''The Doctor crash-lands the TARDIS after it proves unable to lock onto any one [[timeline]] or materialise at any specific point and is confused by only being with Alex and Cass, believing that [[Bliss (The Starship of Theseus)|a fourth person]] had been with them. The planet is supposed to be uninhabited, but they find a [[factory]] converted from a [[Dalek]] [[Dalek flying saucer|ship]] where the Daleks are using a [[Battle TARDIS]] to power [[temporal interocitor]]s and [[emergency time-distortion device]]s and build a [[retcon bomb]]; the bomb could create a massive [[time corridor]] to rewrite history, which the Doctor says they will have to prevent by imploding the factory.

' | Oshia does not believe the Doctor, but agrees to postpone the execution for an hour to see if the Daleks do arrive. Accompanied by [[Vellan]], the Doctor, Alex and Cass look around the city to plan its defence and Alex realises that the people must be speaking [[English (language)|English]] given that the TARDIS and its [[translation circuit]] are a year in the future. The trio also notice that the architecture of the city and the names of its people are "Daleky" and learn that they worship the [[god]] [[Kaledia]], who supposedly created the planet out of [[fire]] and [[light]]. They deduce that life on the planet was created by the explosion of the factory. | ||
The Daleks arrive earlier than expected and exterminate Davon. Oshia comes to accept that the Doctor has to thwart the Daleks, even though it will mean that she and her people will never exist nor be remembered, and helps him capture and [[hacking|hack]] into a Dalek. He grabs onto the Dalek and uses it to fly to the Dalek ship where he steals the Battle TARDIS. He joins Alex, Cass, Oshia and Kade and says goodbye to the latter two as he triggers the Battle TARDIS's shutdown, which causes Oshia and Kade to vanish partway through his speech. | |||
The TARDIS is working fine and the Doctor and Alex are about to leave when the Doctor feels that they are missing somebody and that there used to be three of them in the ship. They remember Cass, who is nowhere to be found on the planet, in the TARDIS or even in the [[TARDIS log]]s. The Doctor promises that they will find her and get her back. | |||
