Sarah Jane arrives in a haunted house in 1889. She meets a girl, Emily Morris, who is looking for the ghosts having recently lost her mother. At eight o'clock the "haunting" begins. They hear a woman talking and the children she is babysitting playing with fire. Sarah Jane soon determines that the "ghosts" are not from the past, however, but the future – where a fire will start and kill the children, and the Chronosteen is the key that locks the children inside in the future. Sarah Jane resets the clock to eight o'clock and they see the children in the locked room playing with a candle. Emily calls out to the children and they hear her; it is her fear from losing her mother that connects her with them. Emily uses this ability to turn the key in the lock and the children escape. Sarah Jane returns to the present, but Emily holds onto the key. She passes the key to her granddaughter, Angela Price, to help close the unstable time windows back in the shop on the day of the newspaper article about the alien sighting more than 100 years later.
