[[Alex Evening's World|In a world]] with twin suns, in a majestic city unmistakably [[human]], a group of [[UNIT]] personnel are fighting a battle against the primitive locals. [[Corporal]] [[Ives (Evening's Empire)|Ives]] and [[Colonel]] [[Muriel Frost]] have located [[Ace]], and they go to rescue her, with [[Hammond (Evening's Empire)|Hammond]] covering them. Despite the primitives being armed with merely [[bow]]s and [[arrow]]s, one arrow breaks through Hammond's body armour, severely [[wound]]ing him. The primitives begin to [[retreat]], and the UNIT personnel mistakenly think that they're winning the fight; they're sorely mistaken, as the primitives' [[Bible (Evening's Empire)|secret weapon]] starts decimating the soldiers. | ||

Meanwhile, the [[Seventh Doctor]] remarks, ''"A man. A [[plan]]. A [[canal]]. [[Panama]]."'', to which Frost rebuts, whilst preparing to dive into [[River Tees|a river]] alongside two other UNIT personnel. They are trying to recover a crashed [[Nazi]] plane, and after they dive to the bottom of the river, the crashed plane is found, and Frost gets the marked feeling that it was waiting for her. Back in the Burroughs Charted Surveyor, Alex retrieves a selection of records on local [[Bombing raid|bombings]], simultaneously serving Ace a [[cup]] of strong coffee and complimenting her looks. Unbeknownst to Ace, the coffee is spiked with [[chlormezanone]], which sends her crashing to the floor, unconscious. | ||
That [[evening]], more UNIT personnel arrive, extricating the plane from the murky depths. Drying herself with a [[towel]], Frost discusses the pilot, who was little more than a child, with the Doctor. That night, Alex lets himself into [[Janice Evening|his mother]]'s [[shed]], and she scolds him for interrupting the [[hymn]]s. Ace awakes, in a place she is entirely unfamiliar with, but a type of experience she is familiar with, though this time is different. Finding herself, alone, in a cell, she shouts for the Doctor, despite knowing he isn't there. | That [[evening]], more UNIT personnel arrive, extricating the plane from the murky depths.
