Summary/Abstract: The paper discusses the modal-tensed response to van Inwagen’s objection against Lewis’s indexical theory of actuality. Yagisawa’s proposal is shown to fail in its intentions mainly on account of the inherent problems of modal dimensionalism in general that make the response either argumentatively irrelevant or question-begging.
