Ulrich goes back in time to 1953 and is immersed in his own prebirth history, including meeting his father. Other significant events involve the finding of two young boys at a construction site and the presentation of nuclear energy to a skeptical public. We think Ulrich brutally murders Helge, but... The whole time thing gets rather academic when the stranger meets the creator of the time machine. He is looking for a way to disable the thing and eliminate a wormhole which can only bring destruction. We meet the Nazi-like guy who is proposing the power plant, a humorless, ugly man who doesn't bat an eye when the two boys are found.
