"No, no." "I'll be right over." "And Sarah?" "Better keep his recovery dark for the moment." "Well, why?" "Do you think Harry's still in danger from something?" "Sarah!" "What's happened?" "Mister Benton, get to the Sickbay." "Right, sir." "No, I was only gone for a few minutes." "When I got back, he'd disappeared." "But the window was open." "And no Miss Smith?" "No." "Doctor Sullivan was beginning to talk." "I thought she ought to hear." "She was nowhere to be found in the corridor, so I went over to hut four." "Mister Benton?" "Doctor?" "Get some men over here and search the area." "Right." "He might be wandering on the moors." " Where's the telephone?" "I'll show you." "I found the receiver hanging on its cord." "I thought it odd at the time." "No one else on duty?" "Only me." "Where does this lead?" "Through there is the decompression unit for our divers, but it's always kept locked." "I'll try the Dispensary." "Shush." "It's only me, it's only me." "Oh, thank goodness." "I was talking to you, and this thing, it just suddenly appeared." "Doctor, look!" "What's that noise?" "I don't know, but that's not the air conditioning." "What in the name of?" "What, what is this place?" "Why have you brought me here?" "You could be of value." "What are you?" "I am Broton, War Lord of the Zygons." "Zygons?" "A name that humans will learn to fear." "Where have you come from?" "Centuries ago, by your timescale, our craft was damaged." "We landed here to await rescue." "Recently we learned our world was destroyed in a stellar explosion." "We can never return." "So now we must make this planet ours." "Observe." "In your terminology, human, the ultimate weapon." "Doctor, I can't breathe." "Shut up and save your breath." "How did you bring that creature to the Earth?" "As an embryo." "The Skarasen is our life source." "We Zygons depend upon it its lactic fluid for survival." "Mammals?" "If that's thing's destroyed, then you die too." "None of your puny human weapons can affect the Skarasen." "Our technology is supreme." "Our nuclear missiles..." "Would be mere pin pricks." "We have converted the Skarasen into an armoured cyborg of devastating power." "Nothing can stand against us." "Nothing!" "Keep looking into my eyes." "Keep looking into my eyes." "You don't need to breathe." "Do not breathe." "Do not breathe." "You feel no pain." "No pain." "You feel nothing." "You understand?" "Nothing." "You feel nothing." "Corporal?" "Sir?" "I'm still waiting for that liaison report." "You're still in touch with the Coastguards?" "Sir." "Right." "I want a twenty four hour watch kept on every inch of this coastline." "Sir." "If the Doctor's right, if there is some sort of sea monster out there attacking the rigs," " we've got to be ready for anything." "Sir." "It could decide to come inland." "Sir." "Can't you say anything else but sir?" "Sorry, sir." "Fletcher's squad have reached McNab Point." "They're setting up a listening watch now." "Good." "Any news of the Doctor yet?" "No, sir." "Hey." "What the devil?" "Here!" "They're in here!" "We've got to get this door open." "Find the others." "Tell them we've found them." "Doctor?" "Doctor?" "It worked, Mister Benton." "What worked?" "Why are you whispering?" "What worked, Doctor?" "Oh, just a trick I picked up from a Tibetan monk." "Don't touch her!" "It could be fatal to break the spell incorrectly." "What happened?" "Brigadier?" "What the...?" "Brigadier!" "Brigadier!" "I just don't get it." "Everyone in the village is affected." "They seem to have been drugged or something." "Gassed." "Gassed?" "Yes, some kind of nerve gas." "Affects the higher consciousness." "Will he be okay?" "Oh, yes." "But who?" "I mean, why would anyone want to knock out the entire village?" "It just doesn't make any sense." "Yes, it does." "Someone or something wanted to pass this way unseen." "You still on duty, Mister Benton?" "Yes, I am." "Then get outside and scout around." "Is it possible?" "Commander Broton, the Doctor and the female human have just driven into the village." "Explain!" "I don't understand, Commander." "They were dying when I left them." "Then you left too early." "It's all right." "You're going to be all right." "Doctor?" "Yes?" "I brought this over to show to the Brigadier." "What do you make of it?" "Interesting." "Where did you get it?" "It was found amongst the wreckage." "They have the trilanic activator!" "It must be recovered." "Take the human out and prepare him for use." "Where are you taking me?" "Mister Huckle, this is a signal device." "For this thing you reckon's chewing up the oil rigs?" "Correct." "You are too clever, Doctor." "Clever and dangerous." "Where are you taking me?" "We need your body print." "My what?" "Selected humans provide us with body prints, a Zygon device that is beyond your understanding." "Are they dead?" "No." "See this one?" "A worthless creature known as the Caber." "Now watch." "That's impossible." "We have the power to turn ourselves into replicas of your unpleasant form whenever it is necessary." "If one of these was clamped to each of the rigs about to be attacked." "Ah!" "Perhaps it emits some kind of primeval mating call." "Hee." "Just after I got here I heard some kind of animal bellowing out there." "What kind of animal?" "I didn't see it, Miss Smith, and I can tell you, I didn't go looking." "If my theory is correct, we're going to have to handle this very, very carefully." "Yeah, well, if there's anything I can do?" "No, thank you, Mister Huckle." "This could be very valuable." "You've done enough, thank you." "Okay." "Well, watch yourself, Doctor, hey?" "You too, Miss Smith." "Don't worry." "You guys all right?" "Yeah, better." "Hey, he's coming round." "Ah, Doctor, there you are." "What was I doing on the floor?" "You've been asleep, Brigadier." "Asleep?" "Impossible." "I was on duty." "There are times, Doctor, when you do talk absolute nonsense." "Excuse me." "I've never seen anything like that before." "Go and fetch the Doctor and the Brigadier." "Right, you take us there." "Sarah." "Yeah?" "You stay here in case Harry turns up." "Right." "Excellent." "Now the female human is alone." "Something very big, and very heavy." "And very savage." "Harry!" "Hello." "What do you mean, hello?" "Are you all right?" "What happened to you?" "Nothing." "I escaped." "Escaped?" "Escaped from where?" "What do you...?" "Where are you going with that?" "The Doctor asked me to collect it." "Did he?" "When did you see him?" "It's not important." "Hey, just a minute." "Harry!" "Harry!" "Come back!" "Harry!" "Quick!" "It's Harry." "We've got to stop him." "Quick." "Harry!" "Harry?" "Harry!" "Look, we've got to find him." "Let's split up." "Harry?" "Harry..." "Strange." "The response monitor on the human indicates autonomic reflex." "Impossible..." "Unless something has happened to Murdlar." "Test the syncron response." "There is no syncron response, Commander." "Murdlar has been eliminated!" "Immediate molecular dispersal!" "He must not be taken." "Immediate dispersal!" "But it was there!" "Yes, but how does it work?" "If we knew that, at least we'd be able to destroy it." "Still, thanks to you we've still got it." "Yeah." "You know what worries me is how they, whoever they are, whatever they are, knew we had it." "Meaning?" "Meaning I think we're being watched." "Yes." "You know, Brigadier, it does seem as if they know our moves in advance." "A spy?" "You're not suggesting that one of us is really one of them?" "Why not?" "It's possible." "We now know they have the power to turn themselves into facsimile human beings." "Like Harry." "Yes." "I think it's more likely they've got some form of electronic surveillance." "A bug?" "Shush." "A bug." "Mister Benton!" "Sir!" "I want every part of this building checked for bugs." "Understand?" "Right, sir." "UNIT and the Doctor must be destroyed." "Totally destroyed." "Programme the Skarasen to attack." "Is that wise, Commander?" "If we reveal our presence on this planet..." "I will not tolerate argument!" "Doctor?" "It moved!" "I saw it move!" "Of course." "Part artefact, part organic!" "She's right, Brigadier." "Is that its signal?" "Yes." "And that means this thing, whatever it is, is on its way?" "Yes." "I see." "Well, I'd better get our machine gun set up." "Machine guns may not be enough, Brigadier." "Then what do you suggest?" "There's only one course still open to us." "I'll try and draw it off while you get a fix on its activating signal." "We must find its base, Brigadier." "Right, Doctor." "Corporal, get that..." "You're taking an awful risk, Doctor." "You don't know how fast this thing can move." "It doesn't know how fast I can move." "Fiendish thing!" "The signal's coming from inland, sir." "Bearing two three zero." "Two three zero." "And the other bearing was?" "One six five, sir." "One six five." "That makes it just about here." "About six or seven miles from here." "Loch Ness." "The monster?" "Destroy him." "Die, Doctor, die!"
