If they had done so, the fourth, fifth and sixth series would have been termed quaternary, quinary and senary. Humorously, they chose "Quandary", which means "dilemma", "Quintessential", which today means "the most perfect example of something" although the original meaning of quintessential was "fifth element"and "Hexagonal", which refers to something else entirely. Most of the original radio series cast returned, with the The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy: Quandary Phase of three, due to their deaths: Richard Vernon died as Slartibartfastreplaced by Richard Griffiths ; Peter Jones diedThe Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy: Quandary Phase by his friend William Franklynwith some brief excerpts from Jones' original narration used in Fit the Thirteenth of the radio series disguised as the Book's speech-generation system changing as part of updates to the Guide from the publisher; David Tate diedwho played a multitude of minor roles in the two original radio series including Eddie, the Heart of Gold's computer.

Since the opening of the third book starts at the same place and time prehistoric Earth as the opening of the second radio series, the entire Secondary Phase was dismissed as one of Zaphod's "psychotic episodes" including events that did take place in the books. The US edition of the same novel substituted "Belgium" for "fuck", as well as the explanation for why the former word is considered to be devastatingly rude in the rest of the galaxy, which is drawn from Fit the Tenth The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy: Quandary Phase the Secondary Phase. The broadcast version avoids saying "fuck" on radio by well-timed crashes and explosions—the CD version moves these so that the "fuck" is audible. Arthur wakes up in a cave on pre-historic Earth thus ignoring the events of the Secondary Phaseon the day, four years after he last saw Ford Prefectthat Ford arrives back. Ford carries news that he has detected disturbances in the "space-time wash", and that they might be able to escape. The disturbance turns out to be an old sofa, which materialises in a field. They chase the sofa as it runs off, and then are transported elsewhere. Zaphod and Trillian are on the Heart of Goldwithout Marvin. Zaphod is extremely hung over, and upset that Trillian is dismissing the events of The Secondary Phase as a "psychotic episode". Trillian wishes to do something and is getting increasingly annoyed at Zaphod. After preparing a fabulous meal, and Zaphod still refusing to come out of the bathroom, she teleports away, telling the ship to "transport me the hell out of Zaphod Beeblebrox's life. Meanwhile, Marvin is on a swamp on Sqornshellous Zeta, conversing with the native life-forms, mattresses. He is circling around and around on one leg, while his artificial i. Arthur and Ford arrive at Lord's Cricket Ground on the sofa that they had caught in the previous episode. They have arrived in the final Test Match in the Ashesin the middle of the field. A policeman apprehends them, and they retire to the pavilion. Watching the match, Arthur drinks some tea and glances upon a newspaper. He notices the date on the newspaper, and realises that it was from The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy: Quandary Phase day before the Earth was demolished. A ball lands in Arthur's bag, and when the fielder comes to collect it, Arthur decides to keep it. With the planet about to be demolished again, they then look for another lift from the planet. They discover a spaceship, hidden by a " Somebody Else's Problem field ", hidden behind a screen. Slartibartfast The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy: Quandary Phase that he has arrived because "something terrible is about to happen". He walks to the centre of the cricket pitch, and asks to be given the Ashes saying that they are "vitally important for the past, present and future safety of the Galaxy". Another spaceship arrives. Eleven white robots, carrying bats, and wearing rocket pads on their shins dressed like cricketerscome suddenly out, and start attacking the spectators and players with their bats, using them to hit grenade-like explosives at the humans present. They take the Ashes, say "we declare", and go back into their ship. Ford and Arthur catch a lift with Slartibartfast on his ship. Meanwhile, Marvin is once again making conversation with a mattress. A similar ship to before arrives, and white robots get out and take Marvin's one remaining leg. After a brief while, they return and decide to take all of Marvin instead. Investigating further, they discover that the Krikkitmen, a previously peaceful people, built their first spaceship The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy: Quandary Phase a year, after a spaceship landed on their planet. The planet and its sun had been previously obscured in a dust cloud that left the Krikkitmen unaware of the existence or even possibility of existence of stars. It is considered remarkable that they constructed a working ship in just a year. After they saw the rest of the universe existed, they decided to annihilate it. Meanwhile, on the Heart of GoldZaphod Beeblebrox hears the noise of thousands of people saying "Wop". He intercepts them on the bridge, where he is told they want the "Golden Bail", the ship's Infinite Improbability Drive. They take it, shoot him, and leave. Pag's sentence is that Krikkit will be locked in an envelope of "Slo-Time", until the universe has ended, when it will be released, thus saving the universe from attack from Krikkit, and allowing Krikkit to exist in isolation after the end of the universe. However, a Krikkit ship escaped. Slartibartfast notes that parts of the key to the Wikkit Gate, sealing the envelope of Slo-Time, have been re-appearing. After a failed attempt to recover the Wooden Pillar the AshesSlartibartfast plans to go to a party, to locate the Silver Bail. Ford disagrees with this objective but agrees with the concept of going to a party. They teleport from the ship. The episode ends on a cliff-hanger, with the previously unintroduced character of Agrajag saying "Bet you weren't expecting to see me again. The episode includes several Guide interludes, notably the story of Lallafa the poet, and a description of Brockian Ultra-Cricket. The episode begins with Arthur, who has been The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy: Quandary Phase by Agrajag, who claims that Arthur has killed previous incarnations of him hundreds of times. He also claims to have been the bowl of petunias that materialised into existence in Fit the Third. Eventually it transpires one of the deaths was at Stavromula Beta, where someone tried to assassinate Arthur, and he ducked, hitting Agrajag. Arthur however has never been there. Agrajag cries "I've brought you here too zarking soon", but decides to attempt to kill Arthur anyway. Arthur and Agrajag The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy: Quandary Phase, and Agrajag dies. Arthur escapes from the Cathedral of Hate, to which he had been diverted, by running into a passageway in the mountain. He notes that he has somehow ended up with the wrong bag—one he lost on Earth many years ago. He trips, and falls, only The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy: Quandary Phase discover that he is flying. He experiments with flying for a while, only to be hit in the small of the back by the party which Ford and Slartibartfast are attempting to enter. The party is flying as well, and Ford and Slartibartfast are on a ledge around the building, not being permitted The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy: Quandary Phase due to the lack of a bottle. Arthur remembers that his bag contains a bottle of Retsinaand this gets them entry. They see Trillian and Thor at the party, where Thor is chatting Trillian up. Before they are actually able to find it, the Krikkit robots appear, massacre the party-goers and take the Silver Bail. Arthur tricks Thor into walking out of the building by challenging him to fight, leaving Trillian with no choice but to come with them. The Krikkitmen now have all the parts of the Wikkit Key, and Slartibartfast notes that their next move must be to go to the Wikkit Gate itself and try to intervene.
