"Sincro: wyxchari" "Doctor, there it is." "Jamie, I know, now shush." "It's safe?" "Yes, this is it." "But can they..." "That was close." "So easy." "What?" "I don't understand them." "What are you talking about?" "Destroying the wheel Jamie, that's what I am talking about." "From the outside it is strong enough but now that the Cybermen are inside I..." "Yes, I see what you mean..." "What do you think they are planning?" "Well, they obviously don't want to destroy the wheel." "What do they want then?" "I wish I knew." "The first thing that we must do is to protect the people here." "How?" "What's the thing we need to survive which the Cybermen don't?" "Food." "You're always thinking of your stomach aren't you?" "No." "Air, Jamie, air!" "Now I wonder how this works..." "It's the Doctor." "Hello, I think that it would be wise to lock all of the air-lock doors." "Can you do that?" "Yes." "Leo says that he can." "Why?" "The Cybermen are definitely on the Wheel." "Jamie and I have just seen one." "They may try interfering with the air supply." "Doctor..." "Keep this channel open." "Something moved over there - just out of the corner of my eye." "What's wrong?" "I don't know." "Shall I seal off the airlocks, Gem?" "Yes." "Sealing off all the airlocks." "I suppose that we can trust the Doctor?" "Not sure why I do but I do." "Sealing off the airlocks is good common sense anyway." "It's there." "Listen to me very carefully." "Do as I ask and don't delay." "One of the Cybermats is very close to us." "It will tune into our brain waves at any minute." "Doctor!" "It's turning!" "Hook up a variable audio-frequency on this channel right away." "Do it at once!" "Enrico, leave that." "There's a second one." "Come on." "No." "We don't stand a chance." "They've got a range of at least ten feet." "Hurry, please hurry." "Come on Enrico." "All right, all right!" "That's it." "Power!" "Come on!" "Come on!" "Come on!" "That's enough Enrico." "We're coming back as fast as we can." "This is what you have saved us from." "What that's thing?" "It's a Cybermat?" "Exactly." "Leo." "There is an energy reading coming from the power house." "It's not coming off our power source that's for sure." "Let's check it out." "All Cybermats have been destroyed." "Destroyed?" "By what method." "They have used high-current phase contrast." "One human has knowledge beyond our predictions." "Report." "The X-ray laser machine is repaired." "And operative?" "Yes." "In stage of operation." "Communication beam to Earth?" "Attacked and damaged." "Phase Six." "Yes." "The space station is to be taken over." "Complete Phase Six." "Workshop!" "Workshop would you come in please?" "Well, Bill Duggan knew the right spot OK." "What about radar?" "The radar's fine but the radio's kaput." "When is the next check to Earth Central?" "0300." "In two hours time." "Set up a check on the first wave of the meteorites." "I don't see the point." "We haven't got a laser to knock them out with." "Don't be pessimistic Enrico." "They may not have a direct course on us so anything can happen." "Everything is." "Blimey, you'd think that we are alone on the Wheel." "I can't raise anybody." "Have you told Gemma?" "She's got her hands full as it is." "Jarvis." "Jarvis, look at the creature." "Show it to him Zoe." "No." "No, it's not true." "Not true." "All right Zoe." "Put it away somewhere." "Complete withdrawal." "Loss of effect." "But not necessary complete." "Hmm, catatonic feature certainly." "I can try ECT." "He could be shocked back to normal." "Is the equipment here?" "No it is in the Medical bay." "Oh, I wouldn't advise moving him." "You've thrown a magnetic forcefield about this section." "Yes." "Enough to keep the Cybermen out?" "Enough to keep anything out." "The crew have been warned." "Oh..." "No, it's no good." "You are second-in-command." "You must take over." "Take over what?" "We're invaded." "We have no contact with Earth, we are in the path of meteorites." "Take over what?" "How do we fight without the laser?" "How is he?" "Hopeless." "Well, that's just fine." "He just closed himself away." "Who is the second in command?" "Dr. Corwyn." "At least she's all right." "Yes, but what she can do I don't know." "Oh, there's something that you don't know then?" "There's too much I don't know." "I was trained to believe that logic and calculation would provide me with all the answers." "Well I'm just beginning to realise there are questions which I can't answer." "You're just not trained for a emergency like this." "Well, that's the whole point!" "What good am I. I've been created for some false kind of existence where only known kinds of emergencies are catered for." "What good is that to me now?" "Hey, we are not done yet you know." "And if we survive?" "What then, Jamie?" "Suppose that we do get ourselves out of this mess - what have I got left?" "A blind reliance on facts and logic?" "Section Twelve, Section Twelve." "Will you please come in?" "Calling power house." "Power house will you please come in." "Oh, it's yourself." "Why don't you answer this thing." "Sounded like a bit violent." "It's not important." "Nah, it could be the old man himself you know." "Well, is this laser working yet, is it?" "Yes." "Finished." "Well are we not going to get rid of the meteorites then?" "No." "Well, that's great." "I've got a whole year's leave coming to me back on Earth." "Now come on." "Don't touch that." "You just can't ignore it." "What is it?" "What's the matter with you two hey?" "Do as you are told." "Hey, have you both gone mad or what?" "Don't point that thing at me laddie." "All right, if it is a fight that you are after, I'm your man." "Come on." "You need a few lessons in the noble and manly art, me bucko!" "All right, come on!" "The Earth machine has been installed?" "Yes." "A force field has been set around the Operations control room." "How is it operated?" "Only from within the Operations Room." "Dispose of the body of the human." "Come on some more." "Just a little more." "No, no more." "Don't force him." "Give him whatever he wants." "Well I am not surprised that you can't get in touch with the rest of the Wheel." "Aye, the Cybermen are not just going to sit around doing nothing." "But can they still control our people." "I thought that..." "The metal plates you mean." "Has everybody had them fitted to the back of their necks?" "No, not yet." "There are still some crew members without." "Well, it would be advisable to have it done." "Coming through now!" "Thought we'd lost it for a moment there." "Hey, will you listen to that!" "Now this is a big storm, bigger than we thought." "All right, all right, don't make it worse." "We'll have to rely on the anti-matter field projectors." "You don't think the meteorites are going to bounce off them, do you?" "We are talking about things that weigh two to three hundred tons here." "How far away are they?" "See for yourself." "Less than a million miles now." "Closing on an elliptical path tilted ten degrees." "Well, thank goodness for that." "Power room!" "Flannigan!" "Where have you been?" "Storing the laser discharge." "What was that?" "It has been completed." "The laser's repaired?" "!" "It is ready for testing now." "Great." "The laser's working." "Stand by to run a test." "Flannigan, where have you been?" "I've been trying to raise you for ages." "There must be a fault on the line." "Vallance is here with me." "We are ready when you are ready." "Right." "We are cutting it too fine, they're coming at us too fast." "Seven hundred thousand now." "Six-ninety, Six-eighty." "The speed of them is fantastic." "Take position from radar calibration estimates." "Angle ninety on zero-four, zero-two." "Distance now six-ten thousand, Six-dead, Five-ninety..." "What's the range of your machine?" "Fifty thousand total destruction, ninety thousand partial." "Well, it would be well not to miss isn't it." "We'll try a random shot, at least see how the power banks react." "Stand by to test laser." "Blue button." "Red on stand-by!" "Angle eighty on zero-four, zero-one now." "Distance closing - five hundred thousand dead." "Four-ninety, four-eighty." "Tanya, take a power reading on this." "And fire!" "Power maximum and normal." "Well everybody, I think that we stand a chance." "Angle eighty-eight on zero-four, zero-one and holding." "Distance closing three-fifty thousand, three-forty, three-thirty." "Angle change." "Eighty-seven on zero-four-zero point nine-nine recurring." "Distance two-eighty thousand." "Two-seventy, Two-sixty." "Stand by for further tests on lasers." "Power max one hundred." "Power packs green and steady." "Red on stand-by." "Fire." "Power maximum and normal." "All systems operating." "Stand-by for test blanket fire." "Red on stand-by." "Power max one thousand, all systems green and steady." "Red on stand-by." "Fire." "Power maximum and normal." "All systems are operative." "Well, let them all come." "We're ready for them." "I think that it is reasonable to assume that the Cybermen caused that star to go nova." "Deliberately causing the meteorites to deflect from their orbit." "To destroy the wheel." "No!" "Not to destroy the Wheel." "To make you want to use the laser." "Then they sent in their Cybermats to attack the laser and to destroy the Bernalium." "And then you search that drifting rocket and find a big crate." "With the Cybermen inside it." "Aye." "It is the only way they could get into the Wheel." "And now you think they repaired the laser." "They must have done, otherwise they would be smashing up the Wheel wouldn't they." "So you see this isn't just an attack by an alien race on a space station." "The Cybermen have another purpose." "What?" "They have an over-riding ambition to invade the Earth, plunder its mineral wealth." "Somehow they can see a way of doing it through this Wheel." "But how can we stop them?" "I don't know." "Presumably these Cybermen disposed of the crewmembers of the rocket in space." "Hmm... yes." "Jamie, the Time Vector Generator from the TARDIS." "Where is it?" "Oh you mean the gold rod thing?" "Yes, yes." "You got it." "I put it your pocket in the rocket." "Are you sure?" "Yes?" "But I haven't got it." "You must have." "Not unless it falling out when they were moving you." "Is it important?" "Important?" "Someone will have to go over to the rocket and get it." "Good luck to them." "Who's going?" "Well, if Gemma can spare someone to show you how to make the journey..." "ME?" "Yes, of course." "You're the only one who knows what it looks like besides me and I am much too busy." "Besides, it is your fault that it is lost." "Mine?" "Well isn't it?" "Well yes... no..." "Dr. Corwyn..." "Oh Doctor." "Och." "The meteorite shower is approaching the Wheel." "The weapons of the Earth humans have been tested and are operating." "Phase six can be completed." "The Earth humans have set up a neutron field barrier on the perimeter of the section containing their room of Operations." "Do not complete Phase Six." "Initiate Plan Three." "Follow me." "Replace the field barrier now!" "We're through." "I see that it's clear ahead." "I still don't see why you should send a wee thing like that with me." "She is the only one I can spare who knows enough about space-drill who can get you across to that rocket safely." "Maybe so." "I still think that I will be better by myself." "Do you?" "I wouldn't be too sure if I were you." "Have you gone off your head?" "!" "She..." "She agreed to go." "She had no right to agree." "And you've got no right to let her." "I had to." "Jamie will look after her." "Have you any idea of the dangers they'll face between the Wheel and the rocket?" "And you send Zoe and your friend out into an area which is bound to be bombarded by small debris, quite apart from the radiation and thermal shock." "Well, they knew the risk." "Zoe calculated it." "Oh yes." "Zoe calculated it!" "And what about Gemma, hey?" "What if Gemma meets up with one of those Cyberman things?" "Coming in to range now sir." "All right." "Now you don't do anything unless I say so." "Clear?" "Tanya, take a power reading on this." "Rico, calculate distance and direction." "All systems on stand-by." "He's dead?" "Yes, I'm afraid so." "Zoe, the emergency exit." "You'll find space equipment in the airlock." "Come on, Jamie." "All right." "You'd better take that." "Good luck!" "Thank you." "Yes?" "We're through." "No problems." "Good." "Main concentration coming into range." "Crossover on vector link." "Countdown is from now." "Well, this is the big stuff." "Angle ninety on channel-3." "Distance - one hundred thousand miles." "This controls the oxygen on the Space Station." "Yes." "Open it." "Each section of the Wheel has a separate air supply." "Yes." "Insert one capsule into each section." "The oxygen will turn into pure ozone." "The humans will die." "Fire!" "Fire!" "And fire!" "Look, it's hopeless." "There's too many of them." "Shut up, Rico." "Fire!" "Angle change." "Ten degrees." "Yes?" "Doctor, listen carefully." "They're going to poison the air supply." "Do you understand - poison the air supply?" "Tell Leo Ryan to switch over to the sectional supply unit." "Gemma, run!" "Get away from there!" "Run." "Gemma, can you hear me?" "!" "GEMMA!" "GEMMA!" "Deviation ten degrees." "FIRE!" "Zoe!" "Look!" "The meteorites!" "They've heading straight for us!"
