[[Eighth Doctor|The Doctor]] and [[Sheena (The Starship of Theseus)|Sheena]] materialise facing a wall in a broom cupboard and, squeezing out of [[the Doctor's TARDIS|the TARDIS]], find that they are on the ''[[Theseus (ship)|Theseus]]'', a cruise liner about to leave the [[Jupiter Spaceport]]. Sheena is amazed by the view of [[Jupiter]] and how the ship has its own [[atmosphere]], eliminating the need for [[window]]s to look outside; as this is expensive, the Doctor surmises that they are on a luxury cruise and decides that they will stay to relax and enjoy [[mocktail]]s. Showing [[George Lunney|Purser Lunny]] his [[psychic paper]] instead of a [[ticket]], he learns that they are headed to [[Vulcan (Invasion of the Daleks)|Vulcan]]. | [[Eighth Doctor|The Doctor]] and [[Sheena (The Starship of Theseus)|Sheena]] materialise facing a wall in a broom cupboard and, squeezing out of [[the Doctor's TARDIS|the TARDIS]], find that they are on the ''[[Theseus (ship)|Theseus]]'', a cruise liner about to leave the [[Jupiter Spaceport]].

When Purser Lunney goes to deal with [[Koloth|a man]] who wants to speak to somebody in charge, the Doctor and Sheena follow and hear that the man has been trying to find out why his sister disappeared after boarding the ship in [[May]]. Purser Lunney takes him to have a word with [[Darvor|Captain Darvor]] to discuss the matter. Although Sheena is willing to believe that it is a simple missing persons case, the Doctor is reminded of [[ | When Purser Lunney goes to deal with [[Koloth|a man]] who wants to speak to somebody in charge, the Doctor and Sheena follow and hear that the man has been trying to find out why his sister disappeared after boarding the ship in [[May]].

Although Sheena is willing to believe that it is a simple missing persons case, the Doctor is reminded of [[The Faceless Ones (TV story)|a similar situation]] at [[Gatwick Airport|an airport]] in the [[1960s]] and wants to investigate. Sheena reminds him that they are on holiday and should enjoy themselves for once, so they run up to the next deck to have the best view of the launch. | ||
The Doctor and [[Sheena (The Starship of Theseus)|Emma]] budge up so that [[Quarren Maguire|Quarren]] and [[Rupa Maguire]], a married couple on a budget holiday, can enjoy the view as well. The ''Theseus'' takes off and jumps into [[hyperdrive]], raising shields to protect the minds of those aboard from being driven mad by the sight of [[hyperspace]]. The two pairs part ways, with Rupa suggesting that they might all have [[dinner]] together tonight. The Doctor took notice that the man taken to the Captain had not been escorted off of the ship before take-off and goes to investigate with Emma, heading to the crew quarters seven decks down and gaining access by convincing [[Jefferson (The Starship of Theseus)|Jefferson]] that they are [[escapology|escapologists]] in the [[cabaret]]. | The Doctor and [[Sheena (The Starship of Theseus)|Emma]] budge up so that [[Quarren Maguire|Quarren]] and [[Rupa Maguire]], a married couple on a budget holiday, can enjoy the view as well.
