[[Eleanor Woods]] is in hospital because she occasionally passes out. When she does, she seems to find herself in a very strange place. The other patients in the ward have the same condition, and one by one they have fallen into [[coma]]s. | [[Eleanor Woods]] is in hospital because she occasionally passes out.

One day she has a visitor, who introduces himself as the Doctor. He is actually here to visit his friend Jamie, but since Jamie is in a coma, the Doctor makes friends with Eleanor. She tells him that the hospital personnel won't let them contact their families, and that no one has had a visitor. | One day she has a visitor, who introduces himself as the Doctor.

During the Doctor's visit, Eleanor passes out and in her "dream" she encounters Jamie. When she wakes, the [[ward sister]] is shooing the Doctor out. However, when the sister is gone, the Doctor comes back in through the window. He waits with Eleanor, and when she passes out again, he grabs her hand. | During the Doctor's visit, Eleanor passes out and in her "dream" she encounters Jamie.

In her "dream", Eleanor sees that the Doctor has come with her. She also notes that the other patients from the ward, including Jamie, are in her dream. The Doctor explains that he's not supposed to be in this place, and if he gets out, maybe he can take the others with him. He pokes a "hole" in the air, and he and Jamie widen it enough for the others to pass through. They all grab hands, but two of the patients, Miss [[Stevenson (Visiting Hours)|Stevenson]] and Mr [[William Scott|Scott]], are too busy arguing. As they argue, Eleanor notices that light seems to drain from Mr Scott, while Miss Stevenson grows brighter. | In her "dream", Eleanor sees that the Doctor has come with her.

The Doctor has Mr [[Gilbert-Jones]] lead everyone out, with himself coming last. As they leave through the rift, Eleanor notices that the two arguing patients are now just shapes of dark and light. | The Doctor has Mr [[Gilbert-Jones]] lead everyone out, with himself coming last.
