A broken woman named Judith Winters is living in a mental institution, where she is visited by Ace, the only person on Earth who knows that Judith was enslaved to a Dalek battle computer during the Shoreditch Incident.

Notes[[edit] | edit source]
- No exact year is given in this story. Judith Winters is described as being about thirty-five years old.
