A group of Time Technology Assessors representing the four Temporal Powers discovers a [[Timeonic Fusion Device]] on the Third Moon of [[Kikrit]]. Once discovered, one of the assessors reveals herself to be a member of the [[Free Time]] movement named [[Nepenthe]]. She then steals the device. | |||
Back on Gallifrey, the situation is described to President Romana. Braxiatel remembers secret research done a few centuries ago regarding a Timeonic Fusion Device, but he admits that the work was unsuccessful and the device dismantled. | |||
Romana then recruits Leela, Torvald, and K9 to go to the planet Gryben in order to investigate Free Time. There, they encounter [[Arkadian]], who attests to having knowledge of the organization. Arkadian agrees to give the information in exchange for an audience with Romana. | |||
Leela, K9, and Torvald go to the location given by Arkadian to meet Nepenthe. There Leela learns that the Timelords wanted the weapon for themselves. Leela also discovers that Nepenthe's leitenant is actually a Monan in disguise. The Monan sends a signal to his people stating the the mission has been compromised, prompting the High Monan to send troops to Gryben. | |||
Nepenthe then activates the device. In desperation, Romana goes to Gryben under the guise of being Arkadian's hostage. She offers herself in exchange for the device. She then realizes that the device may be a bluff, and lets it count down to zero. The device then disarms and disappears into thin air, leaving the threat of the device still hanging despite the immediate relief. | |||
Leela and Romana suspect that a Time Lord group unhappy with Romana's progressive reforms was responsible for the whole incident. Leela then agrees to become Romana's bodyguard, with K9 as chief of security. | |||
