Two people, the First Doctor and his granddaughter Susan Foreman begin entering a capsule, however suddenly the Doctor is stopped by Clara. She tells him he is about to make a big mistake.

Story notes

 * In this episode, it is revealed that Clara has lived thousands of lives throughout the Doctor's history, saving him from the Great Intelligence's sabotage in each life, finally revealing why the Doctor met two versions her at the Dalek Asylum and in Victorian London, respectively. However, according to her, he almost never notices her, with the exception of the First Doctor and the Eleventh Doctor
 * This episode shows clips of different versions of Clara scattered throughout the Doctor's timeline: advising the First Doctor to steal his Type 40 TARDIS on Gallifrey, calling out for the Third Doctor as he's driving away in Bessie, chasing after the Fourth Doctor on Gallifrey (from TV: The Invasion of Time), finding the Fifth Doctor trapped (from TV: Arc of Infinity), trying to find the Sixth Doctor on his TARDIS, attempting to rescue the Seventh Doctor from falling off of a cliff (from TV: Dragonfire), running after the Second Doctor and the Eighth Doctor, and watching the Tenth Doctor in The Library.
