Following the trail of blasted buildings and broken men, Gates finds The Superjudge.

“All right, squire, I know how this works;” he said, approaching the ‘Judge. “You get to your ship, you call your mates and sooner’n I can say ‘Galactus’ it’s all ‘so long Earth; nice knowing ya.’ Not on my detail, sonny Jim. I… wait. Are you crying?”

“No,” The ‘Judge sobbed. “I… I have something in my eyes.”

“All ten of ‘em? Mate, whatever it is can’t be that bad…”

“My wife,” The ‘Judge whimpered between metallic sobs. “She… She’s shagging a primate.”

“C’mon you poor bastard; let’s put these hostilities behind us, nip down to the pub, have a pint and discuss this man to whatever you are.”

“Will they have Barbeque?”

“Know where they have the best Barbeque? 1964.” Gates said.

“You mean, time-travel?” The ‘Judge asked. “What’s your name?”

“Lem,” Gates announced. “But you can call me Gates.”

“You know what, Gates?” The Superjudge growled, a malicious gleam in it’s five pairs of eyes. “I’m feeling better all ready.”

    1964 was kinda a short-lived series to be referenced, might fly past the radar of most. But not I, for I am über-geek. Oh, and Lem is totally fraked at this point.

    I loved the title, and the conversation as Gates shows sympathy for the husband (?) of the woman (?) he is shagging. But I can’t think Ellie’s gonna be too thrilled with what she’s about to overhear . . .

    The question is: did he shag her? He certainly doesn’t seem to recognize the alien race that The Superjudge! belongs to. Remember, Gates is a time-traveler. From the point of view of The Superjudge!, Gates has been having a lengthy torrid affair with his wife. But from Gates’ POV , maybe the affair hasn’t even happened yet.
