However, as [[Jack Harkness]] stated, the plans wouldn't have actually worked, but with her technical genius, Tosh altered the design during her construction of it so that it ''would'' work. Before her capture by [[UNIT]], Milton reneged on the deal, testing the modulator on Tosh's mother. ([[TW]]: ''[[Fragments]]'') | ||
