[[Eleventh Doctor|The Doctor]] and [[Amy Pond|Amy]] return to [[the Doctor's TARDIS|the TARDIS]] after surviving an attack from a giant [[cephalopod]] and receive a message from a young woman.

Arriving in an unfinished and unseasonably foggy city on [[Ryklan]], the Doctor uses [[the Doctor's sonic screwdriver|his sonic screwdriver]] to follow the now-imperceptible ticking. He and Amy meet [[Erla Farah]] and use [[the Doctor's psychic paper|the psychic paper]] to pose as agents of the [[Far Council]] and learn that [[Olivia Pamiec]] has been claiming that people's relatives have died. They continue to follow the signal to a [[hospital]] where the [[receptionist]], [[Gloria (The Calendar Man)|Gloria]], has not yet noticed that the [[clock]] behind her is moving far too fast. | Arriving in an unfinished and unseasonably foggy city on [[Ryklan]], the Doctor uses [[the Doctor's sonic screwdriver|his sonic screwdriver]] to follow the now-imperceptible ticking.

The Doctor and Amy find mist covering a bedbound patient, [[Marcus Haddon]], who asks them to [[apology|apologise]] to a woman for him before hitting his [[flesh]] and passing away. The mist clears, revealing that his face and torso are charred and his chest is flattened; when Amy touches him, he crumbles away and [[nurse (The Calendar Man)|a nurse]] sweeps his remains away. The Doctor and Amy protest but only they and Olivia, sat with a [[notebook]], can remember that somebody was in the bed. She tells them that somebody has died every day for the past month and that they have to find the source of the fog. The ever-present ticking has faded with Marcus's death and the Doctor continues to follow it as it fades, telling Amy to go with Olivia. | The Doctor and Amy find mist covering a bedbound patient, [[Marcus Haddon]], who asks them to [[apology|apologise]] to a woman for him before hitting his [[flesh]] and passing away.
