[[Paul Forbes]] is in trouble. Rather foolishly, he has chosen to drive across the [[Gibson Desert]] on an ill-advised summer trip between [[Darwin]] and [[Alice Springs]]. His [[Landrover]] doesn't like it. After it overheats near [[Barrow Creek]], he is forced to stop in the blazing sun in the hopes that his engine will somehow cool down. In the distance, what he assumes to be a mirage forms before his eyes. Why, though, is it in the form of a [[British]] [[police box]]? [[Seventh Doctor|A man]] pops out of the box and asks him to move three steps to the left. A baffled Forbes complies —just in time to avoid being struck by a chunk of falling [[Skylab]]. The man pops back inside the police box, muttering something about a person named [[Ace]], who hates it when he does this sort of thing because she thinks he's just showing off.
