"Subtitles by subXpacio" "Doctor Who Season 8 The claws of Axos 2 of 4" "Original Air Date: 1971/03/20" "Bill?" " That's Jo!" "Come on!" " Sir George, wait!" " Now, regarding an agreement..." " The emergency is in sector seven." "I'm sorry." "I must investigate." "I must make my report to the minister." "I think I can take care of this perpetual interference from these UNIT people." "Jo!" "Are you all right?" "What's happened?" "I saw this thing, It was shapeless and horrible and..." "It's all right, my dear, don't be frightened." "Miss Grant, what are you doing here?" "I gave you explicit orders." "I was following you in, sir, and I thought I heard Bill Filer's voice." " Filer?" "In here?" " I tried to find him, and then suddenly this awful thing appeared." " It came straight out of the wall at me." " I think I can explain." "We are close to organic power sources here." "Emission from the energy cells would have affected your sense perception, almost certainly causing you to hallucinate." "And the voices?" "Well, it's all part of the same thing, I'm afraid." "You must have been hearing things." "Hearing things?" "Look, Jo, Don't worry." "The same thing happened to me when I first came in here." "Doctor, I wasn't imagining things." "I tell you I heard Bill Filer's voice." " That won't help you, Filer." " Go to hell." "Now look, if you do what I say, we can both escape from here." "Yeah, sure, how?" "That ganglion on the wall behind you, you see it?" "Yeah?" "That's the nerve centre of this section of Axos." "Hit that, and the shock will disorientate it temporarily." " That's our chance?" " That's our only chance." "Okay." "I'll try." "Filer!" "Go!" " Your call to the Ministry, sir." " Just wait outside, will you?" " Sir?" " Just wait outside." "Very good, sir." "Minister?" "Will you scramble or shall I, sir?" "Just your report, Chinn." "I'm sure that will be quite garbled enough." "Yes, sir." "Well, as I anticipated, we are having trouble with these UNIT people, sir." " We, Chinn?" "We?" " Well, I am, sir." "Are you quite sure you can handle this matter, Chinn?" "Yes, sir, yes, of course About the special powers, sir?" "Because if you are not, just remember... it's your head on the block, Chinn, not mine." "Yes, well, I think we ought to look to the future too." "There are tremendous advantages for humanity in Axonite." "Yes, tremendous material advantages, but I doubt if even Axonite could increase the growth of human common sense." "But since you seem hell bent on getting hold of it," "I suggest the best thing to do is to restrict its use to your laboratories... until we've made a full analysis of all its properties." " We?" " You want to cooperate with us?" " Scientifically, yes." " Winser?" " It depends." " On what?" "Who leads the investigation?" "Why, you do, of course." "About my request, sir?" "Special powers have already been granted." "Do your best to keep me informed, old chap." "After all, you are our man on the spot, Chinn." "In more ways than one." "Minister?" "Right, Brigadier." "What about me?" "I insist you release me!" "I kept my side of the bargain, I say.." "Silence." " Well, where are you taking me?" " Replication sector." "Very well." "All we ask is your guarantee... that the sole distribution right to all Axonite materials... be vested in the British government." "To bring the greatest possible benefit to all Earth peoples," "Axonite distribution must be worldwide." "I think I can give you that assurance." "In that case, all that remains is for me to hand over samples of Axonite... for your investigation to begin." "Thank you." "Thank you." "Begin re-absorption." "Mr Chinn?" "What's been going on here?" "I warn you, you have no authority." "All over, Brigadier." "No further concern of yours." "Agreement has been reached." "Britain has the world rights to Axonite." " Not as far as I'm concerned." " I'm warning you, Brigadier." "I'll take that, please." "Thank you." "Right, shall we go?" "Doctor, Miss Grant." "After you, Mr Chinn." " What's going on here, Yates?" " Regulars suddenly took over, sir." "Took over?" "We couldn't very well let them fire on them, could we, sir?" "What about the rest of the men?" "They've all been arrested and so, Brigadier, have you?" "If you will excuse me." " You have no right." " On the contrary, I have every right." "You're all under security arrest under the Emergency Powers Act." " Captain, this is an illegal act." " I have my orders, Brigadier." "I must tell you, Mr. Chinn I shall make every attempt to warn the UN." "Captain, I want all these men put under 24-hour armed guard." "They are to see no one." "No one at all, do you understand?" "If you need me, I shall be with Sir George." " Quite a quandary." " About which side you're on, you mean?" "Why should they foist this gift onto us?" "They must want something." "Jo, tell me again about that creature that you saw." "You mean you believe me?" "Of course I believe you." "I always did." "Now then, you're quite sure it was Bill Filer that you heard?" "This body they found... was there no identification?" "Apparently not." "When they touched it, it just disintegrated." "There was a car too." "Bill Filer's." " Perhaps he got here ahead of us." " And they didn't find any sign of him?" "No." "Perhaps the same thing happened to him." "No." "No, he can't be dead." " He's still inside that ship." " I only hope you're right, Jo." "Look, we must get him out." "We'll make the Axons let us search." "You'll do no such thing." "As far as I'm concerned, the man has ceased to exist." "As far as you're concerned, Mr Chinn, nothing exists except this contemptible underhanded deal." "I don't intend to prejudice anything at this stage." "This man Filer will not cause an incident." "There will be no search and that is that." "Captain, have them both taken to the complex and put with the others." "Remember, no contact with anyone at all." "Right, sir." "Not him." "The Doctor's going to help with the preliminary investigations into Axonite." "Very well." "But understand, the slightest hint of delay or sabotage, it's your head on the block, not mine." " We have done well, Time Lord." " Of course, the humans are fools." "So far, your predictions have proved correct." "This is indeed a rich planet you have brought us to." "And am I to be released?" "As yet, we have only gained a foothold." "For the maximum nutrient value," "Axonite must encircle the world within the next 72 hours." "And for that to happen, your secret arrangement with the British Government... must be made universally known." "Now, I can do that for you." "Give me my freedom." "Your freedom?" "The bargain, you remember, was that if we spared you and your Tardis, you would lead us to this planet, in return for the death of the Doctor." "And the destruction of all life on Earth." "Of course." "But our sensors detected something you neglected to tell us." "This Doctor is also a Time Lord, is he not?" "No one is irreplaceable." "This brings in the whole output with the Reactor One?" "Yes." "The particles are accelerated round and round the cyclotron... in an ever increasing electro-magnetic field." "Eventually, we hope to have controlled acceleration up to the speed of light." "Now, once beyond that point, the particles will be travelling in the fourth dimension." "I will be able to begin my experiments with the nature of time itself." "With the ultimate aim of making travel in time possible?" "Why not?" "Yes, most impressive." "Much larger than my own set-up, of course." " Your set-up?" " Yes." "The other Time Lord will be with the Axonite." "Find him and bring him here." "You're trying to tell me that you actually achieved time travel... and published nothing?" " In Britain, no." " Where, then?" "Elsewhere." "Yes, elsewhere." "And I suppose you can't remember." "Yes, as a matter of fact that's the trouble, I can't." "How convenient." "Most inconvenient, actually." "You know, I was thinking, if you'd really like to take a look at my TARDIS, maybe I could arrange to have it brought down." ""Tardis"?" "Are you serious?" "Absolutely." "Perhaps we can get it operational with the help of this stuff." "No, Doctor, I simply won't hear of it." "Don't you see?" "It's the simplest way to break it down." "But, you're asking me to risk 50 million pounds worth of equipment." "Look, all we have to do is take the Axonite, put it in the light accelerator and crack it down into particles." "No." "It's far too hazardous." "The whole damn lot could go up." "If it is a thinking molecule, it should analyse itself." " All we have to do is read the printout." " Analyse itself?" " Is the spectroscope set?" " Spectroscope?" "You might as well use a magnifying glass." "What was that, Doctor?" "Nothing, my dear Holmes." "I know their ways on Earth." "I can move around freely." "I'm familiar with their systems, their organisations." "You don't have time to learn these things." "For the nutrition cycle to be activated in the next 72 hours, you must have worldwide distribution by then." "Data confirms feasibilities." "Queries motivation." "Decision reads:" "Release Time Lord, but retain his Tardis, time capsule, until mission completed." " But I must have my Tardis." " Negative." "Data indicates time capsule unnecessary for success of mission." "Well, at least give me back my laser gun." "I may need to defend myself." "Return of laser gun is acceptable." "Possession of time capsule will prevent hostile action." "Cell area." "Emergency." "Emergency, emergency." " Well?" " Not a thing." "Damn it." "It should show some response to something." "Well, it's been programmed not to." "Don't you see?" "It's deliberately resisting analysis." " Well, isn't it?" " Well, go on." "Say it." " Say what?" " I told you so." "I told you so." "Particle acceleration, it's the only answer." "If you won't risk your own equipment, we can try mine." "I thought you said it was US." "A certain malfunction of the drive system, but the other components are all right." "We could put them through the main reactor." "Well, if we... can bypass the malfunction and your light accelerators compatible, it might work." "Well, it's the only thing left to do, isn't it?" " If you could persuade the powers that..." " Yes, I... suppose you're right." "I'll see what I can do." "Right." "I am the Master." "You will obey me." "You will obey me." " Doctor." " Filer, so you got away?" "Come with me, Doctor." " Come with you?" " Come to Axos." "I won't go to Axos or anywhere else with you." "In any case, you're not Filer." " Come to Axos." " Out of the way, Doc." " No, Doc." " Doc?" " Boy, am I glad that's not me in there." " Are you sure, it isn't?" " Yeah, quite sure." " Good." "Come on." "You will load the Doctor's Tardis onto your lorry." "You will need some help." "I will need some help." " Get the guard to give you a hand." " The guard." "Now." "I tell you, Brigadier, they replicated Bill here." " Replicated?" " Faked, copied, duplicated." " But how?" " Look, does it matter how, Brigadier?" "We haven't got the time to explain." " Axonite, the copying molecule." " Yes, thank you, Jo." " Yes, but I still don't see..." " Bill, was the Master in Axos, or not?" "He is sure is, or was until he escaped." "Which was why they sent Filer, or the fake Filer, after me." " Then they're not human at all?" " Human, they're not even humanoid." "Well, according to the Master, they're some kind of... scavenger." "You know, no planet, nothing." "The whole thing's just a pack of lies, Brigadier." " Apart from Axonite copying molecules." " Yes, quite." "Look, we've got to stop Chinn getting hold of that stuff." " Right..." " Nobody move, please." "Take his gun." " I'm sorry, Mr Filer." " Captain, listen." "Brigadier, I already have." " And what is your decision?" " Unfortunately, I have my orders." " Which are?" " To confine you to the laboratory." "Trap One, do you read me?" "Over." "Hello, Greyhound, this is Trap One." "Do you read me?" "Over." "No use, Harry." " Who are you?" " The Brigadier sent me." "But what's going on..." "You have a top priority message to send to the United Nations." "I will tell you what to say." "My dear Winser," "I hope you'll forgive this unauthorised use of your precious equipment," "But in case there is an accident," "I'm making this recording of what not to do." "I am about to place the Axonite in the light accelerator." "Now, the idea is to split off a stream of Axonite particles... and accelerate them through time." "In this way, we shall force it to analyse itself on the printout." "Right, here goes." "Reactor One activated." "Accelerating." "Point one." "Two." "Three." "It's reacting." "Speed of light now." "Emergency." "Nutrition cycle prematurely activated." "Immediate recovery essential." "Emergency, emergency." "The prisoners still inside?" "Open up." "Sorry, Captain." "Well done, Filer." "I must get on to UN headquarters." "You go with Jo and find the Doctor." "If anyone can explain, he can." "Now, hurry." "The Doctor's in the laboratory, isn't he?" "Yeah, that's where the alarm's coming from." "Doctor, what are you doing?" "A small experiment, that's all." "Jo, please, keep back." "That's Axonite, you know." "It's now taking the whole output of Reactor One and absorbing it." "Absorbing the whole lot and using it to grow." "What the hell's happening here." "Now get out of my equipment, you idiots." "You, stupid quack." "Don't touch that." "Yes, of course." "Axons." "That ship, Axonite, it's all the same thing." "Don't you see we're dealing with one single living creature." "Axonite was just the dormant state until I activated it." " Can't you stop it?" " No, it's too late." "Don't you see, Filer?" "This stuff could endanger the entire world." "Doctor, look out."
