Working together with the Dalek Time Controller, Kotris injected baby Molly with the retrogenitor particles, knowing that they would activate if she came near Time Lords. This would eventually allow Kotris to turn the evolution of Time Lords ''backwards'', erasing them from existence. To avoid this fate himself, Kotris first had himself genetically altered to become something much closer to the Daleks than to the Time Lords. However, younger Straxus is busy changing the timeline -- he swapped the particles when the fake TARDIS landed near the projector, changing them to a setting that will instead un-evolve the ''Daleks'' once activated. He promises Nadeyan a new timeline in which the Daleks never existed, never invaded Srangor, and never killed Nadeyan's family. The only person that needs to die is Molly. Nadeyan won't have it, ''punches Straxus in the face'' and sets out to save Molly, because no matter how much the loss of his family hurt him, it's not worth destroying the life of one more person.

Straxus seemingly dies by helping the Doctor and Molly escape. The Eighth Doctor and Molly ignore the coordinates programmed into the TARDIS by Straxus and instead end up on the [[Recap/BigFinishDoctorWhoNEDASDarkEyesE2Fugitives planet Srangor, where Straxus previously tried to kill himself]]. Interestingly, Molly is now able to understand alien languages. They happen on Straxus' assistant, dying, who -- before oassing away -- reveals that regeneration is impossible on Srangor due to a radiation mishap.

While the Doctor realises that the controls of his TARDIS are suddenly very "bog-standard factory settings", Nadeyan finds the Doctor's ''real'' TARDIS inside the TARDIS they're in. Which turns out to have all its defenses ripped out, leaving them vulnerable to a Time Ram used by the Daleks. The Doctor and Molly are taken captive and finally meet Kotris and the Dalek Time Controller, although Nadeyan manages to escape. He meets Straxus deep inside the Time Lord TARDIS.

"Kotris" turns out to be a future incarnation of Straxus, who eventually became horrified by the Gallifreyan way of life and decided to engineer a Last Great Time War all of his own. Working together with the Dalek Time Controller, he injected baby Molly with the retrogenitor particles, knowing that they would activate if she came near Time Lords. This would eventually allow Kotris to turn the evolution of Time Lords ''backwards'', erasing them from existence. To avoid this fate himself, Kotris first had himself genetically altered to become something much closer to the Daleks than to the Time Lords.

Nadeyan won't have it, ''punches Straxus in the face'' and sets out to save Molly, because no matter how much the loss of his family hurt him, it's not worth destroying the life of one more person.

And when the Lord President of Gallifrey found out about the plan, he ordered Straxus to commit HeroicSuicide on Strangor. But Kotris saw it coming and, to preserve his own timeline, prepared temporal drones that would prevent Straxus from killing himself.

The Dalek Time Controller, of course, never actually planned to ''not'' betray Straxus -- and having built an all-seeing portal through some ''serious'' TimeyWimeyBall XanatosSpeedChess, he's able to see into the past and future of any alternate timeline.

Straxus eventually comes face-to-face with his future self, and he and the Doctor manage to reset the timeline, which involves Straxus dying before he can make his HeelFaceTurn and become Kotris. Molly decides to return to the battlefields of France, as a re-written timeline means that the Daleks never attacked -- and her lady Kitty is still alive.

* RippleEffectProofMemory: Molly ends up with one, as does Kotris.

"Kotris" turns out to be a future incarnation of Straxus, who eventually became horrified by the Gallifreyan way of life and decided to engineer a Last Great Time War all of his own. Working together with the Dalek Time Controller, he injected a random Earth girl -- Molly -- with MacGuffin bits ("retrogenical particles") that would activate if she came near Time Lords. This would eventually allow Kotris to turn the evolution of Time Lords ''backwards'', erasing them from existence. And to avoid this fate, Straxus first had himself genetically altered to become something much closer to the Daleks than to the Time Lords. And when the Lord President of Gallifrey found out about the plan, he ordered Straxus to commit HeroicSuicide on Strangor. But Kotris saw it coming and, to preserve his own timeline, prepared temporal drones that would prevent Straxus from killing himself.

Kotris, meanwhile, extracts Molly's memories and works out that she's full of MacGuffin bits ("retrogenical particles") that will be implanted into her by Kotris in the future, as he and the Dalek Time Controller are using Gallifreyan technology to build an all-seeing temporal chamber... thing. Eight and Nadeyan end up in said chamber, in its first stage of construction. They meet up with Molly again, and escape in the TARDIS, which is rather mysteriously right next to them all of a sudden.

The Dalek Time Controller and Kotris watch all that happen from the future, using the temporal chamber, which the Doctor was unable to interfere with -- and note that the Time Lords were responsible for saving the Doctor, thus enabling the temporal chamber to be completed. But Kotris now has a new memory, namely that of meeting Molly centuries before and learning that he would one day fill her up with retrogenical particles. Molly, struggling with MindProbe-induced amnesia and LossOfIdentity, decides that if she's the key, she might as well just throw herself into the Time Vortex. That way, no one can use her eyes anymore to view the Doctor's trajectory. She's had a good life, a fantastic friendship with Kitty, and she's saved the lives of many a soldier. She's been familiar with death all her life, with most of her brothers and sisters having died already. She's fully ready to commit HeroicSuicide, but the Doctor talks her out of it, unable to cope with the idea of another companion dying.

As the Dalek Time Controller and the Lord President of Gallifrey try to out-gambit each other, the Eighth Doctor frees Molly (yanking the neural implants out of her head) and tries to get away.
