When the Master asked for a pilot so he could use a landship to search for an energy source, which was rumoured to be why Arcking had such mysterious properties, he requested Cole as a pilot, alongside [[Phila]] as a companion, albeit briefly. Upon finding the source, they found that it was sentient. After leaving it, due to it talking to them and refusing to go, their landship was attacked by Daleks, and they were forced to leave it. Phila was killed, and Cole left Arcking with the Master in [[The Master's TARDIS|his TARDIS]].

Cole asked to land on a planet, which was in need of saving, so he could be its saviour. The Master left him at a village, so he could go grow grapes, and Cole was put to work by the villagers. He discovered that the villagers were dying, due to fallout of the [[Last Great Time War|Time War]], so he created a suit which would keep them alive. He managed to get all of the villagers into a suit, but the suits turned them into robotic like creatures, | Cole asked to land on a planet, which was in need of saving, so he could be its saviour. The Master left him at a village, so he could go grow grapes, and Cole was put to work by the villagers, and gradually got romantically involved with a local woman named [[Elidh]]. He discovered that the villagers were slowly dying, due to fallout of the [[Last Great Time War|Time War]], so he created a suit which would keep them alive, using Elidh as a test subject, as she was the one he was most desperate to save. He managed to get all of the villagers into a suit, but discovered to his horror that the suits gradually turned them into robotic-like creatures, obsessed with seeking revenge on the aliens who had poisoned their planet. Eventually the robotic villages turned on him too, as they came to see him as an alien, chasing him across the countryside. Cole was eventually found down by one of his pursuers, but by chance it happened the robotised Elidh, who could dimly recognize him, and still remembering their past romance, she allowed him to escape. Cole rendezvoused with the Master, after which they left the planet. Horrified by what he had done, Cole begged the Master to help him undo his mistake, to which the Master cryptically told Cole not to worry, assuring him that he would take care of it.

The Master took Cole to [[No. 24 Marigold Lane]], [[Stamford Bridge]] in the [[1970s]] where a [[Time Lord]] was keeping the [[Heavenly Paradigm]] under lock and key. | The Master took Cole to [[No. 24 Marigold Lane]], [[Stamford Bridge]] in the [[1970s]] where a [[Time Lord]] agent was keeping the [[Heavenly Paradigm]] under lock and key. The Time Lord agent, posing as a harmless old lady, offered Cole and the Master tea laced with a sedative; Cole fell for the bait and fell asleep after drinking the drugged tea, but the Master, having figured what the agent was trying to do, didn't. Before he knocked the Time Lord agent out, the Master revealed that he needed Cole unconscious for the final part of his plan, so the tea had proved rather convenient. As Cole was unconscious, the Master strapped him to the Paradigm. When Cole came to and asked why he was chained up, the Master revealed that the Paradigm was powered by temporal energy. By plucking Cole out from time and taking him with him in his TARDIS, the Master had adverted Cole's original fate which was to die on Arcking, which had created a paradox. Cole's subsequent actions on the farming planet had saved the local population, at the cost of turning them into a new, aggressive race, when they were all originally meant to die from the fallout; which created not only a paradox, but a paradox powered by another paradox. The Master had in fact groomed Cole into becoming a nexus for a potent amount of temporal energy, which would be enough to power the Paradigm. The Master then prepared to sacrifice Cole to the Paradigm as his usefulness had come to an end, offering him some cold comfort by telling him that - with his erasure from existence - the race he had inadvertently created would also cease to exist. When Cole, as his last act, protested against this callous treatment, the Master coldly reminded him that he previously had agree to make "any" sacrifice in exchange for his help.
