Pete decides it's time he accompanied Rose on one of her dimension jumps. But he couldn't have picked a worse time. They arrive in a world where technology took an extraordinary path, and where the recently deceased Pete Tyler had a very different kind of success.

As machines start to break down, Pete meets his widow, and he and Rose must confront truths about their 'family'. But they may not escape this Earth alive.
