Lawrence Gomes (c.a. 2040) was an employee of Crosstime Traffic. He and his son Paul were sent to an alternate where Germany won World War I, conquered Europe, and then went on to defeat and occupy the United States in 1956. The Gomes were responsible for the shop Curious Notions, an electronics store which specialized in technology far more advanced than was available in the alternate. The three then rescued Lawrence Gomes from the Triads. Wong made arrangements to bring the Woo family to the home timeline.
