* TimeyWimeyBall: The time travel appears to have at least two different modes, but the explanation is very scanty. Tim can go back to a previous occasion and change what he did, but then he can choose to either live from that point onwards, or snap forward to where he jumped from and see what the changes have been. The event described in SecretKeeper seems to suggest [[spoiler: he can also undo these changes.]]
