Having finished the last slice of [[Evelyn Smythe|Evelyn]]'s [[chocolate]] [[sponge cake]], [[Sixth Doctor|the Doctor]] heads to [[Pease Pottage]] to meet [[Melanie Bush|Mel]] whilst his younger self is dropping an older Mel home following [[The Doctor's trial (The Mysterious Planet)|his trial]], albeit at an earlier [[time]] than intended. The older Doctor hurries off after meeting the older Mel and the younger Doctor meets the younger Mel on her way to work at the [[Pease Pottage Radar Station|radar station]] as he investigates a [[car]] wrecked by an [[iguanodon]]. The wreck is ignored by Mel and disappears entirely when [[Muriel Wilberforce|Mrs Wilberforce]] orders the Doctor to leave the village.

The younger Mel arrives at the radar station interrupting Petherbridge contacting someone: she fails to notice this. Just after, Jedediah Thurwell knocks on the door. The younger Mel asks Petherbridge not to answer it: she and Thurwell had a fall out and now she refuses to talk to him. Petherbridge goes outside to speak to Thurwell, who apologises for not turning up to the auditions. Petherbridge instructs Therwell to hold up a carriage, which Thurwell agrees to. The younger Doctor overhears their conversation and, using the information the younger Mel gave him, assumes that Petherbridge is one of these men after Thurwell calls him ‘Mr. P’. He also notices that Thurwell is wearing clothes not from the current time period. Once Petherbridge and Thurwell have gone, the younger Doctor sneaks into the radar station, where the younger Mel is cleaning. Against the younger Mel’s protests, the younger Doctor interferes with the equipment and discovers that the radar station is contacting a spaceship in the woods a few miles away. These were the people Petherbridge was talking to. Suddenly, a time explosion goes off, but the younger Mel says it’s nothing to worry about and that Petherbridge told her what it was. The younger Doctor begins to suspect Petherbridge. He leaves to investigate, telling the younger Mel to stay.
The younger Doctor overhears [[Time demon|Mr Petherbridge]] ordering [[Jedediah Thurwell|Jedediah]], who is wearing old-fashioned [[clothes]], to hold up a [[carriage]] and sneaks into the radar station as the younger Mel is [[hoovering]], finding that Petherbridge has been communicating with a [[spaceship]] in the woods. He goes to investigate what Mel casually refers to as a [[time explosion]] and encounters his older self, who has been caught in a trap on [[Horsham Road]].


On the Mardaxs’ spaceship, Captain Ksllak contacts Vaneesh. He explains how his troops are ready and asks if her presentation is ready. She explains how it is but there’s a lot of slides. Ksllak reveals that their mission was originally a training flight but they had to change it.

The younger Doctor is looking around for where the explosion could have come from and sees the older Doctor, who falls into a trap hidden in the middle of the street. The younger Doctor runs up to him and asks if he’s the Doctor or not. He answers his question by contacting him telepathically.


Meanwhile, the older Mel is sitting in her house when Mrs. Wilberforce comes in. The older Mel is confused: she’s never met Mrs. Wilberforce in her entire life. She explains that she’s looking after Mel while her parents are on a cruise. Mrs. Wilberforce notices that Mel looks older and before she can explain, Mrs. Wilberforce finds out that the older Mel is from the future. Mrs. Wilberforce tells the older Mel her life story and that she died in 1964 at the age of 80. Mrs. Wilberforce suggests to the older Mel that they ask Petherbridge about there being two Mels.
