Lizbeth asks Norton what day it is and, although initially surprised that she is not aware, realises that he is not sure either. Whilst Lizbeth's desk calendar says that it is [[May]], the [[clerk]]s' wall calendar says that it is [[April]] and [[Torchwood librarian|librarian]]'s desk calendar says [[August]].

''to be | Norton enters the office of his boss, Adam, who needs reminding of his name. He asks when the deadline for building the spacefleet is as nobody seems to be aware of when it is, nor what day it is today, and any attempt to find out from the outside world results in [[amnesia]]. Adam says that a Kernaz weapon must have been unleashed upon them and shakes Norton's hand, after which Norton falls to the floor. He awakes at night, in a [[puddle]] on [[Frith Street]]. | ||
Lizbeth finds a copy of ''[[The Lady Knitter]]'', which is not her usual reading but contains a message in her own handwriting directing her to the postmark, which says that it is the 23rd. Norton, who is sure that it is the 8th, says that that is impossible and that they must have been working too hard. He begins to remember something and asks Lizbeth if she sent herself the magazine as a psychic trigger, which she believes she did. They determine that their memories are being wiped to fool them into waging war and Norton suggests that they tell Adam. | |||
