The Temptation of Sarah Jane Smith
The Temptation of Sarah Jane Smith is the fifth serial of the second series of the British science fiction television series The Sarah Jane Adventures. It first aired in two weekly parts on CBBC on 17 and 24 November 2008. In the story, Sarah Jane Smith is emotionally manipulated by a malicious chaos-causing entity called The Trickster into preventing the accidental death of her parents in the past, in order to open a fault in time and bring chaos upon the Earth. Plot Under the command of the Trickster, Krislok of the Graske tricks Sarah Jane and Luke into following him through a time fissure to the village of Foxgrove on the day in 1951 in which Sarah Jane's parents abandoned her as a baby by the side of the road shortly before being killed in a car accident. Ignoring Luke's warning that changing time is not a good idea, she sabotages her parents' car with her sonic lipstick to prevent them from leaving. Sarah Jane and Luke go through the time fissure again and discover that present-day London has been destroyed. The Trickster then appears before Sarah Jane and mockingly thanks her for all she has done for him.
