Notes

  • A line of text is misplaced in the recap at the beginning of the third part: "Projected into the future, the Doctor / damaging robot machinery. / But, Amazingly, the planet is ruled by / is tried on a distant planet for accidently / children, and..." (original published text)
    • Apparently coincidentally, the Doctor's speech balloon directly below reads "What nonsense is this?"
