After an encounter with {{Roberts}} in [[San Francisco]] [[1999]], the Eighth Doctor finishes reading ''The Time Machine'' (a book written by his old friend [[H.G. Wells]]). After he checks the Eye of Harmony in his TARDIS, he falls prey to a final trap set by his old enemy, the Master, which erases all of his memory. The only fact he knows for certain is that he is called "the Doctor" - but Doctor who? His instincts tell him to "trust the TARDIS", which immediately lands. | |||
He has landed at a scrapyard at [[76 Totter's Lane]], [[London]] in 1997, where he encounters a young lady by the name of Sam Jones, who is being accused by local drug dealers, led by [[Baz Bailey]], of "grassing" them over to the police. Having saved Sam from these insidious characters, who were intending to force Sam into taking drugs to get her addicted, the Doctor falls foul of the local police who promptly charge him with possession and selling the cocaine he has confiscated from the thugs. Sam tells her two teachers, who have noticed her lateness, and takes them back to the junkyard to verify the story. The Doctor escapes in the confusion of Bailey's desperate attack on the local police station. He runs back into the TARDIS and it dematerialises - taking the cocaine with him to dispose of it safely. This leaves Sam alone, defenceless against the knife-wielding druggies... | He has landed at a scrapyard at [[76 Totter's Lane]], [[London]] in 1997, where he encounters a young lady by the name of Sam Jones, who is being accused by local drug dealers, led by [[Baz Bailey]], of "grassing" them over to the police.
