The next day in court the Doctor pulls out the gun and aims at Peri, explaining that it is tagged with a genetic signature which the bullet uses to find the target when fired. He also explains that this was why the professor's assitant was behind Peri: so that he could fire through her at the professor and make it look like she, being the one with the gun, had done it. He then tells the assitant how he is currently wearing a cat brooch doused in chronal energy and with a drop of his blood on it, meaning that if he fires, the bullet will kill him, not Peri. Under huge pressure, the assistant confesses and is taken away, while Peri and the Doctor leave, the Doctor explaining that the gun wouldn't have work, and that he was bluffing, a bluff which the assistant luckily took. | The next day in court the Doctor pulls out the gun and aims at Peri, explaining that it is tagged with a genetic signature which the bullet uses to find the target when fired.

He recalls the time he and Ace ended up in the war of Angrivan Seven, which was declared a non-intervention site by the Time Lords. Someone had given the Strykes a Gallifreyan virus to use over the Marats, and the Doctor must stop it. They are captured by the Strykes, but manage to escape due to an air strike. They meet a Marat, who takes them to the sick Marats infected by the Strkes new bioweapon. The Doctor meets with Doctor Treykan, and gives her the antidote to the plague, hidden in his umbrella. Then he seems to talk to the current Doctor, telling him to fight to survive. | He recalls the time he and Ace ended up in the war of Angrivan Seven, which was declared a non-intervention site by the Time Lords.
