Admitting you did something stupid. That’s the first step to a lot of things. Too many to list specifics. Reply
But if you turn it forward you’ll actually move through 6:13. It will be right for a tiny fraction of a second. You want to turn it backwards. Reply
The clock is ahead of real time before Millies interference, and behind afterwards. Therefore she got the method right. Reply
Forward or back, the hands touched the current time as she went by. Ratimir is correct, at that time it was correct. If she’d moved it to just short of the current time, and it was a PM time so wouldn’t be repeated, she’d have avoided that moment. Reply

That clock has no way to tell the diference between AM and PM.
It’s hard to get those big old analog clocks nowadays.
I don’t think it really counts as “stopped” if you keep moving it.
