 Because Daphne died in that time-line, old Frank thinks that if she dies now, he will return to 2006's happy life.Lieserl "Grammar" Marrity, with the help of her father Einstein and her friend Chaplin, had created a time machine (a ""maschinchen""), which she keeps in a small outbuilding called the Kaleidoscope Shed.The machine's components are a swastika of gold filaments; a (fictional) cement slab with Chaplin's handprints, footprints and signature, dated 1928, from the forecourt of the Grauman's Chinese Theatre; a videotape of "A Woman of the Sea", a lost film Chaplin made in 1926; and a pack of letters from Einstein to Grammar.
