The [[Twelfth Doctor]] and [[Bill Potts]] are running from [[Dalek]]s. They hide behind a wall, and Bill repeatedly questions the Doctor as to what a Dalek is. He hurriedly explains to her. Then he receives a notification via the [[psychic paper]] and insists that they need to go back to [[The Doctor's TARDIS|the TARDIS]], convinced that the future, specifically [[2017]], needs them. As they leave their hideout, a Dalek shoots at them and states that it detected humanoids. | The [[Twelfth Doctor]] and [[Bill Potts]] are running from [[Dalek]]s.

The Dalek confronting the Doctor and Bill at the end of the clip is retconned in the episode to be the sentient oil disguised as a Dalek. This required to change the Dalek's "humanoids detected" remark into something compatible with the nature and objectives of the sentient oil. | * As becomes clear in [[TV]]: ''[[The Pilot (TV story)|The Pilot]]'', Bill and the Doctor are in a [[Dalek-Movellan War|Dalek-Movellan]] [[War zone (The Pilot)|war zone]], where they have fled to free themselves from some [[sentient oil]], who was pursuing Bill through time and space.
