Upon doing so, the Captain asks the Doctors to keep an eye on his family, introducing himself as Archibald Hamish Lethbridge-Stewart, an ancestor of the Doctor's close friend the Brigadier. The First Doctor assures he will do so, the Twelfth Doctor confirming they did. The Testinmony remarks the Captain will not remember the incident and a perception filter will ensure the Doctors are not noticed once time restarts. As time resumes, the Doctors watch as soldiers on both sides begin singing "Silent Night". Soon, each side disarms their weapons and enters the battle field, leading the Captain and the German soldier to withdraw their weapons and make peace. The Twelfth Doctor explains to the First that he deliberately shifted the Captain's timeline to the start of the Christmas truce, to ensure his life would be spared. | Upon doing so, the Captain asks the Doctors to keep an eye on his family, introducing himself as Archibald Hamish Lethbridge-Stewart, an ancestor of the Doctor's close friend the Brigadier.

With the Captain saved, the First Doctor informs the Twelfth that he is prepared to regenerate and bids him good-bye before returning to his TARDIS. As the soldiers play football, draw and spend the day together, the Twelfth Doctor watches on, saluting the Captain - who briefly bypasses the perception filter, but dismisses him and returns to his trench. Now alone with Bill's avatar, the Doctor adamantly contends she is not the genuine Bill, only for her avatar to explain that memories are what define a person. To help him understand, the avatar restores the Doctor's memories of Clara Oswald, bringing him joy, before they are joined by Nardole's avatar. The Doctor refuses to give the avatars testimony of his life, stating he must be left alone before he changes. They respect his wish and leave after he embraces them both. The Doctor then returns to the TARDIS and, after arguing with the TARDIS, decides to regenerate, but not before relaying advice to his next incarnation. He collapses as he does so but manages to return to his feet: "One more lifetime won't kill me". With that, he regenerates, igniting the console room as his face changes. | With the Captain saved, the First Doctor informs the Twelfth that he is prepared to regenerate and bids him good-bye before returning to his TARDIS.

Smoke fills the console room, the Twelfth Doctor's ring falling from his hand. As the smoke clears, the new Thirteenth Doctor examines thier reflection, finding they are a female: "Oh, brilliant". She presses a button before the TARDIS suffers multiple failures. Tumbling out of the ship, the Doctor observes the console room explode before the TARDIS dematerialises, as she plummets towards the Earth below.... | Smoke fills the console room, the Twelfth Doctor's ring falling from his hand.
