[[Jo Grant|Jo]] and [[Petronella Osgood|Osgood]] are interrupted at a [[swimming pool]] by [[Kate Stewart|Kate]] and, on a [[UNIT]] [[aeroplane]], are informed of pockets of temporal instability on the [[coast]] near [[Wychert]], [[Dorset]]. The same thing happened in the same place during the [[Winspit Incident]] in the [[1970s]] and, according to a report by [[Allison Williams]], was resolved not by the [[Third Doctor]] but by the death of Jo, who has no [[memory]] of the incident. A group of people from the [[16th century]] have already been brought to the [[21st century]] and are being kept sedated pending relocation. | [[Jo Grant|Jo]] and [[Petronella Osgood|Osgood]] are interrupted at a [[swimming pool]] by [[Kate Stewart|Kate]] and, on a [[UNIT]] [[aeroplane]], are informed of pockets of temporal instability on the [[coast]] near [[Wychert]], [[Dorset]].

Upon arriving at the beach, Kate is pulled into one of the holes and Jo goes after her. They encounter the Doctor, when Osgood makes [[radio]] contact, he tells Osgood that he will get Jo and Kate home and close the holes. In the [[2010s]], a waveform bores holes in reality and restores a [[pliosaur]] which eats one of [[Wallace (The Sacrifice of Jo Grant)|Lieutenant Wallace]]'s men before returning to [[bone]]s, the waveform heading towards the village. Looking for the oldest place there, Osgood and Wallace go to the [[church]]. | Upon arriving at the beach, Kate is pulled into one of the holes and Jo goes after her.

Looking for the oldest place there, Osgood and Wallace go to the [[church]] and the waveform animates a ''[[Brontosaurus]]'' and the oldest [[skeleton]]s in the [[graveyard]]. Osgood puts a [[time flow analog]] together and uses it to remove the waveform's control. | ||
The Doctor puts together a machine to safely close the holes within four or five hours and explains that Jo and Kate will have twenty seconds just before they close to return home. He tasks Kate with calling [[Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart|the Brigadier]] to inquire about [[soldier]]s, but she is wary of doing so and escapes having to do so when the soldiers arrive. Jo advises her to speak with the Brigadier at some point before they leave and, remembering Allison's report, suggests that she will sacrifice herself to close the holes sooner than the four or five hours. Whilst the Doctor and Jo have lunch, Kate receives contact from Osgood, telling her to alter the Doctor's machinery. | The Doctor puts together a machine to safely close the holes within four or five hours and explains that Jo and Kate will have twenty seconds just before they close to return home.

''to | Kate's alterations have caused [[time]] to behave chaotically and she brings the Doctor and Jo back to the beach. The Doctor believes that somebody might have impersonated Osgood and works to repair the damage, planning on risking his life to pass through one of the holes with a device. He refuses to let Kate take his place, having worked out that she is the Brigadier's daughter, and advises her to make contact with her father. Whilst she does so, Allison arrives and Jo knocks the Doctor out with [[Venusian aikido]] to take his place. Jo passes through the hole and finds herself outside of time until Kate saves her and hands her a letter from the Doctor; in it, he explains that he invented a gadget to rescue her and ensured that it ended up with Osgood. | ||
