==Summary==
[[Binky Barnes|Binky]] had been in [[Nigel Ratburn|Mr. Ratburn]]'s class last year, so the class sleepover at the [[Elwood City Museum of Science|Science Museum]] is boring; that is, until he finds a new exhibit about the future. After a dream where he is trapped in the future with robots, he holds a new interest in science.
==Plot==
Binky dreads going to the museum because he did it last year, but he sees an exhibit that excites him, "The World of Tomorrow", but to Binky is disappointment it is closed. Then while everyone's asleep (except Binky) he sneaks inside "World of Tomorrow", but gets Trapped inside a spaceship. Then Binky dreams he's in the future and gets out with help from Thruster (who resembles Buster) and he discovers he's in "World Of Yesterday" instead of "Tomorrow" and in the year March 10, 2203. Then, Thruster thinks he's an exhibit, but Binky's on a quest 4 his classmates, but Thruster tells him he can't leave, people will want a refund. Then Binky says he isn't part of the exhibit, he's a Kid like Buster, then Thruster doesn't know what a kid is and says he's an "Immature Artificial Life-Form". Then he takes Binky to a craft, "Take me to anytime." Binky had to answer a science question,"What tiny particles attract a washer to a magnet?" I do not know Binky cried. Then when his dream was over. He saw Buster and told him is Mr. Ratburn's still a robot and Buster asked, "I was a Robot? Did I do cool stuff? Did I shot lasers out of my eyes? Did I drink motor oil?" Lastly, Binky learned that the atoms were what attacked the washer to the magnet, from that moment on Binky had new found respect for Science.
==Trivia==
*It is learned that Binky was in Mr. Ratburn's class the year before. Previously, it was only known that he was repeating third grade this year.
*The class last year all resembling kids from Mr. Ratburn's class this year is similar to the [[Glenbrook Academy]] students from "[[The Return of the King]]."
*This episode takes place in 2003.

==Goofs==
*In this episode, Binky hates macaroni and cheese. However, in "[[Francine Redecorates]]" he says he loves macaroni and cheese.
*[[Prunella Deegan|Prunella]] wasn't in last year's class, despite specifically saying she had him last year in "[[Arthur and the Real Mr. Ratburn]]" (although she might've been absent).

 ==Trivia==
-*This episode takes place on March 10th, 2003 as Binky dreams that he slept for 200 years and the year in his dream is 2203.

-===Cultural references===
-*In Binky's dream he sarcastically tells Thruster he is Engelbert Humperdinck, which could refer either to the classical [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engelbert_Humperdinck_(composer) German composer] (best known for the opera "Hänsel und Gretel") or to the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engelbert_Humperdinck_(singer) British singer] who named himself after the composer.
-*Buster claiming he wanted to wear his robot pajamas to the sleepover, but he had to wear the cowboy ones because the robot ones are in the washing machine might be a reference to the plot of Toy Story, where a cowboy toy gets replaced by a space toy, which itself is a parody of a cultural phenomenon of the 1950s, where kids wanted to be cowboys. But with the launch of Sputnik and the subsequent space race between the US and the Soviet Union, kids wanted to grow up to be astronauts and abandoned their cowboy toys, which is explored even further in Toy Story 2.
-*Binky's dream of him ending up in the future, yet not visibly aging might be a reference to Futurama.
-*This episode is a reference to what Terry said in Futurama which was "Welcome to the World of Tomorrow!".
