Summary[[edit] | [edit source]]
The Doctor and Peri are having coffee in Prague when the city falls into a temporary autonomous zone. The Doctor explains that, under normal circumstances, this would only last a few minutes, then things would return to normal. However, there is a being, calling himself Anarchy, who is trying to destroy Prague.
The Doctor tries to talk Anarchy out of what he is doing, but with no success. He then hits upon the idea that Anarchy, who also calls himself Entropy, should follow his natural course. When he does so, Prague returns to normal.
