How and why was the time jump forward achieved in Dick's last trip? Presumably something tweaked in potion C tied into different, more tragic elements in the ether. Certainly it put a far different cast on dabbling in the past; the Black Death doesn't have the same theme park aspect Dick's earlier visits had. The deficient little girl also seemed significant in the same way that art was symbolic as well as representational, but symbolic of what?
(It was admittedly touching to see how her father loved her and cared for her in the midst of such crushing tragedy.)
