The [[Twelfth Doctor]] tries to convince [[Clara Oswald|Clara]] to come with him for a day sightseeing via [[The Doctor's TARDIS|the TARDIS]], but she is about to go on a date with [[Danny Pink]]. As she is about to leave, the TARDIS phone rings, despite both knowing that very few beings in the universe have access to that. The Doctor goes to answer the phone, and suddenly the two find themselves in a strange chamber suffering from memory loss along with two others, an [[augmented human]], [[Psi]], and a [[Mutant human|mutant human]], [[Saibra]]. Both have also suffered memory loss, with the likely culprit - [[Memory worm|memory worms]] - wiggling around on the table. A briefcase on the table opens to reveal plans by "The Architect", who instructs them to rob the [[Bank of Karabraxos]], the most impregnable bank vault in the universe with numerous levels of security. There's no chance of backing out either - they're already ''in'' the bank and guards are trying to break into the room - and Psi downloads the instructions into his head as the group flees. The pursuit is slowed when the guards handle the memory worms, unaware of their abilities. | The [[Twelfth Doctor]] tries to convince [[Clara Oswald|Clara]] to come with him for a day sightseeing via [[The Doctor's TARDIS|the TARDIS]], but she is about to go on a date with [[Danny Pink]].

The Doctor, Clara, Psi, and Saibra continue to follow the Architect's plan, finding more cases with useful items left by their mysterious boss as they get closer to the main vaults. At one point, they collect six devices whose purpose the Doctor claims he does not know, but Saibra points out he's lying - having had so many faces, she knows how to read people better than most. The Doctor is forced to admit the devices are an "exit strategy". | The Doctor, Clara, Psi, and Saibra continue to follow the Architect's plan, finding more cases with useful items left by their mysterious boss as they get closer to the main vaults.
