DOCTOR: Mmm, killer insects.

159
00:13:02,288 --> 00:13:04,768
Doctor, I have a message for you.

160
00:13:54,488 --> 00:13:56,728
Let Mel come toward me.

161
00:13:56,888 --> 00:14:00,568
I've kept my side of the bargain.
You've got what you want.

162
00:14:13,928 --> 00:14:16,168
So stupid.

163
00:14:17,248 --> 00:14:21,728
You are not a worthy opponent
for the Rani.

164
00:14:26,568 --> 00:14:28,888
What's he crowing on about, Mel?

165
00:14:33,248 --> 00:14:37,728
A hologram!
As substantial as the Rani's scruples.

166
00:14:44,608 --> 00:14:46,088
(BREATHING RAGGEDLY)

167
00:15:09,288 --> 00:15:12,368
As soon as the machine is operational,
increase the brain stimulation.

168
00:15:12,448 --> 00:15:14,248
But that would take it
above the danger level.

169
00:15:14,328 --> 00:15:17,328
I'm in danger of missing the solstice,
which is far more important.

170
00:15:17,408 --> 00:15:20,208
The computer control
needs constant monitoring.

171
00:15:20,288 --> 00:15:21,968
I can't manage alone.

172
00:15:22,048 --> 00:15:25,688
So I've anticipated,
and I've got just the expert for you.

173
00:15:36,608 --> 00:15:38,088
(SPUTTERING)

174
00:15:38,168 --> 00:15:40,968
- BEYUS, she's your responsibility.
- Mine?

175
00:15:41,248 --> 00:15:43,768
But I can't govern her,
she's not a Lakertyan.

176
00:15:43,848 --> 00:15:48,008
Just make certain she understands
the penalty for non-cooperation.

177
00:15:50,288 --> 00:15:51,608
(SCREAMS)

178
00:15:57,928 --> 00:16:01,608
Doctor, in my opinion, returning to
the laboratory is a pointless exercise.

179
00:16:01,688 --> 00:16:03,184
I have a feeling Mel's beyond all help.

180
00:16:03,208 --> 00:16:05,208
Oh, the Rani would never go
to those extremes.

181
00:16:05,288 --> 00:16:08,368
- She never does anything without reason.
- Well, then why the hologram?

182
00:16:08,448 --> 00:16:10,768
Why didn't she just release Mel?

183
00:16:11,608 --> 00:16:14,128
A bird in the hand
keeps the Doctor away.

184
00:16:14,208 --> 00:16:15,448
You're probably right.

185
00:16:15,528 --> 00:16:19,008
Only on this occasion,
it'll have the opposite effect.

186
00:16:21,608 --> 00:16:23,128
(WHIRRING)

187
00:16:32,288 --> 00:16:34,688
RANI: The increase in brain activity
is not enough.

188
00:16:34,768 --> 00:16:36,448
I'm going to miss the solstice.

189
00:16:36,528 --> 00:16:40,008
URAK: Perhaps the stimulation
of a greater genius.

190
00:16:40,088 --> 00:16:44,588
A brilliance that
surpasses all others, Mistress.

191
00:16:45,488 --> 00:16:49,168
Do I gather you're suggesting
that I climb into one of those cabinets?

192
00:16:49,248 --> 00:16:52,728
Your capable presence is wasted in here,

193
00:16:52,808 --> 00:16:56,928
and I could operate the machine.

194
00:16:57,688 --> 00:16:59,648
Yes, I'm sure you could.

195
00:17:01,568 --> 00:17:04,368
Urak! Come with me.

196
00:17:07,048 --> 00:17:08,848
(DOOR SLIDES OPEN)

197
00:17:09,608 --> 00:17:12,488
Prepare the Doctor's cabinet
for occupation.

198
00:17:13,448 --> 00:17:15,128
Well, that'll be a waste of effort.

199
00:17:15,208 --> 00:17:17,448
You've got to find him first
and then catch him.

200
00:17:17,528 --> 00:17:19,848
I need neither find nor catch him.

201
00:17:19,928 --> 00:17:23,368
The bumbling fool's ready-made
as a sacrificial lamb.

202
00:17:23,448 --> 00:17:25,008
He's shrewder than you think.

203
00:17:25,088 --> 00:17:27,768
Underestimating the Doctor
is a common fault.

204
00:17:27,848 --> 00:17:30,928
- Really?
- He's got qualities you'll never have.

205
00:17:32,248 --> 00:17:36,008
- Such as?
- Something I'd call humanity.

206
00:17:36,088 --> 00:17:40,008
(SCOFFS) You're as sentimental as he is.
Get on with your work.

207
00:17:40,968 --> 00:17:42,408
Don't antagonise her.

208
00:17:42,488 --> 00:17:46,368
She has only to press a button
for every Lakertyan to be exterminated.

209
00:17:46,448 --> 00:17:50,128
I could nominate a few candidates
for extermination myself.

210
00:17:55,568 --> 00:17:58,368
Mmm. A space rocket launcher,
sure enough.

211
00:17:58,728 --> 00:18:01,048
But have you noticed
it's got a fixed trajectory?

212
00:18:01,128 --> 00:18:03,888
IKONA: No doubt it'll still play havoc
with our planet.

213
00:18:03,968 --> 00:18:07,048
Maybe as a side effect, Ikona,
not the intention.

214
00:18:07,128 --> 00:18:10,248
I'd say the target is
the asteroid of strange matter,

215
00:18:10,328 --> 00:18:12,968
which means the launcher is locked
into a precise time.

216
00:18:13,048 --> 00:18:15,568
Could it be the solstice?
That's due.

217
00:18:15,648 --> 00:18:20,148
Assuming it is, the Rani's overriding
priority will be to meet that countdown.

218
00:18:20,688 --> 00:18:24,168
No more setbacks or delays.
I must go back to the laboratory.

219
00:18:24,248 --> 00:18:27,288
That sealed chamber,
I've got to get in there.

220
00:18:27,688 --> 00:18:29,168
Out of the frying pan,
into the mire.

222
00:18:30,408 --> 00:18:33,648
Right, Ikona,
start the diversionary tactics.

223
00:18:33,728 --> 00:18:36,208
Have a care, Doctor.
This bluff worked once.

224
00:18:36,288 --> 00:18:39,088
The Tetraps might not fall for it again.

We must be able to do something.
Can't we make it blow a fuse?

228
00:19:27,248 --> 00:19:30,328
Well, what good would that do?
At least he'll be kept alive in here.

Don't try to reason me into compliance,
Beyus. You're wasting your breath.

You, Lakertyan.
Connect this specimen to the main input.

No, leave him alone! I won't let you do...

Now, listen to me.
They are completely without conscience.

236
00:20:05,408 --> 00:20:07,728
They will not hesitate to kill.

All went as you planned, Mistress.

Good.

- Set the temperature gauge, Mel.
- I'm setting nothing.

240
00:20:28,648 --> 00:20:31,928
- Stubbornness will not help the Doctor.
- And putting him in here will?

00:20:32,008 --> 00:20:34,128
Have some twisted philosophy,
if you like.

Make certain that the levels
are kept stable.

If you're hoping for any positive results,

247
00:20:43,728 --> 00:20:47,408
you're going to be disappointed.
The Doctor won't collaborate.

I'm sure, were he able,

00:20:49,408 --> 00:20:53,088
he'd express his appreciation of
such unstinted confidence.
