HistoryEdit

Nothing has been revealed about the past of Sydney Burr. As an adult, Burr worked as a scientist and inventor in his personal laboratory, but had no success with his invetions. One afternoon, Burr was working on a time machine when it began shooting out electricity. After recovering from the malfunction, Burr noticed that his cat was frozen in place. He looked out a window, and found that the city below him, and the entire universe, was frozen in time as well, thanks to his machine.

Being broke, Burr took the oppertunity to become wealthy. He took a breifcase, and went through the city scooping up valuables. After cleanning out a jewelry store and a bank vault, as well as takng jewelry and and wallets from people frozen on the street, Burr returned to his lab, and reset the machine to unfreeze time.

While basking in the belief he had just commited the perfect crime, Burr was startled by a knock at his door. When he opened it, Burr was greeted by a police officer and an agry mob accusing him of taking their things.

While being taken outside, Burr asked how they knew he had commited the robberies. The officer replied that, despite being frozen in place, everybody could still observe, and had seen everything Burr had done.

Presumably, Burr was arrested and remains in jail.
