In [[1913]] [[Ostend]], [[Sixth Doctor|the Doctor]] falls asleep reading ''[[À la recherche du temps perdu]]'' on the [[beach]] and is awoken by [[Alice Bultitude|Miss Bultitude]], but their one-sided conversation is interrupted when the Doctor has to save the life of the drowning [[Alphonse Chardalot|Inspector Chardalot]]. [[Peri Brown|Peri]], who has been shopping for a [[postcard]] to send to [[H. G. Wells]], returns and gives Chardalot mouth-to-mouth, after which she and the Doctor head back to their room at the [[Hotel Palace Thermae]] with a stuffed [[rhesus macaque]] in [[bride|bridal]] gear anonymously left for Peri with a note of thanks at reception. They soon receive a dinner invitation from Chardalot. | In [[1913]] [[Ostend]], [[Sixth Doctor|the Doctor]] falls asleep reading ''[[À la recherche du temps perdu]]'' on the [[beach]] and is awoken by [[Alice Bultitude|Miss Bultitude]], but their one-sided conversation is interrupted when the Doctor has to save the life of the drowning [[Alphonse Chardalot|Inspector Chardalot]].

At dinner, Miss Bultitude says that she recognised the rhesus macaque as one from a [[shop]] run by [[James Ensor]]'s [[Maria Catherina Haegheman|mother]] and takes Peri to the [[terrace]] when Chardalot lights a [[cigar]]. In their absence, Chardalot asks the Doctor about [[the Doctor's TARDIS|the TARDIS]], which Peri has been seen entering and leaving, and claims that he has come to investigate a [[murder]] that is yet to happen. Miss Bultitude knows that some of his stories of solving [[crime]]s are untrue and believes that he is a [[con artist]] as she saw him leaving the macaque at reception prior to his supposed near-drowning. She is also suspicious as his visit coincides with that of another guest whom she intends to introduce Peri to once she has met him herself. | |||
