Dudley's memory is feasted upon and as they are distracted by their feasting, the Doctor quietly slips away. Lizzie explains that to them, Nyssa registered as a ghost but seemed very corporeal so they decided to try and save her. Next Nyssa discovers that while inside the ghosts appear every day inside, outside it's every couple hours. Lizzie then gets a call saying that the largest PSI surge has just been detected and they're going to check it out. | Dudley's memory is feasted upon and as they are distracted by their feasting, the Doctor quietly slips away.

The Doctor and Maxwell go look at the hyper-spatial warp-core engine. He explains that it requires massive power and uses it to figure out that the time bubble is breaking down, hence why time is dilating and it will eventually pop. Lizzie and Nyssa arrive on site and she explains to Nyssa how they enter the time bubble. Nyssa suggests they use the [[psychic energy]] to try contact the Doctor and volunteers herself.

The Doctor and Maxwell discover that someone is trying to break through the bubble eat Wellswood (PIG), which he explains is dangerous and cause destabilisation. The Lord and Lady, trying to search for the Doctor, have a vision of the imminent destruction of the time bubble (without it they will cease to exist) and decide to seek help from someone else. Nyssa on the outside uses the psychic energy to contact the Doctor through the police box telephone, telling him to come to Wellswood at midnight, the same message the Doctor had heard earlier in his point of view. Nyssa also reveals she felt Veridius' presence. The Doctor and Maxwell are trapped by the villagers, recognising them as not belonging. Outside, PIG prepares to enter. Nyssa puts on an environmental hazard suit and enters with Lizzie and others. She sees the Doctor and the scene from earlier plays out and she tries to get the Doctor out but Maxwell stops them. The same scenario as before plays out but the storm inside inside the [[time bubble]] is becoming worse. | ||
Nyssa recommends they try again and Nyssa manages to make another opening, where they spot the Doctor and Maxwell. The two make it out through the opening. The Doctor tells them to turn the machine off so they don't destroy the planet. The Lord and Lady panic as the time bubble is collapsing. They speak with [[Viridios]] about how to stop this and what to do, who tells them to expand the time bubble to consume the whole world. | Nyssa recommends they try again and Nyssa manages to make another opening, where they spot the Doctor and Maxwell.

The Doctor meets Lizzie and tries to | The Doctor meets Lizzie and tries to stabilise the breach to buy them more time. Viridios explains the plan to the Lord and Lady, and saying that the Doctor and Nyssa's future is their past and that their circle is complete. Outside, Maxwell is delighted to meet Lizzie, PIG and a group of people who believe in the paranormal as he does. The Doctor reveals to Nyssa that they may need to go back inside. He explains that the time bubble is about to expand and will freeze all life on earth making them the same as the residents in Stockbridge and it will swallow both him and Nyssa up, ensuring the future of the Lord and Lady of the manor will be maintained. Maxwell and Lizzie get along, and she offers him a place on the team of PIG and they awkwardly but sweetly manage to set up a date when the current predicament ends. The Doctor interrupts them and explains that he and Nyssa need to go back in. They do and the Doctor warns Lizzie that the machine they use to penetrate the bubble must be shut off once they are inside to not cause further damage to the bubble and when they get inside the bubble they notice that time has sped up dramatically. Maxwell believes they have gone to sacrifice themselves and he is saddened because he thinks he is useless and can't do anything to save them. He asks Lizzie for a badge but his trick is revealed when he reactivates the machine to go back inside himself, much to Lizzie's horror when she returns. He kisses her and goes inside. | ||
The Doctor and Nyssa are found by the villagers and beg him to let them die as they can't stand going through the absolution cycle again. They help the Doctor inside the Manor. He discovers that the only option they have to avert this timeline and stop the time bubble's expansion is to blow the core, sacrificing themselves and everyone inside the bubble. However, they are found by the Lord of the manor. Maxwell tries to find the Doctor. He answers the ringing telephone in the police box and Viridios is on the other end, telling him, threateningly, that he cannot escape his past. It is revealed that Maxwell Edison had died in a car accident earlier that year, but he tells Viridios that it doesn't matter and hangs up. | The Doctor and Nyssa are found by the villagers and beg him to let them die as they can't stand going through the absolution cycle again.

The Doctor asks the Lord of the Manor how he came to be but they are interrupted by the Lady becoming hungry and she enacts the absolution process on some of the villagers, but ends up killing them, shocking Nyssa. She continues to devour and kill the rest of them and attempts to feast on Nyssa who inadvertently causes the Lady to have flashbacks of many of their previous adventures. This causes the Lady of the manor to remember that she is really Nyssa, remembering how they were saved by Viridios, who reveals itself to the two, and the Lord devours the Lady. The manor begins to fall apart and Nyssa and the Doctor flee. | The Doctor asks the Lord of the Manor how he came to be but they are interrupted by the Lady becoming hungry and she enacts the absolution process on some of the villagers, but ends up killing them, shocking Nyssa.

They are found by Maxwell, but wonder why he is here. The phone in the police box rings, and it is Lizzie, able to contact them because the time bubble field is weakening.

The phone in the police box rings, and it is Lizzie, able to contact them because the time bubble field is weakening. She says she's going to try open the aperture of the bubble but is cut off by Viridios, who warns Maxwell he will not leave. Maxwell tells the Doctor what Lizzie said but the Doctor becomes angry, saying they will destabilise the bubble and destroy the planet. The Lord of the manor arrives and Viridios speaks through him. Viridios reveals it has been asleep for millions of years but has now awakened to take over the planet. Maxwell reveals to the Doctor that he is already dead and will sacrifice himself, despite the Doctor telling him this is his chance to live. Viridios fears Maxwell, as he was not part of the village and has some psychic ability and has always been a nut-case who thinks for himself. Encouraged by the Doctor he punches the Lord out and the three make a run for it. A hole opens up, made by PIG, and the three attempt to escape. | ||
Maxwell awakens in Stockbridge, confused. He asks a nearby man about the current year, which the man reveals is [[2009]]. He asks about Alice and Harold but it is revealed that they died years ago. He asks about others but they have all passed away, at their proper time. He asks about himself and his death but the man has no idea what he's talking about. Suddenly he spots Lizzie and runs towards her but she doesn't recognise him. He chats with her but it is revealed that PIG never existed as he realises that that timeline has been aborted with the destruction of the time bubble, and she is now a real estate agent and regular resident of Stockbridge. | Maxwell awakens in Stockbridge, confused.
