Among them is an amazing object he discovered – a rock that seems to hold a fossilized screw. The Fixie kids wonder - could this fossil actually be the petrified remains of an ancient Fixie? After all, in moments of danger Fixies turn themselves into screws to hide, and if there were no energy around that Fixie would have stayed in that state forever. Tom Thomas, Simka and Nolik try to revive their ancestor with the help of electricity and magic incantations. They even create the setting of a prehistoric cave for their attempts, so when the Fixie awakens from his hibernation he won’t be afraid of today’s strange modern world. But nothing seems to work and the petrified screw shows no signs of life. Tom Thomas’ dad enters, examines the fossils, and solves the riddle. He says that the fossil is that of an ancient sea lily which in fact resembles a screw. Tom Thomas wonders how his dad knows so much about fossils. It ends up that like his son he too liked to collect rocks as a boy. He invites Tom Thomas to his office to see his old collection. Simka and Nolik are left in the room disappointed that their dream of the existence of ancient Fixies wasn’t true. But Nolik doesn’t give up hope. He’s sure one day proof of their existence will emerge. As he walks away he does not see a piece of the stone fall away to reveal the Fixies “Tideesh” symbol on the rock.\n
