While Susan heads off with a group of children and their dog, the Doctor enjoys the peace and quite of the sleepy town. However, the atmosphere at Mrs Hutchings’ boarding house is soon disrupted by the arrival of a mixed-race family, the residents looking on disfavourably as they are joined Mr and Mrs Atkins and their half-cast son, Craig.
 
After the formidable Miss Lancaster leaves the boarding house in a fit of temper, the Doctor notices that the Atkinses are behaving rather oddly, and that Craig makes anachronistic references to Game Boys and pizza. The old man confronts his fellow guest, Mr. Prentice, who is in fact another member of the Doctor’s own race; Prentice enjoyed the tranquillity of Keelmouth so much that he used his advanced technology to keep the boarding house and its immediate surroundings in 1933, while outside it is now [[1999]].
 
When Prentice refuses to restore the house to its correct time, the Doctor convinces Craig to pretend to have whooping cough, forcing Prentice to turn off the time field so that the boy can receive the modern-day cure. While the residents are returned to their correct time, the Atkinses are sent back to 1999; Susan then returns to join the Doctor, and together they set off for the late Twentieth Century.
