Suddenly the Graxnix come through one of the Chronal Interface's and start killing everyone. Majenta returns to her office and prepares to pack up and leave.

Characters
Continuity
- Since The Doctor is by himself, it is probably set between Voyage of the Damned and Partners in Crime, since it was published after the final Martha Jones strip, though it could also take place between The Runaway Bride and Smith and Jones or even between Journey's End and The Next Doctor. This is the first DWM comic strip featuring the Tenth Doctor on his own, the second being Thinktwice.
- Majenta Pryce joins the TARDIS as a companion from Thinktwice.
