Player Characters

    Marty McFly  

Martin Seamus "Marty" McFly

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/marty_4.png
Played by: Kara Strait

The youngest teenage child of George and Lorraine McFly whose marriage he accidentally ruined, then saved, after time traveling back to the past thanks to his friend, Doc Brown. After returning to the present, however, he finds himself wrapped up in yet another time traveling adventure, this time involving the future of his kid.


  • The Ditz: Oblivious to how strange his friendship with Doc is, how unbelievable their adventures are, and how completely crazy he comes across trying to explain either...Oh and he doesn't like condoms.
  • Epic Fail: Tries to hit Griff with the handle from "his" scooter. He misses and accidentally hits himself in the head with it.
  • Fish out of Temporal Water: At one point asks "Where can I buy a Wikipedia?"
  • Intergenerational Friendship: With Doc, which he thinks is totally normal and that all teenagers have.
  • Mugged for Disguise: Planned to do this to his own son, but changes his mind when he realizes that he and Jennifer's current clothes are probably acceptable as they are.
  • Seen It All: His first time traveling adventure has numbed him to just how bizarre and questionable everything he and Doc explain about time travel.
  • Took a Level in Dumbass: Assuming the events of the original Back to the Future proceeded exactly as expected, than Marty sure got a Hell of a lot dumber in the span of less than five minutes between the first film and the second.

    Doc Brown 

Dr. Emmett Lathrop "Doc" Brown

Played by: Jon Miller

Eccentric scientist, inventor of the DeLorean time machine and Marty's best friend.


    Jennifer Parker 

Jennifer Jane Parker

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/jennifer_04.png
Played by: Joz Vammer

Marty's girlfriend who accidentally finds herself wrapped up in Marty and Doc's time traveling hijinks.


  • Audience Surrogate: Unlike the Doc and Marty, she has zero prior experience with time travel or the associated side effects.
  • Fish out of Water: As expected of anyone thrust into this sort of situation, she's completely out of her depth in terms of anything related to the future or time travel. Though overtime it slowly becomes harder and harder to defend.
  • "Freaky Friday" Flip: In an unusual example, Jennifer ends up swapping bodies with herself from five minutes into the past/future.
  • Jumping Off the Slippery Slope: Jennifer’s immediate reaction to the slightest of suggestions that Old Biff knows the truth about her and Marty? Attempt to knock him unconscious.
  • The Load: Her inexperience rears its ugly head to complicate the adventure more than once.
    • Early on she presses a button on what she thinks is a radio and nearly sends them to a different point in time entirely.
  • Only Sane Woman: Compared to Doc and Marty's more casual conversations regarding time travel, Jennifer acts...Well, how you'd expect someone to react.
    • Downplayed as the session goes on, with Jennifer repeatedly taking more and more unhinged actions to try and keep herself safe, which ironically only further unravels everything going on.
  • Skewed Priorities: Despite being at the center of a paradox threatening to destroy the Universe, the only thing Jennifer seems to care about is getting a glass of water.
  • Too Dumb to Live: While not expected to be an expert or anything when it comes to handling time travel, Jennifer only seems to get progressiver dumber throughout the session, to a point where anytime she tries to help Doc and Marty, it could easily be argued she'd have done more by staying out of the way.
    • Brought to its natural extreme when all her actions in combination end up helping bring about the end of the universe.
  • Too Incompetent to Operate a Blanket: Jennifer is "mundane", which seemingly means she doesn't even understand that the "off" and "on" buttons are usually the same button.

2015

Marty's Family

    Future Marty 

Martin Seamus "Marty" McFly (2015)

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/old_marty.png
Played by: Paulo Quiros

Marty's future self.


  • Broken Masquerade: When Old!Marty and his entire family have seen both the young and old Jennifer in the same room, he tells all of them that time travel is real. (Though apparently half of them knew already.)
  • Heroic Sacrifice: Old!Marty and Old!Jennifer from five minutes further into in the future jump into the black hole in an attempt at preventing more paradoxes from occuring. They are killed instantly.
  • Screw This, I'm Out of Here!: Once the paradoxes start unraveling, Old!Marty simply takes his family and leaves the town. Unfortunately, it's not enough to save them.

    Future Jennifer 

Jennifer Jane Parker (2015)

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/old_jennifer.png
Played by: Paulo Quiros

Jennifer's future self.


  • Heroic Sacrifice: Old!Marty and Old!Jennifer from five minutes further into in the future jump into the black hole in an attempt at preventing more paradoxes from occuring. They are killed instantly.

    Marty Jr. 

Marty McFly Jr.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/jr.png
Played by: Paulo Quiros

The son of Marty and Jennifer in the year 2015.


  • Butt-Monkey: Things repeatedly don't go well for Marty Jr. Between the story only happening because he was going to get arrested, Marty, his own father, considered mugging him, and Doc tazes him multiple times.
  • Noodle Incident: Whatever "shenanigans" were prophesied to get him arrested, we never learn the details.
  • Strong Family Resemblance: Looks identical to Marty, to a point where Marty can easily take his place as Doc points out.
  • What Happened to the Mouse?: Doc Brown simply leaves the unconscious Marty Jr. in the middle of a street before fleeing from the police. According to tomorrow's paper, he was eventually saved and managed to survive. Though it's unlikely he lived through the destruction of the Universe.

Biff's Family

    Future Biff 

Biff Howard Tannen (2015)

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/biff_17.png
Played by: Paulo Quiros

George McFly's boss in the original 1985, who thanks to Marty's intervention in his high school years would end up in a more humble position, much to his frustration.


  • Demoted to Extra: From Big Bad of the original film to a minor character here.
  • Future Loser: By 2015, he has pretty much nothing to his name- he's poor, his grandson doesn't respect him, and he's done nothing with his life. Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy.
  • Hate Sink: Now merely this, in contrast to the movie, where he was the Big Bad. It is assumed that he used to be a bully when he was younger, and that his poor parenting resulted in his son becoming a criminal, but he is still Hijacked by Ganon before he has time to do anything other than simply being an unlikable Jerkass.
  • He Knows Too Much: Jennifer tries to kill Biff with a hovering board because she thinks that he has figured out that she is from the past. Really, she's just being paranoid. All he said was that she reminded him of someone.
  • Hijacked by Ganon: The Big Bad of the original version of the film, but shifts in the plot cause him to fall Out of Focus before he can become a threat here.
  • Jerkass: A pretty unpleasant guy all around, bitter about how life has gone and openly antagonistic toward those around him.
  • Karma Houdini Warranty: Assuming his actions in the prior films are still canon as written, then his current, pathetic life is exactly what he deserves for a lifetime of disregard for others.

    Griff Tannen 

Biff Howard Tannen

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/griff_1.png
Played by: Paulo Quiros

Grandson of Biff Tannen.
