Under the command of
In the present, the Verron puzzle box
In the past, while the Trickster has still not yet manifested, Sarah Jane repairs the car. Overhearing what Rani tells Sarah Jane about the car, and noticing their touch instantly withers any organic life they hold, Sarah Jane's parents realise driving off in the car will stop the disaster. After telling their daughter how proud they are of her, they both enter the car and drive off. The Trickster fades away; while Sarah Jane could not convince her parents to die, the plan never considered that her parents would willingly sacrifice themselves to save the world. Back in the restored present, Clyde gives Krislok the puzzle box as promised, and Krislok celebrates his freedom.
