''to be | While [[Sixth Doctor|the Doctor]] and [[Peri]] are in the TARDIS discussing 'what-if's' to do with collapsing time-streams, they are interupted by a voice of a being who claims to have "created the creator", a being who has had a guiding and protective interest over the Doctor that goes back to before he left Gallifrey.

The underneath reveals a small hatch which has a number of rusty cylinders in it with the letters E,V,E,R,Y,R,E,A,D and Y barely visible. The Doctor replacies the old batteries with new ones he has been given and states aloud that this knowledge alone is dangerous. The being hears him and agrees ...<br> | ||
