The 2nd ep is all about events in the future , and Lister's attempt to avoid them. The ship goes faster than light which cases them to see things in the future that haven't happened yet - which is the crux of the comedy pic.twitter.com/3enPCt4tYR

here. One of the events with Lister's sons isn't followed up on until Ep 12. So much of this episode is quotable, and I still say things from this one in real life, a few passed on to my daughter as well. #hollyyoureagoit pic.twitter.com/WJ5blc8aU5
