Beavis and Butt-Head think that changing time zones are the same thing as time traveling.
Tropes:
- Dumbass Has a Point: In a weird way, the duo are right about the existence of time travel, considering that's how they got to 2022 un-aged in the first place. (it just doesn't happen in the way they think it does). Butt-Head's remark about them being from a "bygone era" couldn't be anymore accurate.
- Failed a Spot Check:
- Butt-Head tells Beavis that they are going "an hour into the future, a place few people will ever go"... while ignoring three vehicles passing by.
- When Beavis returns to the gas station, he believes his hot dog is clean and safe to eat, despite its obvious dirt and mold.
- In the end, Van Driessen and the other students fail to notice the boys stranded behind them in the wasteland, despite the former's decision to keep them on the bus well past sunset to ensure that no one was left behind.
- Five-Second Rule: At the gas station, Beavis drops his hot dog on the floor, so he and Butt-Head "go back in time" to before he dropped it by circling the sign, and when they return, Beavis thinks it's clean despite it very clearly being dirty and eats it anyway.
- Insane Troll Logic: Beavis and Butt-Head think changing time zones somehow means time travelling. Van Driessen tells them it doesn't work like that, but they don't listen anyway and repeatedly circle the "Entering Mountain Time Zone" sign as their gate between "time periods".
- Literal-Minded: Beavis and Butt-Head are informed that time zones are an hour ahead, which they misinterpret as being sent an hour into the future. Van Driessen tries to correct them, but they are too stupid to understand.
- Recycled Premise: This isn't the first time the duo think they've travelled in time on a school field trip.
- Sickening "Crunch!": Happens when Beavis trips on a glass bottle and breaks his arm.
