Wes, Jenna and Calzen accidentally arrive in 1914, Calzen telling them that there is a an urgent matter and refuses to allow the time machine to leave. Wes phones his future self to ask what they need to do. The future Wes, who is in some kind of struggle, directs his past self and Jenna to a mansion and warns that he will regret phoning his future self.
At the mansion, Jenna encounters The Ancestor which attacks her. The house's owner, Hallam Platt  tells Jenna that the creature was found frozen in ice and he brought it two years ago. He then has Jenna captured for experiments.
He starts by blasting the Ancestor with a ray that causes it to start mutating. The Ancestor's head becomes slightly bigger and one of it's claws turns into a more human like hand. Wes encounters the Ancestor, which can now speak.
The Ancestor attacks Wes. During the struggle, Wes gets the call from his past self and is forced to direct him to the house while fighting off the Ancestor. Wes is able to reason with the Ancestor and convince it, not to kill him but the Ancestor devolves back into it's original state and attacks Wes again.
Wes freezes the Ancestor and unfreezes Jenna. Platt uses the ray on himself and becomes younger and more muscular. He attacks Wes and Jenna. Wes tries to convince Platt that he turn back like the Ancestor and failing that, freezes him.
Platt's body heat begins to increase, melting the ice. Wes and Jenna flee to the time machine and try to escape but Calzen still refuses to leave, showing on the monitor of the time machine that Platt's actions are altering the present day 2014.
Wes tricks Platt into grabbing the time machine as they leave, causing them to go through the time tunnel, until Platt loses his grip and falls, his fate unknown.
