Kryten: Precisely. That’s why we’re experiencing these curious time phenomena on board.

Lister: [minus the hat] So, that thing’s spewing time…

Kryten: Precisely. That’s why we’re experiencing these curious time phenomena on board.

Lister: What time phenomena?

Kryten: Like just then, when time repeated itself.

The Cat: Only joking.
