Bob accepted to take part in a scientific experiment. He will take a pill that will make him sleep for 20 years. Bob will take the pill tomorrow night.
Before he takes the pill, he will say goodbye to his mother and his girlfriend. As soon as he takes the pill, his mother will cover him with a warm blanket and close the box.
After he takes the pill, he will have a few minutes to think about what he is going to do when he wakes up.
When he falls asleep, the scientists will take him to a secure laboratory.
Fast forward 20 years: As soon as he wakes up, he will push a button to open the container. When he gets out of the door, the scientists will examine him to see how he is. After they examine him, he will take a shower and eat some real food.
When we talk about a sequence of events in the future, we use two parts: The Main Action and the Time Trigger.
The verb directly after the time word must be in the PRESENT.
Remember to use the correct tense! If the first part has WILL, the second part needs Present Simple.
Scenario: It is the year 2046. Bob the Time Traveler is arriving in Guatemala City. The President has appointed you to organize his welcoming ceremony.
