To evade the Time Lords, the Doctor took Benny to a unremarkable planet and turned off the TARDIS. For twenty-six days they resided in a cabin on an island, with Benny being intrigued by the nearby tribe whilst the Doctor saved a sea monster from them. They passed the time with board games, which the Doctor cheated at to Benny’s annoyance, and the Doctor returned to the TARDIS on occasion though he barred Benny from doing so. Eventually Benny deduced the truth about the tribe, that they tolerated outsiders for twenty-seven days before killing them, but they were both captured just as she told the Doctor. Escaping being tied to a pole as the tide rose together, the Doctor revealed he’d deduced the monster was a survivor of a past alien expedition to the island and it’s eggs were signal devices. He fully activated one to help the creature, which also attracted the Time Lords just as the tribe had discovered their survival.

He was irritated by his neighbouring cell mate continuously tapping "now" in Time Lord morse code on their shared wall. Benny devised a plan where he was seemingly executed but actually transported into [[the Matrix]]. Returning to his cell, he and Benny investigated the bizarre occurrences on Gallifrey and deduced that the Time Lords were under the influence of the [[Now (species)|Now]], pan-dimensional parasites. The Doctor devised a way to force the Time Lords to regenerate using the [[Crown of Rassilon]] to purge the Now, but realised it would kill all of the Now as well as many Time Lords in the process and backed out of the plan. Coordinator [[Narvin]] initiated the plan himself, revealing he had had the Doctor brought to Gallifrey in the hope that he would devise a solution. Furious, the Doctor and Benny departed Gallifrey.
