[[Ace]] appears in the [[The Doctor's TARDIS (Tales of the TARDIS)|remembered TARDIS]] and looks around to find both the Seventh Doctor's hat and the baseball bat that she once used to damage an [[Imperial Dalek]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[Remembrance of the Daleks (TV story)|Remembrance of the Daleks]]'') After the Seventh Doctor says that she gave the Dalek quite a beating, Ace embraces him before he takes his hat from her.
 
Ace tells the Doctor that he was a hologram the last time she saw him and he has become older. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Power of the Doctor (TV story)|The Power of the Doctor]]'') The Doctor goes on to explain that time streams are funny things and there are some time streams where he doesn't regenerate. After Ace explains that she was in a meeting when she appeared in the TARDIS, the Doctor explains that they are standing in a memory TARDIS where old friends come together to remember certain events.
 
The Doctor sits in a chair and moves a [[chess]] piece across the board before telling Ace that he thought about her every day. Ace says that she wishes she never left the Doctor, prompting the Doctor to tell her that the remembered TARDIS is forever and they can return to it whenever they like with a wish.
 
Ace remembers that she wished she was somewhere else, and she soon got her wish when she was transported to [[Iceworld|Iceworld]] by [[Fenric]] as part of his game of traps. She then becomes reluctant to remember her encounter with Fenric, but the Doctor tells her that they both should remember as pain comes to define them along with the joy. As the Doctor decides to remember the day that both he and Ace met Fenric, he takes Ace's hand as [[The Curse of Fenric (TV story)|the memories begin to flood back]].
