* The Black Guardian's associate, Djinni, uses a targeting lure, a ''jawaki'', as the Black Guardian calls it, to try to destroy the [[White Guardian]], Prince Omar and [[Abby (The Judgement of Isskar)|Amy]]. However, the Doctor realises that just as the Guardians' powers are diminishing, so are his ideas. This is exactly the same tactic that [[Wrack|Captain Wrack]] used to destroy competing ships in the race for Enlightenment. ([[TV]]: ''[[Enlightenment (TV story)|Enlightenment]]'') Both items used to accomplish this task are pieces of jewellery; here it is Amy's [[necklace]], while in [[TV]]: ''[[Enlightenment (TV story)|Enlightenment]]'', it is Tegan's tiara.
