I introduced this bit to technobabble in Battle of the Robofemoids. If you pay close attention you'll notice that some of the super-high-tech items bear a resemblance to those form the work of Douglas Adams. The finite improbability device is the stripping beam. The finite improbability device in Hitchhiker's Guide was only good at moving the dress of a party hostess several feet in either direction. I even had a observer remark about how it must be great at parties.

So the temporal restoration distillator was invented to restore the faces of the damaged robofemoids. I'm sure there are other "undo's" it is capable of but the time it can access is quite limited. It's hours or even minutes, so speed is necessary. And it reminds us all of the underlying silliness of my work. Haven't we all wanted an "undo" device in real life? For what it's worth here is something like that. There are all kinds of limitations in it and it's success rate on most things is like those programs that are supposed to find deleted files. Bits and pieces because everything was rewritten within seconds. Sorry.

But with living organic material there is maybe more of a memory that can be accessed. You even might have recorded a previous state and can reload it. And no, it's not capable of restoring tissue to what it was like years ago. No magical wrinkle removal here.

Though they look a bit alike there are two different women restored here. The first two battle femoid prototypes. Daria Fessel and Illnia Tehclaough.
