While working on Tardis, Dr. Who accidentally breaks his dematerialization circuit, which causes him and his granddaughter Susan to be teleported to various alien worlds for a limited time, with no way for Dr. Who to stop it or control it, while managing to get some stowaways along the way. While hopping from planet to planet, this catches the attention of The Daleks, who chase after Dr. Who to destroy him and his invention once and for all, with a space and time machine of their own.
