1 on time: "To be on time (for a meeting)" is to arrive at the meeting in a punctual manner, or at the scheduled meeting time. Bruno instructs Brian to "make sure (he's) on time" for his appointment with Harold Warbuckle.
2 late: "(To arrive) late (to an appointment)" is to arrive after the scheduled time of the appointment, or after it was supposed to begin. Bruno informs Brian that he "will be running a bit late" for the meeting with Warbuckle. "To run late" or "to be running late" is to be behind schedule. For example: I am running very late because of the traffic downtown. Please start dinner without me.

on time: To be "on time" means to be punctual or arrive at the specified time. For example: Brian Jones is an ideal employee because he always arrives at work on time. Jean wasn't "on time" for his first English lesson because he arrived 55 minutes late!
at hour: The term "at hour" does not exist in English.
in time: To be "in time (for something)" means to be "early enough (for something)". For example: I'll be back in time for the meeting. Unlike, "on time", the term "in time" needs more of a context to make sense. For example: I'll understand if you're late for the aperitif, but please try to arrive in time for the meal.
out of time: To be "out of time" means to have no more time available. For example: I'm sorry, you're out of time, the examination is now finished - please stop writing!
