Around [[2006]], Dan was [[Engagement|engaged]] and due to be [[marriage|married]]. However, two days before the [[wedding]], [[Dan Lewis' fiancée|his fiancée]] changed her mind.

Following the [[2021 Dalek civil war]], [[Dan Lewis' friend|Dan's friend]] read out Dan's [[horoscope]], which foretold that he would find surprises later that year, that the colour [[blue]] and the letter [[D]] would be important and that [[13 (number)|thirteen]] would be his [[lucky number]].

When the Doctor returned, Dan accepted her offer to join her as she departed to find Yaz. They were diverted to the planet [[Time (planet)|Time]] where [[Younger Swarm|Swarm]] and [[Azure]] were waiting for them in the [[Temple of Atropos]]. The pair revealed to the Doctor and Dan they'd put Yaz and [[Inston-Vee Vinder]] in the places of two [[Mouri]], and prepared to expose them to the full force of time. ([[TV]]: ''[[War of the Sontarans (TV story)|War of the Sontarans]]'') The Doctor shoved Dan onto a Mouri pedestal, while she leapt onto another and used her [[sonic screwdriver]], trapping Dan, Yaz, Vinder and herself in a [[time storm]]. Protected in his [[time stream]] by the Doctor, Dan relived a day he went on a walk with Diane, and discussed his past relationships. However, Dan noticed some inconsistencies, such as time passing in the blink of an eye. Fidgeting out of his time stream, Dan found himself somewhere else. He ran into [[Joseph Williamson]] while running away, though he wasn't quite sure from what he was running. While Dan was safe, trapped in a memory, the Doctor replaced the missing Mouri and safely returned Dan to the temple. Swarm showed Dan a glimpse of Diane, who he had kidnapped and imprisoned in a [[Passenger form]]. Vinder and later the Doctor promised to help Dan save her.

Both Dan and Yaz were studiously operating [[The Doctor's TARDIS|the TARDIS]] when the Thirteenth Doctor sent a [[distress call]] about the arrival of [[the Flux]].

After the Doctor rebooted the Tardis to get rid of the Weeping Angel, she, Dan and Yaz arrived at the village of Medderton on [[21 November]] [[1967]]. Whilst helping to look for a missing girl named [[Peggy (Village of the Angels)|Peggy]], Dan and Yaz were touched by another Weeping Angel and were sent back in time to Medderton in [[1901]]. They were later joined by Professor [[Eustacius Jericho]], who had also been touched by a Weeping Angel. Dan and Yaz, via an energy barrier showing what was happening in 1967, witnessed the Doctor being surrounded by Weeping Angels and turned into one after being recalled to [[the Division]]. Dan had to stop Yaz from going through the energy barrier to get to the Doctor as doing so would have resulted in her death.

([[COMIC]]: ''[[It's Behind You! (comic story)|It's Behind You!]]'')]]Now travelling for pleasure as a trio, Dan, the [[Thirteenth Doctor]] and [[Yasmin Khan|Yaz]] went to see a [[pantomime]] of ''[[Cinderella]]'', which took a turn for the adventurous after the Doctor tried something during the interval to make the show more exciting, only to accidentally summon real versions of various pantomime characters to the theater. Though Dan had to duel [[Jas Hook|Captain Hook]] (while Yaz fought off the [[Crocodile (It's Behind You!)|Crocodile]]), the Doctor was able to put things to right using one of the three [[wish]]es from a [[magic lamp]], and things returned to normal, allowing the time travellers to witness the second half of the real show. Dan suggested that the Doctor use the second one of her three wishes to give [[ice cream]] to all the children in the audience. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[It's Behind You!

A week after Dan began travelling with her and Yaz, the Doctor engaged a self-reset process that rendered [[the Doctor's TARDIS|her TARDIS]] temporarily unusable in order to purge it of the [[The Flux|Flux]]'s residue. As an unintended side-effect, she and her companions, now including Dan, became trapped in a [[time loop]] at [[ELF Storage]] in [[Manchester]], alongside the building's owner [[Sarah (Eve of the Daleks)|Sarah]] and her eventual love interest [[Nick (Eve of the Daleks)|Nick]]. A small [[Dalek]] execution squad infiltrated the building, trying to find and exterminate the Doctor, leading to the group being exterminated over and over again, resetting the time loop each time. During these loops, Dan had a soulful conversation with Yaz, revealing that he had noticed that she had [[Romance|romantic feelings]] for the Doctor. When she confirmed it and told that she "didn't know what to do", he urged her to speak her mind to the Doctor, also advising the Doctor — who he knew was aware of these feelings — to stop avoiding the conversation and feigning obliviousness. Eventually they devised a way to escape the building before [[midnight]] while destroying the Daleks with explosives in the storage. | A week after Dan began travelling with her and Yaz, the Doctor engaged a self-reset process that rendered [[the Doctor's TARDIS|her TARDIS]] temporarily unusable in order to purge it of the [[The Flux|Flux]]'s residue.

When faced with the unknown, Dan tended towards quick, rational conclusions, and had no trouble asserting his reality.
