- When a mad miscreant whips up a time machine, it takes The Avengers no time at all to show him the "era" of his ways.
- Notorious criminals are escaping but nobody knows where and two agents investigating their last known location, Tudor mansion Mackidockie Court, are both killed. When the avengers link the house to the murders Emma is captured by its owner, Waldo Thyssen, who claims to have built a time machine, through which the miscreants are escaping to previous centuries, and sends her through to the sixteenth century to be tortured by himself in the guise of an Elizabethan ancestor. Steed works out the whereabouts of the house and follows, stepping through time to save Emma.—don @ minifie-1
- Notorious men "on the run" begin disappearing, along with their ill-gotten gains. Someone has devised a fool-proof "escape route" for the criminals. Steed follows the escape route first, meeting up with Waldo Thyssen, who claims to have invented a time machine. He sends the miscreants back in time for a cut of the spoils, where they can never be caught. Steed goes back to the 18th century in a trial run, where he meets Waldo's forebear. In the meantime, Emma follows the escape route to find Steed. She meets Waldo and decides to go back to the gracious, mannered Georgian era. While she's in-transit, Waldo finds out that she's not an evildoer and reroutes her to the 15th century, when cruel Matthew Thyssen lived. Steed returns from the 18th century, where he finds Mrs. Peel gone and realizes she's on her way back in time. Mrs. Peel wakes up in the 15th century, where Matthew puts her in the stocks. He wants to know how she came there, and he and his henchman warm up the branding iron to get the truth from her. Steed makes his way back through the different eras to rescue Mrs. Peel from Waldo, who has been playing the parts of all his ancestors. Waldo killed the evildoers and took their spoils. The time machine consists of some colored lights and sleeping gas, and the rooms in Waldo's mansion have doubled as the different eras. Mrs. Peel and Steed leave the house and escape to the present.
