After navigating through the corridor, they arrive back in the TARDIS, where the Doctor adds the new artefact to the other one. As the object begins ticking like a clock, River has a brainstorm; it is an [[Eternity Clock]]. There are notes in her diary which she has no memory of ever making on one. The Doctor begins to understand the Clock can rewrite history. The notes in the diary are 'residue' from an encounter erased from River's timeline. In addition, the Clock seems to be cataloging all of time, ordering and recording events like a 'hard drive'. | After navigating through the corridor, they arrive back in the TARDIS, where the Doctor adds the new artefact to the other one.

'' | The Doctor and River next travel to [[2106]], where the [[New Dalek Paradigm]] has invaded and destroyed London. The Doctor realizes the Daleks have put most of London in a [[time lock]], rendering it unreachable. River states that, back in 1561, the Silence had a laboratory that could contain a time capsule. Taking turns with the vortex manipulator, the Doctor and River travel back to 1561 and infiltrate the Silence stronghold located in the church. They find the time capsule, which is disguised as the church steeple. The Doctor begins to hotwire the alien tech; however, the Silence arrive and try to fight them, forcing River to kill them to keep them off the Doctor. Once the time capsule is hacked, a third piece of the Eternity Clock is obtained, and the time capsule flies off into the [[time vortex]]. | ||
The capsule crashes in the center of the Dalek stronghold, which is the same office building the Cybermen invaded in 2012. They sneak past the Daleks and into the Dalek Command Node. A ten minute timer begins - the Doctor and River have to make their way to the flag ship before the alarm goes off. The Doctor, piece by piece, deactivates the controls to the time lock, then activates the Dalek transmat which sends them up to the Dalek Flagship. | |||
Within the flagship, the Doctor realizes that the Daleks are using the Eternity Clock to make the time lock bigger, pushing it out until the entire planet is locked and under control of the Dalek Empire; once they perfect the technology to time lock entire planets, they would be unstoppable. The Doctor and River take an elevator through the ship, past the Dalek armies, to the chamber of the [[Dalek Emperor]], who states that the Doctor's time is over and the Daleks are "the new [[Time Lord|lords of time]]." The Doctor and River formulate a plan; River will blast the Emperor Dalek's eyestalk, stunning it and keeping it from attacking, while the Doctor [[Reverse the polarity|reverses the polarity]] oh the Dalek Matrix, which deactivates the time lock once and for all, and releases the final piece of the Eternity Clock from its force field. Once the Doctor has the piece in his hands, a new time corridor opens up, taking the Doctor and River back to the TARDIS, and wiping the alien invasions which were not supposed to happen from history. | |||
Back in the TARDIS, the clock reassembles itself, and the time storm stops. However, the Doctor's equipment picks up a temporal signal - one that the interference from the fragmented Eternity Clock was drowning out, and one that the clock is now trying to track down. River realizes that the Eternity Clock and the TARDIS are synching together, and that when they do, the TARDIS will travel to find that point in time. They barely have time to state this before the TARDIS takes off on its own; unable to stop it, the Doctor and River cling to the controls and yell "GERONIMO!" | |||
