An accident involving time travel strands someone in the past; they have to figure out how to get back to their own time. The accident can take at least three forms: * The traveler didn't mean to time travel at all, and has to figure out what was going on in the first place in order to replicate it. * The traveler breaks or loses a crucial component of the time machine in the journey, and has to find it or improvise a replacement. * The traveler accidentally screws up the past, and the time machine won't work properly until they Set Right What Once Went Wrong.

Often the eventual plan for getting back requires the traveler to have foreknowledge of events, Write Back to the Future, or otherwise exploit their out-of-time status. Compare Trapped in the Past, where the character simply lives in the past instead of trying to return. Examples of Get Back to the Future include:
