No wonder...

- No!

- What?

I saw him! The Master is here!

What are you talking about?

He plans to take my body,

so that he will live and I will die!

Oh...NO!

He has opened the Eye of Harmony!

- What is the Eye of Harmony?

- Wait, wait!

We're seeing what he's seeing.

I know that woman!

- Now he can't see you!

- What's the Eye of Harmony?

Power source in the TARDIS,

my ship through time and space.

It stands for Time

And Relative Dimension In Space.

- The Master is a devil?

- No, a rival Time Lord.

Evil. He was finally exterminated

by the Daleks, or so we thought.

- You really ARE insane!

- He wasn't dead! It was a trap!

If I look into the Eye...

..he will take my body!

- Listen to those lies!

- She believes him!

I don't want to deal with this!

That's enough!

If the Eye isn't closed,

this planet will be sucked through it!

Grace, I need to fix it! I need

an atomic clock. Help me find one!

Grace...

Grace!

Grace!

So that's how he intends to destroy me!

How?

We must get to the Doctor

before he finds a clock.

I know that woman!

- She operated on him.

- Find her, we find him.

GRACE!

- Stay away from me!

- Grace, please, let me in.

No!

Grace, let me in. We can sit down,

have a cup of tea, talk about it.

- Time Lord to earthling (!)

- Yes, I am a Time Lord.

- You were a doctor.

- I am!

I'm calling an ambulance

to take you back to Psychiatric!

Grace, if I don't get the Master

off this planet, it will not exist!

- I'm calling the ambulance!

- Grace, we have until midnight!

Come on, come on! Yes, I'll hold.

I'll PROVE the Eye is open!

Look at this.

Yes...

The molecular structure

of the planet is changing.

I will need an ambulance right away.

This is Dr Grace Holloway.

At first, in subtle ways;

soon, in catastrophic ways!

I need a psychiatric bed.

By midnight, this planet

will be pulled inside out.

Nothing will be left.

I think you'd better

make that two beds!

Doctor, Doctor.

Come on, she needs an ambulance.

Grace...I've lost 20 pounds!

Congratulations.

In 20 minutes?!

You'd make a fortune

in the diet business.

(TV) Now news about

a strange natural phenomena.

Bay area tides break all records

for this time of year.

Flood warnings have gone out,

and in Hawaii

it has started snowing!

Links with the Millennium?

It is due to minute changes

in the Earth's gravitational pull.

Changes which happen once

every thousand years.

I love humans,

always seeing patterns

in things that aren't there.

Next, where fashionable people

are bringing in the New Year.

Won't they see a clock

getting started?

Yes, and it isn't just any old clock.

It's an atomic clock,

and it's at the ITAR

in downtown San Francisco.

(''ATOMIC CLOCK'' ECHOES)

A beryllium clock!

- They're here!

- They can take us!

We need to go to the ITAR.

Do you know where that is?

Of course I do.

(DOCTOR) The time?

(GRACE) 10.30.

I'm on the Institute Board.

They'll listen.

Won't this thing go any faster?!

Come on!

Can't you give him a sedative?

Why didn't you say

you had access to a clock?

- I was worried about the Eye.

- Of Harmony?

And the fact we'll be sucked

through it!

You don't often meet a Time Lord,

Doctor.

He likes me to call him Doctor.

- Freudian...

- Transference.

At least Freud

would have taken me seriously.

- Not if he'd met you!

- We did meet.

Right, a Time Lord (!)

- You knew Marie Curie?

- Yes.

- She kiss as good as me?

- As WELL.

(GRACE)

A truck's blocking the lanes.

The planet's about to be destroyed

and I'm in a traffic jam (?)

(GRACE SCREAMS)

OH, MY GOD! WHAT IS IT?!

I can't be injured!

(MASTER) Get it off me!

Get it off me!

Get it off me!

Sir, ma'am, get back to your vehicle.

What?! STOP! He's...he's British!

I suppose I am. Jelly baby?

Jelly baby?

Just take it.

Now, stand aside

before I shoot myself.

Don't be a fool.

- With me, Grace?

- We don't stand a chance!

Excuse me, please.

I came back to life before your eyes.

I held back death!

I can't make your dream true

forever, but I can today!

Gimme the gun.

OK...give him the keys!

Thank you.

What are we waiting for?

- The road is still blocked.

- This...is...an AMBULANCE!

Maybe I should have

kept the gun. LOOK!

DOCTOR, LOOK OUT!

BREATHE IN!

(LEE) Don't worry.

I'm not worried.

- What are you doing?

- This way's quicker.

- I know what I'm doing.

- Faster!

We'll let him get to the clock,

then we'll get his body!

- I think we lost them.

- Good. Hold on!

- Know what I'll do with that gold?

- I don't want to know.

- You kill me!

- You want me to kill you?

No! I mean, you make me laugh.

You're a funny guy.

I'm glad one of us is amused.

Cheer up. You'll get your body.

We're a team, right?

Yes, we're a team (!)

NOT AGAIN!

Great, I meet the right guy

and he's from another planet (!)

Doctor, I only have ONE life!

Can you remember that?

- I'll try.

- Thank you!

Oh, no! Doctor, look!

Dr Grace Holloway and guest.

Thank you.

First time being on the Board

has ever done me any good.

He must've found a back way in.

- Sorry, not beyond this point.

- But this is Dr Bowman.

- You'll get in later.

- I'm on the Board!

Thank you very much (!)

Come on.

(TANNOY) Welcome to the Institute

of Technological Advancement.

Professor Wagg invites you

to join in celebrating the starting

of the world's most accurate timepiece -

a Beryllium Atomic Clock.

How will we get THAT on the bike?

(DOCTOR) We only need a tiny part.

- So, time travel is possible?

- Anything is possible.

Why can't you become

another species?

I can, but only when I die.

And the rival Time Lord, the Master?

He's on his last life. In a fight

for survival there are no rules.

If I tell you a secret,

promise not to tell.

Oh, Professor Wagg! This is

Dr Bowman. He's from London.

He was just going to share

a secret with us.

Yes. Any chance

of a closer look at the clock?

No! I'm afraid I am the only person

allowed up there.

Maybe we could bend the rules a bit?

- But you see...

- Grace says you have a secret.

What is it?

I'm half human.

On my mother's side.

Very clever! Happy New Year.

Yes, I think you must be.

Champagne?

Grace...

This is when I wish

I had my sonic screwdriver.

Your WHAT?

See? I told you it was small.

What is it they say?

They say it on my planet, too.

- I know you.

- You do, huh?

Gareth, answer the SECOND question

on your mid-term, not the third.

- What?

- The SECOND. Don't forget.

I won't. Now, what's in your hand?

(GRACE) What was that about?

Ten years from now, Gareth will

head the Seismology Task Force

and will design a system

to predict earthquakes.

His inventions save the human race

several times,

- but first he must pass Poetry.

- Look! The kid!

You see who he's with? Come on!

The Master?

You're lucky he only got your wrist.

(GUNSHOT)

(ALARM)

Liven things up!

DOOR!

You're not afraid of heights, are you?

- Yeah.

- So am I.

Everyone, stay calm! Remain inside!
