Restoring a "mini save" to OPEN InDesign cs5 file through InDesign Recivery

Question

using time machine, can I go back to a previously OPEN (not saved) indesign cs5 file to get to the "mini save" of the file? the file was open as time machine was running (overnight)
A tech person didn't save the changes I made to the indesignfile before restarting my computer, so right now on the hard drive there is no recovery data I can use.
Looking in the time machine back-ups, It looks like there is no "cache" in the "library" in any of the time machine saves. (so there is no "InDesign Recovery" file, right?) why not? isn't time machine making an exact copy of my hard drive?

Hi hasvi,
Need Template(.indt), textframes etc for the following script:
var myFolderInd = Folder.selectDialog();
var myFile = myFolderInd.getFiles("*indt");
app.open(myFile)
var myDoc = app.activeDocument;
var myDocName = myDoc.name;
var mySaveFile = app.activeDocument.save(myFolderInd.fsName + "/" + myDocName.split(".indt").join(".indd"));
var myFolderDoc = Folder.selectDialog();
var myFile1 = myFolderDoc.getFiles("*doc");
mySaveFile.pages[0].textFrames[0].place(File(myFile1))
//~ mySaveFile.place(File(myFile1))
app.activeDocument.textPreferences.smartTextReflow = true;
var myPDFFile = new File(mySaveFile.filePath + "/" + mySaveFile.name.split(".indd").join(".pdf"))
myDoc.exportFile(ExportFormat.PDF_TYPE, File("~/Desktop/abc.pdf"));
alert("Process Completed")
