[edit] Plot

Timequest explores the science fiction theme of altering the present day by traveling back in time and tampering with past events. In this particular film, a time-traveler (Ralph Waite) foils the assassination of John F. Kennedy (Victor Slezak) riding in a Dallas motorcade with wife Jacqueline (Caprice Benedetti) in 1963, thereby taking history on an alternate course.
