The Time Meddler: I battle the Meddling Monk, trying to maintain the proper flow of history on Earth. The War Games: With no where else to turn, I go to the Time Lords for help in defeating the War Lords. And what do they do? Arrest me! But at least this allows you to see the wonderful case I give in defense of myself... Spearhead From Space: ...even though the blasted Time Lords refused to listen to me. Forcing me to change my appearance, they exiled me to Earth and took away my knowledge of the TARDIS. All just in time for me to have to deal with the invading Nestene and their army of Autons.
