[[Guards are protecting a golden cup inside a museum, later to be identified as the Cup of [[wikipedia:Athelstan of England|Athelstan]], worth 18 million [[Pound Sterling|pounds]]. Lady [[Christina de Souza]] then lowers herself from the roof, and replaces the cup with a mechanical [[wikipedia:Maneki Neko|Japanese lucky cat]]); when the guards finally turn around at the sound of her releasing her winch on the roof, it waves at them in a mocking fashion. As the alarms go off, she runs out to the street to see someone being arrested, and she says, "Sorry, lover" to her presumed accomplice.

She then takes a back route onto the main road, where she frantically looks for a way out as police move in around her, although unaware of her presence. She runs onto a 200 bus to Victoria, where she exchanges her diamond earrings for a bus ride. Soon afterwards, a man wearing trainers, who's face we aren't shown, comes onto the bus, and seems to use psychic paper on the [[wikipedia:Oyster Card|Oyster Card]] scanner. He then sits down opposite Lady Christina, and is shown to be [[Tenth Doctor|The Doctor]].

He then sits down opposite Lady Christina, and is shown to be [[Tenth Doctor|The Doctor]].  After some enjoying a chocolate Easter egg and some cursory small talk, he receives an alert from the [[rhondium sensor]] in his pocket that the particles he's been looking for have been detected.


The police are still after Christina, since they know she has stolen the Cup of Athelstan, but whilst chasing the bus through a tunnel, the police witness it disappear in front of their eyes; startled, they set a perimeter around the area. Meanwhile, the bus passes through a warp into a world covered in desert: planet San Helios, apparently completely deserted. The bus is wrecked in the process. By the time it arrives at the planet the driver proclaims it unmovable.
