Doch auch Liz selbst stellt Nachforschungen an: Sie tut sich mit einem Journalisten zusammen, um Personen aufzuspüren, die es nicht gibt. Was ist das mysteriöse Glashaus, und warum ist es so geheim? Während die Silurianer aus ihrem langen Schlaf erwachen, werden der Doktor, Liz und der Brigadier in eine Verschwörung verstrickt, die tief ins Zentrum der britischen Regierung hineinreicht.

      „Jsem archeoložka. Ale asi jiná než jste očekávali.“ Vánoce 2015, Sydney, Nový Jižní Wales, Austrálie. Dokážete si představit, jak všechny překvapí, když se v sydneyské zátoce otevře časový portál. A taky si dokážete představit, jak je vyvede z míry, když vedle Harbour Bridge dosedne ohromná pyramida, která nevhodně zaclání Port Jackson, a navíc vyzařuje čirou energii. Dokážete si představit úlek v jejich tvářích, když sem dorazí gangster Cyrrus Guča, profesor Jaanson a mimozemská nájemná vražedkyně Kik Zabiják, aby zářící pyramidu obsadili. A nakonec si asi dokážete představit, jak všechny vyděsí, když jim těsně v patách dorazí skupina podvodníků chystajících se provést svůj zatím nejodvážnější husarský kousek. Tenhle gang sestává z Dlouhonožky (sexy komika), Psohlavce (který má na starosti bezpečnost a palebnou sílu), Mrněte (starajícího se o logistiku), Lopaty (hlavní archeoložky a historičky) a Felčara (jehož povinností je uchránit vesmír před explozí, vedle níž velký třesk vypadá jako provlhlá rachejtle). A když někdo omylem probudí Prastary vesmíru – což podle Felčara nebylo úplně moudré ani rozumné –, věci začnou rázem vypadat velmi komplikovaně.

      Christmas 2015, Sydney, Australia. Imagine everyone's surprise when a time portal opens up in Sydney Cove. Imagine their shock as a massive pyramid now sits beside the Harbour Bridge, inconveniently blocking Port Jackson and glowing with energy. Imagine their fear as Cyrrus 'the mobster' Globb, Professor Horace Jaanson and an alien assassin called Kik arrive to claim the glowing pyramid. Finally imagine everyone's dismay when they are followed by a bunch of con artists, out to spring their greatest grift yet. This gang consists of Legs, Dog Boy, Shortie, Da Trowel and their leader, Doc. And when someone accidentally reawakens The Ancients of the Universe - which, Doc reckons, wasn't the wisest or best-judged of actions - things get a whole lot more complicated.
