Sarah Jane and the gang are talking to Luke on a [[webcam]] when [[UNIT]] arrive on [[Bannerman Road]] outside her [[13 Bannerman Road|house]]. She is told by Colonel [[Tia Karim]] that [[the Doctor]] is dead, but she doesn't believe it. Colonel Karim tells the gang that alien undertakers, the [[Shansheeth]], are organising the funeral. This makes Sarah Jane more suspicious, so much so that she asks who would believe the Shansheeth based on their appearance. Mr Smith tells her the Shansheeth are called the galactic undertakers. That night, Sarah Jane tells Luke the news and that she thinks the Doctor is still alive. Luke thinks the idea is [[crazy]]. The next day Sarah Jane goes to the funeral, accompanied by Rani and Clyde. Just as he is getting into the private car, Clyde receives what seems to be a static electric shock to his hand. The gang go to Mount Snowden, home to the UNIT base which will host the Doctor's funeral. | Sarah Jane and the gang are talking to Luke on a [[webcam]] when [[UNIT]] arrive on [[Bannerman Road]] outside her [[13 Bannerman Road|house]].

At Snowden, the gang bump into the [[Groske]], a blue, tame version of the [[Graske]]. One of the Groske follows them and tells Clyde he "smells like time." Clyde looks at his hand, where he sees [[artron energy]]. The gang are taken to the parlour where a gathering of remembrance is taking place. Sarah Jane asks to see the body, but Karim refuses, and Sarah Jane is suspicious until told that his body was too badly damaged. She sits down with Rani and Clyde, confessing that she thinks the Doctor regenerated, and she doesn't even know what face he could be wearing. The Shansheeth play music on [[the Cradle|a harp]] to help the mourners remember the Doctor, but their thoughts of him are interrupted by the entry of [[Jo Grant|Jo Jones]], who has dropped the flowers she brought. Jo chatters while she and her grandson Santiago pick up the flowers. When they recognise each other, Jo sits next to Sarah Jane. Santiago sits behind Rani and Clyde. Sarah Jane and Jo talk and make friends, as do Santiago, Clyde, and Rani. | At Snowden, the gang bump into the [[Groske]], a blue, tame version of the [[Graske]].

As Clyde, Rani, and Santiago leave the room, they again meet the Groske who told Clyde that he "smells like time". Clyde gives chase, but the Groske jumps into a ventilation shaft. | After the remembrance, the gang is in a bedroom where Jo agrees with Sarah Jane's belief that the Doctor is still alive.
