In 2020, the cloned reconnaissance scout hired workers to build a facility where it could clone more Daleks, disguised as an agricultural farm. Once the workers had finished building it, they were liquidised and fed to the new Daleks. In 2021, Leo Rugazzi, possessed by the clone, visited the facility, coming across Captain Jack Harkness and Yasmin Khan, sent by the Doctor to investigate, before he was killed by the Dalek.
