They receive help from an "Emissary from the Future," Rufus (George Carlin), who allows the boys to travel through time in a bogus phone booth and encounter some excellent (pronounced "exxxxcellent") dudes ("deuds"). They meet Joan of Arc (Jane Wiedlin), Abe Lincoln (Robert V. Barron), Beethoven (Clifford David), and Napoleon (Terry Camilleri) and bring them back as eyewitnesses for their oral exam.
