Opening narration box
The Zaan will only exchange Martha for the Treed Crystal they need to power the Vortex Cannon!

Summary
The Doctor arrives in an enormous stadium on the Zaan homeworld. With Zaan warships in the sky above and the Vortex Cannon in centre place. As agreed the Zaan allows Martha to rejoin the Doctor in exchange for the Crystal. The Doctor hands over the crystal and begs the Zaan not to use it in the Vortex Cannon. But the Zaan ignore the Doctor’s warning and activate the weapon which they then turn on the Doctor. The Doctor had heard rumours of the Vortex Cannon and as hoped the Vortex Cannon is a trap. As the Doctor and Martha fight to reach the TARDIS and escape, the Vortex Cannon creates a whirlpool in time as Time is folded in on itself, trapping the planet in a time loop. From a distance the Doctor and Martha watch with some regret that the Zaan civilisation is now gone forever. Time, the Doctor decides, to find some fun!
