*[[The Retreat]] was a progressive psychiatric institution in the late [[20th century]] which inhabited the same grounds as a [[19th century|19th]]-early 20th century asylum, known as Mausolus House.  In the late 20th century, the [[Eighth Doctot|The Doctor]], [[Trix]] and [[Fitz Kreiner|Fitz]] investigated the history of the place, and discover that the original structure had burned in a massive fire in 1903.  While conducting this research, the Doctor also posed as Dr. John Smith, and provided guidance to a suicidal patient called [[Caroline Darnell|Laska]].  He believed her mental problems — and those of the other patients — were being greatly emphasized by he [[Sholem-Luz]], time-sensitives who directly fed off mental anguish.  The Doctor helped Laska break free of Sholem-Luz control by luring the Sholem-Luz back through the time tunnels they had created to the exact time and place of the fire which destroyed the original structure.  Unfortunately, he could only accomplish this ''without'' the TARDIS.  Stranded, the Doctor had no choice but to "wait" a century until he caught up with himself.  Thus, in a move reminiscent of something [[Captain Jack Harkness]] would do,  the Doctor allowed himself to sleep through the rest of the 20th century in a  sarcophagus in the chapel on the grounds of the mental institution.  In a sense, then, The Retreat was the site of the Doctor's longest-known stay in hospital.  ([[EDA]]: ''[[The Sleep of Reason]]'')
