Vinder reluctantly relives his time assisting the dictatorial Grand Serpent, and his demotion upon revealing the Serpent's misdeeds. The Doctor jumps into the temple's time storm and stalls Swarm by hiding Dan, Yaz and Vinder in their pasts, albeit with many details changed. The Doctor manages to recover the TARDIS and collect Dan, but it is hijacked and brought to the temple, where they are forced to watch as Swarm is about to kill Yaz and Vinder. The Sontarans discover Dan, but Karvanista rescues him right before destroying the shipyard, which resets the timeline. The Doctor regroups with Seacole and Logan's men, and they disrupt the Sontarans' supplies, but Logan reneges and bombs the camp. The Doctor enlists Seacole to gather intelligence on the Sontaran camp, then summons the Sontarans to negotiate a retreat, only to be arrested by Logan's soldiers, who later fight a disastrous battle with them. Swarm arrives at the temple, reveals it to be on the planet Time, kills the priests and takes Yaz and Vinder hostage. The Doctor deduces that the Sontarans slipped past the Lupari's defences.

The Flux's effects send Dan back to 2021 Liverpool, and Yaz to a damaged temple full of dying priests, beside Joseph Williamson and Vinder. The Doctor, Yaz and Dan come to in Crimean War-era Sevastopol, where the Sontarans have replaced the Russians throughout history, and meet Mary Seacole and General Logan. Unable to transport behind the shield, the TARDIS is overtaken by the Flux, with the Doctor, Yaz and Dan inside. The Doctor has Karvanista form a defensive shield with the other Lupari ships, protecting Earth from the Flux. Following another psychic interaction between the Doctor and Swarm, the Flux accelerates its attack on Earth. The Flux causes Vinder, the sole occupant of a remote space outpost, to evacuate, and catches the attention of the Sontarans. Karvanista tells them the Lupari are actually saving humanity from EarthвЂ™s destruction by the Flux, an unknown, all-consuming phenomenon that defies all laws of space and time. On KarvanistaвЂ™s ship, Yaz rescues Dan while the Doctor confronts Karvanista over his connection to the Division, before addressing the LupariвЂ™s apparent invasion plan. Shortly after, a Weeping Angel sends Claire to 1965. Before leaving Liverpool the Doctor and Yaz meet Claire, a woman from their future.

The Doctor experiences a psychic vision of the mysterious Swarm, who claims to share a history with her, escaping from his imprisonment by the Time Lord Division. The Doctor and Yaz pursue Karvanista, of the Lupari species, to Liverpool, where he kidnaps tradesman Dan Lewis.
