Summary
Part one
On the planet Acantha, the Thirteenth Doctor, Graham, Ryan and Yaz walk along discussing the Beatles, where Graham is saddened to learn that the Doctor has used up all the dates to see them. Yaz asks the Doctor how the planet was named if there is no intelligent life, to which the Doctor says that Acantha is rich in minerals so it has attracted a lot of attention over the years. Graham finds a collapsed mine near which Ryan gets shocked by static electricity which the Doctor thinks is odd.
Suddenly, a ship hovers over them telling them to stay where they are, and the Doctor discovers the ship contains Mobox. She tries to introduce herself but is cut off by captain R'Takk, demanding they explain what they are doing in the restricted area. Before the Doctor can reply, a mag-storm occurs and kills one of R'Takk's men, with the blast knocking Ryan off a cliff. R'Takk and the other Mobox grab the Doctor, Graham and Yaz and load them into the ship before flying off. Graham demands they go back for Ryan, but R'Takk refuses and tells his pilot, M'Kurr, to get back to Hub Town. The Doctor asks about the storms and R'Takk explains how they believe they are caused by the local magnetic field.
Later, at Hub Town, the Doctor learns the colony is run by both humans and Mobox, while R'Takk informs the trio that when the colony's owners, Icarus Incorporated, ran into issues, they sold the planet to the Mobox Empire. Before R'Takk can arrest them, however, the Doctor brandishes her psychic paper and demands to see the Mobox in charge. They go to see Governor K'Lass who welcomes them in. He introduces his assistant, Rodney Minto, and Graham asks him to find Ryan. K'Lass agrees and tells R'Takk to take Graham and Yaz to find him, but wishes the Doctor to stay, much to her disapproval.
While on the search for Ryan, the group run into another mag-storm. With the ship being hit, M'Kurr declares they need to lighten the ship's load to stay in the air. R'Takk, Graham and Yaz throw everything they can out of the airlock, but M'Kurr informs them it is not enough. R'Takk then turns to Graham and Yaz and apologises, before seemingly incinerating them. He stares at the spot where they used to be as M'Kurr congratulates him on saving them.

Continuity
- Graham asks the Doctor to take him to see the Beatles, but she is unable to because she has "used up all the dates". The Doctor has, indeed, seen the Beatles many times before: the Sixth Doctor partied with them (PROSE: Gone Too Soon), the Eleventh Doctor and Amy Pond met one of their members, Ringo Starr (GAME: City of the Daleks), and the Tenth Doctor took Martha Jones (COMIC: Signs of Life) and Donna Noble to see them on stage.
