Sally met Mr. Meadows who wanted to buy her shop and also the two shops on either side of Sarah, so that he could use them as a car showroom. After hesitating, she took Dr. Dale's advice and decided - subject to a good offer - to sell. Gwen was taken to the cinema one evening by Dr. Gardiner. Mrs. Date won her point at the Hospital Committee meeting and will now be able to go ahead with her Christmas plans for the children. Sally was very touched when Richard Fulton again proposed to her, but she did not accept. Mrs. Dale and some of the family went to Jenny's end-of-term play; she was quite a success and a London agent told her afterwards that he might be able to get her a small film part. Edward Fielding asked Isabel to go to Stockholm with him for Christmas. Mrs. Dale advised Isabel to go, even though she was really occupied with her rehearsals. Linda told Bob she was going in a party to the Chelsea Arts Ball, and he decided he would like to do the same thing.

Jet Morgan and his crew are stranded on the Earth having returned to it some thousands of years before, or after, they left it. The discovery of a stone knife outside the ship suggested that they had landed back in the Stone Age. But this could not be reconciled with the fact that at the same time space craft quite unlike their own ship, had flown over them and apparently observed them. Then early one morning a whole fleet of these circular ships landed close by and, as Jet and his crew watched through the televiewer, they opened up to allow the creatures who controlled the strange craft to descend.
