- Oops... I stepped off of the path...

- WHAT DID YOU DO?!
- As they are walking through the forest they hear a sound of thunder. It's the dinosaur: a T-Rex! Eckels realizes that he is out of his element. He doesn't think that his gun will be able to kill the dinosaur, and he freaks out.Travis tells him to return to the time machine, but as he goes to return, he steps off of the path!
- Resolution
- NO NO PLEASE NO!!
- Travis and the others are able to kill the dinosaur. As they go to leave, Travis tells Eckels that he can't come back with them because he stepped off of the path. The other safari guide disagrees, and instead they make Eckels collect the bullets from inside the dinosaur as a consequence. He does and they leave.
- They return to the modern day world (2055) and even though everything looked the same, they could all sense that things were different. Writing had been changed, and the president who had been elected was no longer president. Something was wrong!
- NOTHING! I SWEAR!
- Eckels looks down at his muddy shoes, and notices that he killed a butterfly. Travis sees the butterfly on Eckels' shoe and is enraged. Eckels begs for forgiveness, but Travis won't hear it. The story ends with a sound of thunder, but this time it's a gunshot.
