Base security that a further intruder craft has been located.
I obey.
Security patrols five and seven will converge on this area.
Priority alert.
Invaders to be located and destroyed.
A message from the Dalek Supreme.
Operation Inferno to be put into execution at once.
Inform all units.
Evacuate patrols to safety areas.
Confirm with units in position.
On confirmation start abbreviated countdown for Operation Inferno.
Coming, Jake.
Guardian of the solar system.
Yes?
I am Zephon.
Master of the fifth galaxy.
Of course.
I had hoped to meet you once before.
At the intergalactic conference of Andromeda.
I did not attend.
And now you know the reason.
The Daleks held a separate council at the same time.
None of us of the outer galaxies went to yours.
Um, except Krantis.
We agreed to send a delegate.
In order that the conference should not become suspicious.
I've been reading the reports on the previous meetings here.
The Daleks have evolved a most interesting plan.
We of the outer galaxies have contributed to it also.
Of course.
But you must admit the Daleks have a genius for war.
That is so.
However, one thing surprises me.
That you, guardian of the solar system,
have agreed to become one of us.
Why the surprise?
As you say, I am guardian of the solar system.
But that is nothing more than a part, however influential, of one galaxy.
Would you be satisfied with just a part of a galaxy?
The solar system is exceptional.
In its power lies influences far outside its own sphere.
Surely by joining with the forces determined to destroy that part,
you mark yourself out as a supreme traitor.
Traitor?
An archaic word for so advanced a man as yourself.
Considering that the planet Thesaur and the emborium and caress
have both at different times tried to depose you,
do you still maintain that you are the mouthpiece for your own galaxy?
I do.
Now that I am all powerful in my position.
True.
But then you do not understand the conflicting powers within our solar system.
Now let us go and take some air.
This is hardly the time or the place for so serious a discussion.
But first we must...
Some air.
Report!
Guardian of the solar system, Chen must be watched.
His ambitions exceed his usefulness.
When he has served his purpose, he, like the others, will be eliminated.
No power in this universe can stop the destruction of the universe.
Eliminated! No power in this universe can stop the Daleks!
Where is the doctor?
He will be here soon.
I don't understand.
Where are we?
I can't think straight.
You must rest.
The tablets I gave you have made you better, but you must still rest.
Tablets? What's going on here?
What are we doing out here in the jungle?
We had to leave the temple.
The Tardis, the evil ones, came.
Evil ones?
He called them the Daleks.
Daleks?
Katarina!
My lord!
Doctor, doctor! What are you both doing here?
The evil ones searched for us, but Brett helped us. He said they were evil.
Yes, well, whoever this Brett is, he's quite right. The Daleks are evil things.
Brett is the man you put in your magic chair.
What? That young ruffian?
But he helped us!
And you released him?
Was I not right to do so?
When the evil ones came, he said we had to flee from your temple.
Oh, my Tardis, child, my Tardis. Yes, you were right.
I mean, he wanted to know that you were quite safe away from the Daleks in there.
How is this young man?
He'll be all right in a minute, sir. Thanks, doctor.
Good, good, good.
Brett says the time is four thousand.
And he came here and only just got away from the evil ones.
He gave Stephen some white tablets, and he's almost well again.
I see, I see.
Yes, and I clamped him in that chair.
And he's the very fellow with the antitoxin.
Well, young man, you'd better pull yourself together. We've got some work to do.
Ah!
All right, I'm all right. We all right.
Aren't you feeling better?
Look, doctor, I think I can manage on my own now.
Careful, careful.
Now, just rest for a minute.
Take a few deep breaths.
Try to run before you can walk, even though you might have to.
Oh, it's better, isn't it?
Yes, thank you.
Tell me, what's happening?
The Daleks, they're using flame guns. I think they're going to burn down the jungle.
Oh, good gracious me. We must try and get back to the Tardis.
We're in grave danger here.
Doctor, don't you see it's a trap?
That's exactly what they want us to do.
Yes, yes, yes, possibly.
But don't act without thinking.
I never do and never shall.
But you were all set to go straight back to the Tardis.
But you said we should never have left it.
Yes, you're quite right, my dear. It's the safest place.
Oh, yes, if the Daleks are waiting outside for us, it'll be suicide.
Oh, not necessarily, not necessarily.
Who was going to play the scapegoat?
The party and Stephen were right.
Well, in this instance, child, he might be, but I know the Daleks.
So do I, Doctor. Look, I say we should stay here until we know exactly what they're going to do.
Yes, and they can track us down at any time.
We hear them?
No.
I mean, the mechanoids.
Oh, they're the robots.
So what?
It is the Daleks. Now, you listen to me, young man. I'm in charge of this situation.
Far!
Will you shut up?
At least that stopped you arguing.
Well, I found my soul.
Now, look here, I don't care what happens to you, but I have got to warn Earth.
Yes, and you will have to do far more than that. If the Daleks are doing something drastic, then we have to stop the Daleks.
Now, will you shut up? Sir?
One, we have to murder Dalek hands.
I know, young man.
And two, get the information back to Earth.
Now, just listen, listen, listen. Think back for a moment. Just think back.
If the Daleks are going to attack Earth, as you seem to fear, then you must tell Earth to look back in the history of the year 2157 and that the Daleks are going to attack again.
History will show how to deal with them.
Who cares about history?
Oh, listen, I can smell smoke.
Yes, look.
Yes, you're quite right, young man. They're going to trap us.
Doctor, it's like a wall of fire.
Oh, no, no, no, not quite, not quite, my dear. I've got to get out of here. Come on, this way.
It's the way to the Dalek city.
Well, of course, that's the last place they will expect us to go, Cumberland.
Cumberland.
The magnificent power of the flame.
Primitive, but efficient.
You too would have used ultrasonic?
If I had nothing better.
Well, the meeting must start soon.
You appear so keen to be a model delegate, one might think you are afraid of the Daleks.
A dangerous statement. Remember where you are.
Ha! The solar system is so far behind that it believes the Daleks need to eavesdrop.
Of course not.
The Daleks needed me. Without my help, they would never have got the cooperation of the masters of Salation and Beowulf.
We are on equal terms.
Really? Three galaxies for the price of one.
I do not understand you.
Perhaps I am one of those who knows my place. Are you coming in to take your seat?
They will not start the meeting without me. I feel like waiting here.
Is it on?
It was expected. His usefulness is over.
Look at that.
Look at those ships. Beautiful, are not they?
That one in the middle, that is from Earth. That is Mavic Chens.
Do you know that spaceship?
Yes, I do. It belongs to the guardian of the solar system.
Then you know how to fly it?
Yes, of course I do.
That is the one to go for, is not it?
I can not believe it. It does not make sense.
If you know how to use it, what is the worry?
He is the guardian, do not you understand?
So what? We do not want him, just his ship.
He is the ultimate guardian of the solar system. Now what is he doing here with the Daleks?
That is what we have to find out.
You both be quiet, please.
We have to take that spaceship. We have to warn us.
We have to.
Where is the master of Zephon?
He will be here.
Eventually.
Search for him.
What is it?
I have not seen anything like this. It is hideous.
Well, obvious enough, my boy. It is quite obvious. He is one of the representatives.
Look at how we managed to find these vines.
Now we can get to the ship.
No, no. Not yet, not yet.
Not until we find out exactly what the Daleks are planning.
And this may be our only chance.
I do not understand.
I am going to that conference.
Doctor, that is crazy.
Oh.
You cannot go to that conference?
Why not? If I wear his cloak, why not?
Should they find you, they will kill you.
Oh, nonsense. You three can take over the spaceship and I can join you later.
Are you sure you will be safe?
Oh, yes, don't worry, my child. Don't worry.
I found this and I don't know whether it is relevant or not, but hold on to it safely.
Where did you find it?
Oh, in the jungle.
Now, I want you to give me enough time to get to that meeting and find out exactly what is going on.
And then I will head back to Chen's spaceship.
How long will that take?
Well, I must leave that to your own judgment.
If, of course, you hear any kind of uproar, then you will have to get into the spaceship and go up without me.
Doctor, we cannot leave you.
Oh, nonsense, nonsense. Earth must be warned about the Daleks and about Chen.
You are a very brave man.
Rubbish. Rubbish, my boy. I am only doing what has to be done.
Now, come on. Help me onto this boat. Be quick about it. Come along.
As the representative said far, far this way, he and the Earth creature went to the reception area.
Has he returned? Only the creature from Earth returned this way.
Xephon must still be there. Come with me. He has to be found.
Representative Xephon, the meeting is about to begin. You will follow me.
The old man certainly has got nerve.
The strange one will not hurt him.
I hope not. Anyway, he is doing his part. We must do ours. Let's get that ship.
The master of the fifth galaxy has been meant to join us.
Take your place.
You seem lost, Representative Xephon. Here is your place next to me.
The seventh meeting is now in session.
Representatives, I have important news. The time destructor is now completed.
It only requires the core to be fitted.
Marvick Chen, guardian of the solar system, will address the meeting.
As your most recent ally, and the newest member to stand in this great universal council,
I am delighted to be able to make so significant a contribution to our conquest of the universe.
I now present you with the core of the time destructor, a full M of Terranium, the rarest mineral in the universe.
It's taken 50 Earth years to acquire even this amount.
If it has taken so long for the solar system to acquire it, why was not one of us of the outside galaxies asked to provide it?
As the Daleks know, Terranium can only be found on one of the dead planets of the solar system.
Without this, the time destructor is useless. All the plans made here could not succeed.
I, Marvick Chen, give you the core of the time destructor.
I'm taking over this spaceship. Over there. Tie them up.
The men will not be found. No, not unless the Daleks patrol the landing area.
That's the one place they won't be patrolling. Let's hope not. Otherwise it's the end of the Doctor.
He must come. He must come.
We've got to go.
We mustn't leave him.
Great one, don't leave us. Don't let the strange beings catch.
He's been caught. We've got to leave.
No, he said we had to leave.
No!
Stop! Without him, we can't reach the place of suspension.
We're going without him.
