The Doctor and Jamie have landed in Prague. As they head off for some sightseeing, they encounter an ugly creature that the Doctor identifies as a [[Hallanian]]. It chases them, and as they run away they encounter [[Russian]] [[tank]]s. One shoots at them, but nothing happens. The Doctor searches through a history book of Prague for an explanation, but the pages start to crumble to dust. The landscape surrounding them changes, and they find themselves first in the [[10th century]], then in the [[18th century]]. | The Doctor and Jamie have landed in Prague.

Prague's past history is being erased around them, and the random pattern suggests one thing to the Doctor — a [[Doredsor]]. Doredsors eat time, though they are usually found in the centres of [[Galaxy|galaxies]]. They search for it and finally locate it. The Doctor contrives a communication device using his [[The Doctor's recorder|recorder]] and [[sonic screwdriver]]. The Doredsor is dying and there is nothing the Doctor can do about it. | Prague's past history is being erased around them, and the random pattern suggests one thing to the Doctor — a [[Doredsor]].

Jamie, however, insists that the Doredsor deserves a funeral, so they use [[the TARDIS]] to bring it to a star. As it dies, the Doctor and Jamie wait with it, with the Doctor continually sending electrical pulses to the creature to reassure it that it is not alone. | Jamie, however, insists that the Doredsor deserves a funeral, so they use [[the TARDIS]] to bring it to a star.
