In the suburbs nothing usually changes, but one night a new set of neighbors moves in and things do change. Especially odd because they come in the middle of the night and they didn’t bring a moving truck. They didn’t even bring a car, in fact.
As it turns out, they are from 400 years or so in the future and they’ve come to escape what they see as a sterile society. What isn’t explained is how they managed to have their child the “natural” way without being detected. You’d think someone would notice that. It’s also odd that a fragile time-travel device made of what appears to be glass can easily be put back together by a young child so that it works again. Oh well. It’s not a bad tale, just lacking in some details.
Keep an eye out for Adam Ant as neighbor Ted Hellenbeck and Marcia Strassman of Honey, I Shrunk the Kids as the mom.
