Summary
Charley falls asleep by reading a book in the TARDIS, when she awakes she is surprised to discover that she is no longer on board the TARDIS, but is now aboard an airship. Wandering around the airship, Charley finds a bar filled with many people, talking to the bartender, Charley learns that the passengers are all on a journey. While awaiting the arrival of the Doctor, Charley begins to talk to the people in the bar, each of them tell them the stories of how they came aboard the airship. Charley comes to understand that all of the passengers had been removed from their own timelines in order to protect the Web of Time.
Charley then wakes up back in the TARDIS to find the Doctor waiting for her. The Doctor tells Charley that the airship was the heart of the time vortex, and since no time passes there, the passengers will never know that they’re in limbo, forever heading towards a destination that they will never reach. The Doctor tells Charley that it was the best solution he could come up with, as they could not be permitted to cause further damage to the Web of Time. The Doctor and Charley then set off in the TARDIS for another adventure, leaving Charley with a better understanding of the person she is travelling with.
