At Café Demel, Mary marvels at her sudden new-found ability to communicate in German and even read newspapers. The first thing that catches her eye is an article about "the second eyeless murder on the [[Ringstrasse]]". But then she notices the date on the newspaper, [[11 September]] [[1873]], which means that they did travel in time after all and which explains the absence of Samson and Gemma. | At Café Demel, Mary marvels at her sudden new-found ability to communicate in German and even read newspapers.

At the Vienna Exposition, Count Wittenmeier loses to the Silver Turk at [[chequers]]. He is so distressed by the loss of his loan that he tries to attack Stahlbaum and is thrown out by [[Heinz (The Silver Turk)|Heinz]]. | At the Vienna Exposition, Count Wittenmeier loses to the Silver Turk at [[chequers]].

Upon realising that this is 1873, the year of the Vienna Exposition, the Doctor brings Mary there, although he has to rely on her paying both at the café and the entrance fee to the exposition. They hear Drossel inviting the public to a puppet performance at the [[Marionettenburg]] and promising that the puppets have "no strings attached" but decide to look at more famous attractions, including the [[Rotunda]] and the [[Industrial Palace]]. Meanwhile Drossel recognises the distressed Count Wittenmeier and invites him to his tent. Drossel says that he has also been wronged by Stahlbaum and seems to ask for the count's help in revenge. He then whistles to call [[Columbinetta]], a puppet moving on her own, and asks her to bring his watchdog, whom he calls "his burden, his curse". Before the watchdog attacks the count, Drossel states that his theatre is "out of this world". | Upon realising that this is 1873, the year of the Vienna Exposition, the Doctor brings Mary there, although he has to rely on her paying both at the café and the entrance fee to the exposition.
