Leisure
- Ryan suggests the Doctor take them to Disneyland, or "cool, future, other planet Disneyland".
- The Doctor recalls how Graham lost a Bevivian game of chance at the amusement park they'd previously visited.
- Graham, Ryan, and Yaz each have conflicting memories of what happened at the amusement park:
- Graham recalled that Ryan had gone into an "alien haunted house" full of "actual ghosts", where he was in danger of becoming one.
- Ryan remembered encountering an "alien clown", with a trick flower that sprayed Yaz with a dangerous substance that they "barely" found the antidote for in time.
- Yaz's version of events saw the Doctor play a test of strength carnival game, which led to her being put in their gladiator games.
Miscellaneous
- The Doctor acted as a gladiator at some point, but "decades" before the scenario that Yaz remembered.
- Ryan wonders if Yaz would be okay with wearing the festive-looking neurological tracker because of her Muslim faith.
- Ryan previously had a maths teacher called Ms. Henderson.
- A human's sense of smell is linked to their memory, as are a Time Lord's.
Notes
Original print details
- Part 1:
- PREVIOUSLY...
- Whirling through time and space, the Doctor and her friends - Yaz, Ryan and Graham - took some time off from thwarting nefarious alien plots to enjoy some well-earned leisure time. But theme parks on distant planets aren't always what they seem, and the gang were soon saving victims of a crooked carnival con. Everything is right in the universe again - or so they think...
- NEXT TIME!
- The Doctor and friends gain an unexpected ally. Together they must stop Mr. Henderson - but who exactly is he? And what is he really up to?
Continuity
- The Doctor recalls the events of COMIC: Meet the Fam!, but Graham, Ryan, and Yaz all have differing memories of the stories' events.

- Ryan suggests going to Disneyland. He previously asked the Doctor if her psychic paper could get them into the park. (COMIC: Meet the Fam!)
- Yasmin's Muslim faith is brought up. (TV: Rosa, Demons of the Punjab)
- The Doctor wears her rainbow-coloured scarf. (TV: Resolution)
- The Doctor and Baxter refer to Santa as "Jeff". (TV: A Christmas Carol)
