LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Kevin is having a ball with his time while traveling across multiple timelines in Apple TV+'s action-adventure show, 'Time Bandits.'

As everyone knows, Kevin loves history, and the opportunity to visit historically significant locations has made him incredibly enthusiastic.

But on his most recent trip through time, to Northern Africa in 1324 CE, he discovers that the bandits are empowered to alter history, which leaves him perplexed.

Yes, in an unexpected turn of events, Kevin missed the time portal in Episode 6 of the show.

In this episode, the gang arrives in Northern Africa in 1324 CE via a time portal, where they meet Mansa Musa and various disasters follow them, including Judy's (Charlyne Yi) disappearance and the robbers's unsuccessful theft of Mansa Musa.

Despite this, Musa generously provides Penelope (Lisa Kudrow) and Alto (Tadhg Murphy) gold bars and admires Kevin's historical knowledge.

Later, Kevin arranges for Penelope to take a staff to improve her spirits, but she eventually decides against it and instead steals rubies from the Sultan.

While the bandits successfully go via a time portal, Kevin, ecstatic about the opportunity to modify history, fails to enter the portal in time.

He is dragged into something else, although it's unclear if it will transport him to the same period as the other bandits.

Kevin's destiny has become ambiguous, raising the chance that the youngster was taken in by Fianna (Rachel House). Given Kevin's strong friendship with the bandits, it is plausible that in the next episode, they will try to rescue their young companion.

But first, the bandits must discover where and when Kevin has landed.

This might include following the time portal's unpredictable behavior and using their knowledge of star constellations and other clues left behind. If Fianna has indeed apprehended Kevin, the bandits will have to face her, as well as potentially Pure Evil (Jemaine Clement).

The gang has to devise ingenious methods and use their particular abilities to outmaneuver their formidable opponents.
