"What's happening?" "I don't know." "Oh, no." "What?" "It wasn't the pilot's decision, the computer's just started an automatic sequence of jettison the unstable fuel." "If we don't do something quickly, the whole universe will be destroyed." "We must stop the sequence." "Do you know how?" "Not yet." "What then?" "Where are the others?" "What?" "Spies." "Oh, no, Nyssa." "Are you all right?" "I think so." "What happened?" "I don't know." "Look." "We must make it materialised fully." "It won't move." "Let me help." "It's not going to defeat us now." "I wouldn't." "The radiation will kill you." "Get much closer and you're dead." "Unless you can get to a decontamination unit." "You're lying." "Please yourself then." "But in my day, we were better trained." "What?" "You're not from the Company." "You're combat trained." "Colonel Pereira, was it, the one they call the Chief?" "How do you know?" "Recognise the moves." "Taught the same ones to me." "I was with him for five tours." "Till he turned me in for the reward." "And how did you get here?" "Slave labour." "That's how Terminus works, you couldn't pay anyone enough to work here." "Where are the guards?" "Don't need them." "If we don't work, we don't get the Hydromel we need to stay alive." "Help me, please." "Oh, come on." "Look at me, I'm a danger to no one." "I'm finished, I'm dying." "Where did that thing take Nyssa?" "Nyssa?" "Oh, is that her name?" "I've no idea, this is my first time in the Zone." "Will he harm her?" "No." "He's curing her." "That's what he's here for." "How can that thing cure anyone?" "Help me, I'll show you." "I'll find her myself." "Don't leave me!" "Why won't it move?" "It's controlled by the computer." "And the computer's uncontrollable." "I don't think I've got any skin left on my hands." "Primary ignition is now beginning." "All systems running on test." "Departure sequence is beginning now." "What's happening?" "The liner's preparing to move." "No, wait." "You can't leave yet!" "All drones to designated assembly points." "Countdown to secondary ignition follows." "No!" "The ship's on automatic, Tegan, there's nothing you can do." "I've got to try." "Departure sequence is now under way." "Countdown to docking disengagement now beginning." "Preparing to blow clamps and withdraw all lines." "Can anyone hear me?" "Countdown to primary burn is now under way." "You must stop." "Countdown to primary burn is now under way." "Test mode on all systems is now disengaged." "All systems operating within permitted tolerances." "Shut up!" "Emergency." "Emergency." "Launch abort." "Launch abort." "I don't believe it." "Launch abort." "Launch abort." "Launch abort." "How can this ship still be operational after all this time?" "The technology here is phenomenal, unfortunately." "There must be a way to reset that handle." "He must have had the strength of a giant." "A giant." "Of course." "The Garm." "But will there still be enough time?" "Well, we can only hope there is." "The Doctor still lives." "He's trapped." "He's powerless, probably dead already." "You represent a poor investment of my time and energy." "And for such an investment, there is only one course to follow." "I'm unarmed." "Can you understand me?" "Perfectly." "Why are you doing this?" "You're torturing people." "I draw the disease from them." "All would die but most survive." "And the last one you treated, Nyssa, did she survive?" "She is recovering." "Where?" "Follow me." "If only I could remember." "Try to relax." "It doesn't matter." "In a couple of hours, there won't even be a Terminus or a Company or anything." "I found some information in a computer." "What's going to happen?" "That's the trouble." "I can't remember." "But, Bor, you must." "Short-term memory is always the first to go." "Look, I'll get some Hydromel." "There's a case of it through there." "Oh, Eirak won't release any." "Who said I was going to ask him." "It really isn't worth the trouble, you know." "You ready?" "Call him." "Turlough?" "Turlough?" "He's coming." "What do we do now?" "Let's get into the control room, I'll do the rest." "And if he won't cooperate?" "We'll humour him." "Right." "Let's go." "It's not working." "Deception is unnecessary." "You have given the signal." "I must obey." "Ovlir." "Nyssa." "You came through the cure." "Just about." "What happened?" "I was simply exposed to a massive dose of radiation." "There's no proper diagnosis, no control." "And this is supposed to be someone's idea of decontamination." "Well, let's go." "The sooner you can put Terminus behind us." "You don't understand." "There must be thousands of people who've passed through here and think they're cured." "It's all just hit and miss." "No one cares." "Let's go, Nyssa." "Listen to me." "The cure works but it needs to be controlled." "Otherwise you just trade one killer for another, radiation-induced diseases that may take years to show." "Let's just concentrate on getting away, shall we?" "It could all be changed." "I've no doubt you're right." "But we can argue your case later." "Now, come on, quickly." "Who took it?" "Who took the signal box?" "Someone will suffer for this." "You understand what we need you to do?" "I'd appreciate it if you'd hurry." "Is this necessary?" "If you can return the lever, I can disconnect the computer controlling it." "And if I fail?" "It's the end of the universe." "Beginning of the end, boys." "Nothing's happening." "It must." "You must push harder." "It's the only way." "Please." "It's working." "That's it." "Have I served you well?" "Indeed you have." "Do something for me." "Destroy the box." "Set me free." "Rest." "You've earned it." "Come on." "What now?" "Disconnect the control lines to the engines." "Look, whoever you are, we haven't got time..." "Silence." "Move." "You're taking a narrow view of all this." "It's the Doctor." "I want to stay alive." "If that's a narrow view, then you're right." "You're quite happy to see things go on as they are." "Happy?" "This is Terminus, no one's happy here." "Staying alive is all that counts." "But things could change." "Over here." "Here!" "Freeze!" "Nyssa, I've been so worried." "I'm fine." "Doctor, I've made a fantastic discovery." "The cure for Lazar disease works." "How do you know?" "Because I've been cured myself." "Seems I was wrong." "The system is far from safe." "What, you think it could be?" "With the Garm's help, yes." "It's only his lack of free will, which has prevented him from doing anything about it." "Well, he has it now." "She's sick." "She doesn't know what she's talking about." "With changes, Terminus could work, become a proper hospital." "The Company isn't interested." "Are you, though?" "And the other Vanir?" "Even if we were, it's not possible without Hydromel." "And it's the Company who control that." "But if you had an endless supply of it, you'd be free of their control, wouldn't you?" "Am I dead yet?" "No." "Oh, funny, I could have sworn that..." "But still, it's a relief." "I'm hoping for something rather better on the other side." "Sigurd..." "Try to sleep." "Oh, sleep." "It's all I can do to keep awake for more than a minute." "Valgard." "I've got some people with me." "What's going on?" "Come in." "Where is it?" "Here." "Now, wait a minute." "They say they can free us from the Company." "You believed that?" "You know anybody harder to convince?" "It's locked." "Olvir, may I borrow your laser?" "Now this is just some madcap scheme for getting back at Eirak," "then you got another thing coming." "Wait." "You're the expert, what do you think?" "Look, while we're sorting things out here, perhaps you'll be so good as to cut the control lines to the engines." "I'd hate anyone to start the sequence manually." "Of course, come on." "It's crude stuff, probably organic." "Think you can synthesise it?" "I might even improve on it." "Well, how is this supposed to free us from the Company?" "Terminus Incorporated only control you because they supply you with Hydromel." "But if you produced you own..." "Here on Terminus." "Is it possible?" "Of course." "But the Company would send troops, they'd destroy us." "With the current reputation Lazar disease has, would any sane soldier come here?" "Of course they wouldn't." "I suppose not." "Then help." "All right." "Why not?" "Oh, Sigurd." "I'm with you." "Are you sure these are the right cables?" "According to the Doctor." "It's what he said about the ship." "Hate to end the universe by mistake." "Give me the gun." "No, no, I'll do it." "Just wanted to be certain." "I want it found." "Without the signal box, we've got no control over the Garm." "Pleased to see me?" "I want you to meet some people." "How do you do?" "I'm the Doctor." "And this is Nyssa." "All right, Valgard, what do you think you're doing?" "I think you owe me something." "Small matter of your position here." "If I bring back the intruders, your position is mine." "Remember?" "There he is." "We all think it's time for a little chat." "Yes, well, before you start, perhaps one of you could show us the way to the damaged engine." "There's still a great deal to be done." "Terminus will never move again." "Have you given any thought as to how we're gonna get home?" "I'm about to." "It'll be good to see the TARDIS again." "And Tegan." "Yes, well." "It'll be nice to know she's safe." "Tegan!" "Doctor." "What are you doing?" "I was trying to reach you." "Turlough went back to TARDIS on his own." "I told you not to follow me." "Doctor, say you're pleased to see her." "Yes, well I'm pleased to see her but she shouldn't have followed us." "You don't understand." "Yes, well, we'll talk about it later." "Valgard?" "Why does he never listen?" "He has a great deal to do." "There always is." "Tegan, I have to tell you something." "Now it's important you inform the authorities about what's been going on here, make it impossible for Terminus Incorporated to retaliate." "For example, you must make contact with the pickup ship." "What ship?" "Oh, the one that takes the cured Lazars away." "Well, the Garm will know all about it." "We no longer have any control over him." "Then speak to him, win his confidence." "You'll find him very agreeable." "Doctor." "Doctor, talk to Nyssa." "What is it?" "I'm not coming with you." "What?" "There's too much to be done here." "Tell her she must." "Well, you can't stay, it isn't safe." "Certainly not until the Vanir have sorted out how they're to run Terminus." "And with my skills I can help them." "We need you, too." "I've enjoyed every moment of my time on the TARDIS and I'll miss you both." "But here I have a chance to put into practice the skills I learnt on Traken." "Please, Nyssa." "I'm adamant." "Please, let us part in good faith." "You do fully understand the commitment you'll be undertaking?" "Yes." "And that life here would be very hard." "I'm fully aware of that but I want to stay." "Then you're a very brave person, I wish you every luck." "She'll die here." "Not easily, Tegan." "Like you, I'm indestructible." "Turlough?" "Can you hear me?" "What?" "The Doctor is returning." "I feel ill." "This is your last chance, boy." "What did you do to me?" "You will recover." "I can't go on." "Kill the Doctor yourself." "Blame me for it, I don't care." "I can't do it." "You have little choice." "Turlough?" "Turlough?" "He's coming, boy." "This is your last chance." "I shall not say that again." "Kill the Doctor."
