7:00 p.m.

The car reappeared over the nearest deserted road and landed. Then Marty drove it to Candlestick Park. In the parking lot Marty got out, went to the back and picked up his clothes and the remote for the limousine. 

"Wait here." said Marty to Jennifer. 

And Marty went to the nearest port-o-potty. And got in. Minutes passed as Jennifer sat in the car. She could see Doc and his two boys stirring about. Any time they should wake up. 

What's taking Marty so long? she asked herself. 

Then Marty came out of the port-o-potty wearing his own jeans and jacket. 

"I had to change." said Marty, "Do you think I'm going into that ball park with you looking like Richie Rich?" 

"No.". 

"Okay." said Marty. He got into the driver's seat and set the "Destination Time" indicator on the time circuits for

 NOV 13, 1985 11:15 PM

And the "Destination Location" for

HILL VALLEY, CALIFORNIA

Marty got out with Jennifer and closed the door. 

Before he did he petted Einstein saying "Take care, Einy." 

After loading the fusion generator, Marty used the remote for the limo and activated the hover device. The car lifted off.

++++++

Inside, Doc came too. He looked out and saw Candlestick Park. Looking down he saw Marty and Jennifer in the parking lot. 

"Marty, what in the name of Sir Isaac Newton are you doing?" 

"Doc." said Marty, "If Jennifer wants to see the concert, she wants to see the concert." 

"Marty." said Doc, "You must make sure she doesn't run into her parents. The results could be disasterous." 

Then under his feet, the car sped off and disappeared after accellerating up to 88 miles per hour.

Clara was ready to sit down and hope for the safe return for her two boys when she heard two sonic booms and headed out to the lab. Opening the door she looked up to see the ceiling open and the limousine descending down to the ground. To her surprise, the ceiling closed. Somehow the DeLorean didn't follow down. Then, another discovery. In the limousine, Doc, the two boys, and Einstein were in there. But there was no Marty or Jennifer. 

As the door opened Clara asked "Where's Marty, Jennifer and the Delorean?" 

"They're still back there in 1966." said Doc.

Then Jules spoke up saying "Marty jumped Daddy and us and..." 

Angerly Clara turned to the boys saying "You two are in big trouble! Go to your rooms." 

Somberly, they did. 

Then Clara turned to Doc and asked "Why did you leave Marty and Jennifer there?" 

"I didn't." said Doc, "It was Marty's idea. He seems to put love ahead of scientific fact."

 Then Doc went to get some more poison to reload the limousine's fusion generator. But discovered the container holding the jars were empty.

 "Great Scott!" said Doc

.Apparently, Marty didn't want Doc to go back there and stop them from attending that concert.

Entering Candlestick Park
 

After buying the tickets, Marty and Jennifer entered the ballpark, sneaking the jars of poison past the security. 

"Marty", said Jennifer, "You know this is risky!" 

"I know, Jen." said Marty, "But I didn't want to have Doc come back for us too soon." 

"Oh I see." said Jennifer. 

They went up the escalator to the concourse and went through the concourse to their seats. 

Marty noticed Jennifer looking around and said "Jennifer, I did promise Doc one thing. To keep you from encountering your parents." 

Jennifer looked at Marty and then looked down discouraged.

The Browns received a guest. It was Biff. 

"Hey Doc." he said, "I'll be coming over to wax your car." 

"Alright." said Doc, "But this time, two coats of wax, not just one." 

"I always do." said Biff. 

"Biff!" said Doc, "Don't you dare con me." 

"Alright." said Biff, "This time I wont leave until I put the second coat of wax, even if it takes all day." Then he noticed the poster and said "Hey, isn't that the poster of the Beatles last concert?" 

"It is." said Doc. 

"Hey", said Biff, "I remember that." 

"You do?" exclaimed Doc. 

"Yeah." said Biff, "I was there waxing the armor car that they were riding in." 

"You were?" asked Doc. 

"Yeah." said Biff, "What's the matter?"

 "Nothing." said Doc as he dismissed Biff, "See you tomorrow." 

After Biff left, Doc went through some old newspapers until he came across a 1966 article about the Beatles concert at Candlestick Park. He looked at the author of that article and his worse fears were realized. The last concert was covered, for the Hill Valley Telegraph, by George McFly.

  Great Scott, said Doc to himself, And Marty and Jennifer have all those poison jars with them.

Inside Candlestick Park

The winds of Candlestick were picking up and the temperature was dropping. Jennifer was shivering in her mother's mod outfit and Marty was starting to notice. The Beatles were no help either. 

"It's a bit chilly." said one of them. 

"God", said Jennifer, "What kind of place is this?" 

"I don't know." said Marty, "I hope it's not this cold when there's a ballgame here." Then he said "I'll buy ourselves some hot chocolate." 

Jennifer nodded in agreement. 

Marty got up and as he did, he overheard someone say to him "Is this the first time in Candlestick for your ladyfriend?" 

"It is." said Marty. 

"She's learning about this place the hard way." said the same person. 

Marty looked at this person and then looked at Jennifer and went off to the concession stands. 

He got to the concourse when he heard a voice saying "McFly!" 

Marty turned to see Biff and his gang. And they were approaching someone. That someone was his own dad, George McFly. Marty realized that he has those jars of poison. If he gets caught by Biff and Biff finds out he has those jars of poison, there would been a whole lot of trouble.
