At a spaceport on planet [[Inter Minor]], travelling aliens [[Vorg]] and [[Shirna]] arrive and set up the [[Miniscope]], a device inside which miniaturised creatures exist inside miniature versions of their natural habitats. Although Vorg's intentions aren't hostile, the natives greet him with suspicion and they deny him an entrance visa. | At a spaceport on planet [[Inter Minor]], travelling aliens [[Vorg]] and [[Shirna]] arrive and set up the [[Miniscope]], a device inside which miniaturised creatures exist inside miniature versions of their natural habitats.

Meanwhile, the [[the Doctor's TARDIS|TARDIS]] materialises on the planet [[Metebelis | Meanwhile, the [[the Doctor's TARDIS|TARDIS]] materialises on the planet [[Metebelis III]] - so [[the Doctor]] says, but when he and [[Jo Grant]] explore their surroundings, they discover that they are in fact aboard the cargo ship ''[[SS Bernice]]'' as it sails across the Indian Ocean in 1926. The Doctor is sure that they are not on [[Earth]], and it seems something is afoot when a plesiosaur rises from the sea. The Doctor and Jo meet [[Daly|Major Daly]] and his daughter [[Claire Daly]], passengers terrified by the plesiosaur but who then forget about it. When the pair are caught by officer [[John Andrews]], they are imprisoned, accused of being stowaways. Confined to a cabin, Jo notices a discrepancy: a clock in the room has gone back by over an hour in a few minutes. After escaping, they notice that Andrews, Daly and his daughter are repeating things they said and did when they met them before, and have forgotten about the meeting. The Doctor becomes interested in a mysterious hatch made of an alien alloy, and goes back to the TARDIS to retrieve a [[magnetic core extractor]] to open the hatch. As they reach the TARDIS, the Doctor and Jo are stunned as a giant hand swoops down out of nowhere and grabs the travel machine. | ||
