He materializes in an arena in Ancient Rome. Scrat reaches for his acorn, but is dragged off when his tail is caught on a passing chariot. Scrat manages to free himself just as a fanfare sounds. He thinks it is victory music and introduces himself to the crowd like a triumphant gladiator, proudly holding up his acorn. Then he hears the growl of a lion coming from the tunnel behind him. He activates the time machine again before the lion can attack him, and lands on an ice field. He is overjoyed, thinking he is home, but he soon sees the RMS Titanic appear out of nowhere, heading straight towards him he was actually in April 14, 1912 AD and on the same iceberg that sank the ship. The time machine is activated after impact, and Scrat finds himself in the first Ice Age movie, where he encounters himself and fights himself for his acorn Manny, Sid, Diego, and Roshan make a cameo. The acorn is teleported yet again, much to the distress of both Scrats. Shortly after, Scrat also is teleported.The time traveling Scrat is then sent to many dangerous situations where he would have been killed if he had not activated the time machine in time under a launching rocket during the Space Race, in a dark jewelery store he sets off the security alarms when he picks up a diamond, in a girls locker room where he is hit by a roller brush, in the French Revolution where he appears under the falling blade of a guillotine, during Benjamin Franklins kite flying experiment and gets zapped by lightning, in front of a wrecking ball, in front of the Hiroshima bombing, on the tracks of an oncoming train in the Wild West and in front of Michelangelos David. Frustrated, Scrat punches the machine, which sends him into a strange realm of floating timepieces. Scrat spots his acorn and grabs it, just before being drawn into a wormhole along with his acorn and the time machine. ........
