Plot Summary
The Doctor and Belinda hold on tight while the TARDIS? is pulled into a perpendicular dimension where they find an alternate Belinda facing off against Marty on Veratra. After watching Marty disappear, the Doctor postulates (correctly) that ; is involved in some way. It is at this point they catch the attention of Darth Malignant. They chat briefly before the evil Belinda moves on the offensive and tries to kill them. After running, dodging, and discussing non-violence the Doctor manages to get to the TARDIS but announces that the evil Belinda's universe is collapsing under the weight of no longer having Marty's choice and the paradox of Belinda not having taken on the mantle of Una. The Doctor and Belinda run into the TARDIS and evil Belinda follows but is kicked out by her good counterpart. As the universe collapses the TARDIS returns to its home dimension and the Doctor means to go have a word with ;. Instead the Doctor finds an invitation suggesting that they may have more than just the incident of the perpendicular dimension to discuss.
