"Dannnnggggg!!" Nelson laughed, as a man forgot to support one of his figures on his cake in Cake Wars.

"If I was his fairy godmother, Lordy, he'd be a lot happier," Patrisha said.

"Happier? What do you mean?" Nelson asked.

"I mean he could wish to go back in time and fix his problem with the support of the cake, baby," Patrisha explained.

"What!?" Nelson exclaimed.

"What? You want to go back in time?"

"Heck yeah, I do!"

"Like, right now?"

"Yes!!!!" Nelson screamed, waking up the mice he was cuddling with on the sofa.

"Hold my hand, and we'll be on our way."

Nelson didn't want to be weird, but he had to fix that one thing he always wished never happened.

Nelson swallowed.

*grasp!*

"Ooo! Nelson, your paws are so soft!" Patrisha said.

"That's weird!..... I've actually been applying softening cream to my paws for two years..."

*poof!*

"Ah!!"

Not even a heads up!?

Nelson and Patrisha zoomed through a tunnel of turning clocks and windows of memories passing by.

A light in front of them started to glow brighter and brighter.

*flash!*

Nelson opened his eyes to see a gradient room of blue and white. They were floating. No floor, no ceiling.

"Where are we?" Nelson asked.

"The Time Lobby. It's where we wait until you tell me where you want to go," Patrisha explained.

And without a second thought,

"August 11, 2250. Our apartment."

And with a flick of the wrist!

*poof!*

A dark wooden door appeared in front of them.

Nelson looked at Patrisha for approvement.

She nodded.

*swing!*

Nelson swung open the door to see dozens of tall cats running around in lab coats.

"Who the chick flick, are you guys?!" Nelson asked.

Suddenly, everyone stopped moving. They directed their attention at Nelson.

*gasp!*

*gasp!*

There were gasps everywhere. Nelson didn't know why, but he was kind of flattered. He hasn't had this much attention since he broke into an old lady's house to steal her 75 inch TV whilst she was watching it.

"What is it, fellas?" Nelson asked.

"Are you THE Nelson Meem?!" Someone asked.

"The one and only!" Nelson replied.

Out of nowhere, all the tall cats started to get on their knees and bow.

"What da heck?" Patrisha said, as Nelson rubbed all their heads.

Nelson didn't know what was happening, so he just went with his gut and pet them all.

*sniff!*

"Is someone crying?" Nelson asked.
