Part 1

Hargreaves narrates his daily tasks aboard the ship to himself.

The Doctor, Nyssa and Tegan hear a loud distress signal coming through the TARDIS console. They lock on and travel to the source. They arrive and step outside, only to be greeted by a Hargreaves, the ship's computer and valet.

Tegan wonders off, and looks outside the ship's viewscreen. They appear to be near a black hole as explained by Hargreaves. Despite the momentary distraction, the Doctor asks Hargreaves why he launched the distress signal and Hargreaves reveals that a little while ago his crew just disappeared. They hear a scream but Hargeaves tells them to ignore it as it is an ephemeral echo, so least he claims. They go to investigate anyway.

They arrive at the source of the noise but they meet Hargreaves again, and it turns out Hargreaves is the ship's central computer and simply takes over the robot body closest to the person requesting service. They ask him about the noise and he assures them that they are corporeal, not real. They look around and ask him about the plant life, it seems to be growing at an unrealistically unheard of rate. The Doctor and Tegan go to find something else but Nyssa notices writing on the plants. Tegan and the Doctor are off discussing the origins of the ship when they hear Nyssa scream. They run back and find she got stabbed by a plant she was trying to inspect. The Doctor worries about poison and infection and Hargreaves directs Nyssa to the medical bay to get the injury inspected and mended while they hear another scream and the Doctor and Tegan go back to investigate.

The Doctor and Tegan find nothing but they still wonder why there is no one aboard the ship. Nyssa arrives in the medical bay and the medical robot begins to treat her when suddenly she feels a ripple running through the ship while Tegan and the Doctor feel it too. They hear a voice and think they see a woman running away. They make chase but can't find her. Tegan then sees it again and they make chase, finally cornering their "ghost". Before they can catch up, Hargreaves notifies the Doctor over the system speakers that Nyssa has "disappeared". Nyssa awakens somewhere but cannot find Hargreaves. Hargreaves, Tegan and the Doctor discuss what could have happened and decide to retrace steps. Nyssa finds the gardener robot but it does not remember her from before. She explains her predicament and it explains that she can use the intercom to contact them. She does, and they decide to meet up in the garden but when they do she is not there although she claims she is. Suddenly the ship shakes and the power fades causing Hargreaves to shut down. Nyssa, meanwhile, simultaneously feels the shake, but has lost communication with the Doctor. She is found by Hargreaves who again does not recognize her. She argues with him and asks what happened but he claims that nothing she says is true. Suddenly, Nyssa becomes frightened as she is approached by a strange figure...

Part 2

Hagreaves narrates his day and then reintroduces himself to the Doctor and Tegan, who inform Hargreaves they already know him. The figure who approaches Nyssa takes off the helmet of his environmental hazard suit and introduces himself as Dr. Sergei Akunin. He asks if she is part of the rescue team to which she reveals she is not. She explains what had happened and shows him her injury, so he says they will go back to his lab so he can have a better look at it and treat it, after which they will try and find her companions. Tegan and the Doctor discuss with Hargreaves what to do next, they are confused as he claimed there was a life-sign earlier which they thought was Nyssa but Hargreaves claims he has no recollection of. Hargreaves prints a list of last known locations of crew members at the Doctor's behest, hoping to visit and see if they can deduce some pattern that may help them find Nyssa. They decide to split up. Nyssa and Dr. Akunin go back to his lab where he explains he has healed his ship mates but suddenly Nyssa's legs begin to feel numb. The Doctor and Hargreaves discuss the crew and the doctor wonders why the ghost of Jennings was in pain. Hargreaves mentions that the ergo sphere damaged the ship causing the crewmemebrs . Nyssa is taken to the lab and sedated by Dr. Akunin who reveals there is no actual cure and Nyssa falls unconscious. Tegan informs the doctor over the intercom what she's seeing Jennings' ghost do but ends up in a dangerous part of the ship. The Doctor warns her to return but ignores this and pursues the ghost. Nyssa awakens and asks Hargreaves to release her from the restraints but Hargreaves cannot because Dr. Akunin is in charge. Nyssa lets herself out and convinces Hargreaves to help her. The Doctor realizes that the crew is further forward in time then they currently are and informs Hargreaves that he cannot remember because each time an ergo storm occurs he reboots but the earliest point he can reboot from is much earlier than the 7 days ago he thought because the overgrowth of the plants has messed with the ship's systems. The Doctor discovers the ship has been orbiting the black hole for fifty years by checking Hargreaves' logs. Just then Tegan realizes the moss is growing on her and the Doctor tells her not to move as it's making it worse, the Doctor likens it to quicksand. He asks Hargreaves to do someting but Hargreaves cannot so the Doctor sets off to rescue her himself. Nyssa tries to escape Dr. Akunin with Hargreaves's help. She hides from him but he continues to look for her. He explaisn out loud that her fate was sealed the moment she touched the plant. He explains he saw it happen to his crew-mates and that he is just trying to help, albeit in a mencing way. Nyssa escapes the room that he had trapped her in. Tegan, still stuck in the parasitic moss, is approached by a strange creature and she alerts the Doctor over the intercom. Nyssa arrives at the end of the ship and has nowhere to escape to except back and is cornered by Dr. Akunin when suddenly somehting happens.

The Doctor tries to calm Tegan as the creature draws nearer to her but they all feel another ergo storming coming. It passes and he manages to get to Tegan's location but she is gone. He then checks for the TARDIS since she was near it but that has disappeared as well. Nyssa awakens after the ergo storm and is greeted by a rebooted Hargreaves who does not know her . She notices that Dr. Akunin has disappeared. Hargreaves explains that there is another life-form aboard the ship to Nyssa and reveals it is Captain Maynard. The Doctor catches Hargreaves up and explains that the black hole outside is collapsing and pulling the ship closer to the event horizon. He calculates that the ship will be destroyed in less than two hours...

Part 3

Tegan awakens and asks Hargreaves where everyone is but Hargreaves explains there are no other life forms aboard except her. She also notices the TARDIS is gone. Hargreaves brings Nyssa to see Captain Maynard. She orders him to take her out of sleep stasis. The Doctor has Hargreaves give him readings of life-forms and he deduces that they seem to be further forward or backward in time almost as if Tegan was in two places at once. The Doctor notes that whenever Nyssa replied she always seemed a few seconds farther back but this means she is much farther back. The Doctor decides they need to go back in time to save her and reckons he needs to test a theory, despite Hargreaves' confusion. Tegan is encountered by a crew member who helps scrape the moss off and explains that she must be displaced in time by the time storm. Lt Maurizio Savinio explains what had happened to all the crew members and that he knows what's happening because of the time storms.

Nyssa talks with Captain Maynard. She disbelives Nyssa, thinking she is accusing Dr. Akunin and places her under arrest. The Doctor and Hargreaves find writing on one of the walls but cannot translate it. The try retrace some patterns.

-caleb constellation

-delahay inverse cube law ????

-time tracks are to time what parallel dimensions are to space-time they run aside like grooves on a record; skip a groove and travel exponeitally

note: actually it doesn't increase expnentially, it would increase the the angle in order to cover the same area with a shorter radius

-sauvinio is implied to have been in love with _____

-henrickson biotech
