Synopsis:
The Inferior Five are transported back to the time of the French Revolution via a portal inside a giant clock. They help the Crimson Crysanthemum rescue Charles Darnit from the guillotine. The Crysanthemum is caught, but is able to save himself. The Inferior Five are then caught trying to save him. Awkwardman is the first to go to the guillotine, but the blade breaks on his neck. The Crysanthemum then helps the team escape and return to their own time period.
