A plot bunny; just imagine if S4 had all possible time travelling versions of Five converged and existing at once? I mean they could, we have very loosey goosey rules on time travel, just think of all the Fives from dif timelines coexisting: (Assuming they somehow don't have the same level of paradox psychosis)
Baby Five: Actually 13, has been there just a few days when they the siblings arrive in S4. Sees his doppelgängers and freaks out. None of the other Fives know what to do with him and it took them embarrassingly long to notice he was there, he is appalled at all of them of course and keeps running away to try and get home.
Our Old-Young Five: As arrived with his siblings, his super competent ass finds all the other Fives in record time and has and absolute aneurysm about their being here. Tries to contain them, everything is an unmitigated nightmare. (He will eventually just give up and try to drink the insanity away after a few months, by which point the siblings have finally noticed there's way too many Fives about the place)
Thirteen going on Sixty Five (as arrived in S1): has been there since last week of March. If the first Five to time travel back and get stuck at thirteen was confused, this one is pretty sure time travel actually broke his mind. Where's the meri tech building? What about the apocalypse? Why didn't it happen? How come the other Five he landed next to has an adult body and he's stuck like this? He spends most of the time trying to rally the siblings (they struggle to know which Five they're dealing with - if they even know there are multiples at first) or find Delores.
Fifty year old Five: They one who time travelled with the correct equation, has been there since last week of March, arriving alongside Thirteen going on Sixty Five. He is smug, being the only adult. He is also trying to solve the apocalypse, being the only sane one clearly. He is also in so much back pain these pubescent clones need to slow down. He is also having to escort his other selves anywhere where a parent would be needed. He's pretty sure Our Five is plotting against him, or all of them. Wishes he'd never met any of them.
Aged Tube Five: Has been there in his paradox room barely surviving since the fifties with some life-extending assistance. Our Five unearths and kidnaps him, keeping him hidden away in the basement / attic / spare room has absolutely not told the other Fives about him, and periodically goes down there to snipe and shout at Tube Five. Tube Five just wants to die in peace.
I think that each of the Fives' stories playing out in different genres that keep awkwardly intermingling as they all coexist in the same house would be hilarious.
There has to be at least one scene where the 3 thirteen year old fives pretend to be triplets and sixty year old five alternatively gets forced to deter CPS or tries to find ways to get them all sent to juvenile detention centres.
