Thank god, finally a human being with a working understanding of the word exact. Though Five doesn't get a chance to appreciate this small mercy, as two very important conclusions occur to him. One, he hadn't meant to jump forward, so he must have made an even bigger mistake than expected.
And two, if it's really April 4th, 2019, then there's no possible way this is Earth.
Five stares at the man as if he's sprouted a second head, barely registering his weird thing with the backpack. Doesn't he understand the gravity of what he just said? "Forget pen and paper! Are you telling me that I'm on another planet?" Guess the tree creatures should have been a tip-off. "But that's insane, that would mean the parameters I've been working with were totally off--" As he's metaphorically running with this new information, he physically paces in a circle with a wild look in his eyes.
"That rabbit kept going on about-- about stories and not knowing how I got here, but I know how I got here, I just need to--" And he suddenly drops to his knees to tear open Tim's backpack, as the writing on the flap helpfully informs him, and starts digging for the pen and paper.
