After the Doctor then manages to get separated from Anji as well, he discovers that the triplets have taken control of Earthworld and left android doubles (or rather, [[IncrediblyLamePun triples]]) in their places. He does some more digging and finds out that the triplets have been locked up for years for (supposedly) attacking their mother, leaving her comatose and brain dead. The years of confinement, with no one but their androids for company, has leached whatever sanity the girls may have possessed out of them and left them violent and cruel. The Doctor runs around corridors for a bit while Fitz fights in a [[ForcedPrizefight death match]] with an Elvis android and Anji impersonates Queen Guinevere (who, due to cultural fragmenting and language drift, is now called Gwinnyveer).

The Doctor eventually discovers the truth about the triplets' mother: she's been in a coma for years and the triplets have replaced many of her internal organs and other body parts with android technology to keep her alive, simulating brain function with a memory scanning machine they built themselves. A machine they decide to use on Fitz. After reliving all of his deepest memories (including the memory of his birth), he is told by the girls that his memories are all on the surface of his mind, rather than buried, because they were planted their by the TARDIS when she reprogrammed his head. Poor Fitz. The Doctor wants to use this machine to regain his own memories, something Fitz thinks is a terrible idea, though he refuses to tell the Doctor why.

Fitz is quickly separated from the Doctor and Anji, who soon have their own troubles as they are arrested and accused of terrorism. With the help of a few teen rebels whose name coincidentally matches Anji's, they [[CardboardPrison escape custody]] and set off to investigate New Jupiter and locate Fitz, who's having problems of his own. He is captured by a set of ruthless thirteen year old triplets, the princesses of New Jupiter. With a bit of fast talking he's able to convince them that he is actually Fitz Fortune, an Earth rock star more popular than Elvis, and gives them a quick performance to throw off their suspicions. He is surprised by how well he does, considering how long he's been out of practice, before realizing that his new-found talent is the result of [[Recap/EighthDoctorAdventuresInterferencePart1 his cloning]], and subsequently suffers from a truly massive [[HeroicBSOD BSOD]].
