Line 35:
** "[[wikipedia:All Our Yesterdays (Star Trek: The Original Series)|All Our Yesterdays]]": Kirk, Spock and McCoy are sent back in time to earlier eras of the planet Sarpeidon and must find the doorway(s) that will take them back.
* ''[[Doctor Who]]'':
** In "[[Doctor Who/Recap/NS/S3S29/E10 Blink|Blink]]", the Weeping Angels strand the Doctor and Martha in 1969 and they have to get Sally Sparrow to send the TARDIS back to them, so from their perspective the plot follows this trope. ([[Lower Deck Episode|The episode isn't written from their perspective.]])
** A great many stories from the the First Doctor era pretty much live on Rule 2. In the second story, the Daleks take a vital component to the TARDIS (rendering the ship immobile); the TARDIS is trapped behind a one-way wall in an Aztec temple; the TARDIS is buried under a pile of debris during the Dalek invasion of Earth; and so on.
* ''[[The Twilight Zone]]'' TOS episode "[[wikipedia:The Odyssey of Flight 33|The Odyssey of Flight 33]]": In 1961, a airliner is sent back to the time of the dinosaurs when it's accelerated to enormous speed by an unusual jet stream. It uses the jet stream to try to get back and ends up in the recent past (1939).
