[[Eleventh Doctor|The Doctor]], [[Amy Pond]] and [[Rory Williams]] arrive on the commercial asteroid of [[Primo Temp]], a trading world at the centre of the [[Amron Ho galaxy]]. The Doctor is on a quest to buy some time. Two [[Gnaa]] traders, [[Jakrit]] and [[Praal]], are trying to sell a tachyon-drive unit from a Horologic-class history cruiser — the last one in existence, found in a time pocket on the edge of the [[Kolox Nebula|Skrawn Inheritance]]. | [[Eleventh Doctor|The Doctor]], [[Amy Pond]] and [[Rory Williams]] arrive on the commercial [[asteroid]] of [[Primo Temp]], a [[trading]] world at the centre of the [[Amron Ho galaxy]].

The Doctor rubbishes their claims that it has been refurbished and fitted with a brand new [[Zeiton-7]] crystal. When Praal offers to demonstrate it with a trip twenty minutes back in time, they discover that the Zeiton 7 crystal is cracked: a crack that appears to be centuries old! The Doctor suddenly appears, his absence only just being noticed, and explains that when the machine was being demonstrated he used it to go back further in time. | The Doctor rubbishes their claims that it has been refurbished and fitted with a brand new [[Zeiton-7]] crystal.

Returning to the point when the ship first crashed, the Doctor used his sonic screwdriver to shatter the crystal and return to the present failed demonstration, finding the last tachyon-drive unit now properly decommissioned. On the way back to the TARDIS, Amy poses the question, "How could the Doctor have taken the TARDIS back with him when he used the travel unit in order to return?", to which the Doctor replies that he doesn't intend to reveal all his secrets! | Returning to the point when the ship first crashed, the Doctor used his [[sonic screwdriver]] to shatter the crystal and return to the present failed demonstration, finding the last tachyon-drive unit now properly decommissioned.
