Detector which was Gordon's idea. He couldn't wait.
