A year later, Oswin aided the [[Eleventh Doctor]], [[Amy Pond]] and [[Rory Williams]] in finding safe passage through the Dalek Asylum. She later wiped all the information about [[the Doctor]] from the Daleks' [[Pathweb]] at one point to save him from the Daleks in Intensive Care. The Doctor attempted to rescue her until he found her and discovered she was a Dalek. The Doctor explained this to Oswin, who first nearly gave in to her Dalek conditioning by attempting to exterminate the Doctor, then broke down over what she had become.

Oswin lowered the Asylum's defences so the [[Parliament of the Daleks]] could destroy the planet and asked the Doctor to remember her as the human she once was, with her last words, "Run, you clever boy... And remember." When Amy, Rory and the Doctor escaped to the Parliament, they learned Oswin had erased the Doctor from the memories of the Daleks in the Parliament and the Dalek inmates in the Asylum.

When the Doctor later encountered [[Clara Oswin Oswald]], he noted that she had a similar voice to Oswin but failed to make any connection between the two until he saw the barmaid's full name on her [[tombstone]], setting him on the path to find the original Clara. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Snowmen (TV story)|The Snowmen]]'') Following his meeting her, the Doctor recalled Oswin when Clara demonstrated her new hacking skills and chose the username "Oswin". ([[TV]]: ''[[The Bells of Saint John (TV story)|The Bells of Saint John]]'') The Doctor wrote in [[Eleventh Doctor's diary|his diary]] about how he had met three different Claras and how two of them died — something which made no sense to him.

The Doctor later brought up Oswin to Clara when questioning why he kept meeting her but Clara later lost her memories of this when the timeline reset. ([[TV]]: ''[[Journey to the Centre of the TARDIS (TV story)|Journey to the Centre of the TARDIS]]'') She regained them when climbing through a wrecked future version of [[the Doctor's TARDIS]]. When in proximity to [[the Doctor's time stream]], Clara briefly experienced one of Oswin's memories, allowing her to deduce that she had to enter the Doctor's time stream. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Name of the Doctor (TV story)|The Name of the Doctor]]'')

Oswin's actions had a profound impact on the [[New Dalek Paradigm]] whose war effort ground to a halt for centuries as they attempted to make sense of the information she had deleted. Ultimately however, her efforts were later undone when the Daleks harvested information about the Doctor from [[Tasha Lem]].

Although some of her memories of her splintered lives were "blurry", the prime Clara indicated on at least one occasion that she remembered being Oswin. She called on her memories of Dalek psychology to talk a time-travelling [[Dalek]] into thinking it had become impure and destroying itself, adopting Dalek speech patterns to push its buttons. The [[Twelfth Doctor]] found the display disturbing despite its effectiveness. ([[GAME]]: ''[[Lost in Time (video game)|Lost in Time]]'')
