Bell traveled through time, discussing the Ellis Island immigration story in America where over 12 million hopeful immigrants aspired for new beginnings. Bell also visited ancient Egypt, explaining how their astronomical observations gave rise to the 24-hour day, influencing our understanding of time to this day. Concluding her journey in Munich, Bell marvels at the Glockenspiel Clock Tower, a symbol of the city's rich history and culture, with its daily performances transporting viewers back in time.
