"Sincro: wyxchari" "Stop!" "Oh dear, this is getting monotonous." "Your execution hasn't been cancelled just postponed." "Bring him along." "Sabor, how long do you think we've got?" "Who knows?" "A week, a... a day, an hour." "Doctor!" "You're alive!" "I knew you'd come!" "Oh..." "Doctor!" "Be silent!" "You are in no position to protest!" "Your conspiracy has been discovered." "You and your confederate will die!" "I d..." "I don't understand." "They know that we did not bring the crystal to Metebelis." "I'm sorry, Lupton." "But... how did you find out?" "In the same way that we first traced it by its vibrations through space and time." "The crystal is still on Earth." "Do not attempt to deny it!" "Why should I deny it?" "I know where the crystal is hidden." "I told you, but I didn't say it was hidden on Metebelis." "The situation is unchanged." "If you wish to invade Earth, you need my help." "Be careful, two-leg." "You may go too far." "But it's true." "Once more, oh Queen, your arrogance has endangered the master plan of the Great One." "All praise to the Great One!" "It is not the first mistake the Queen has made." "Mistake?" "!" "Maybe the most noble Queen is growing old?" "I think the time has come for a coronation." "Wait!" "Wait, my sisters, do not be so hasty." "I merely wanted to be sure." "Then what of the attack on Earth?" "I shall visit the cave of the crystal and ask the approval of the Great One." "Do you hear me?" "I shall this very day speak with the Great One herself." "All praise to the Great One..." "All praise to the Great One..." "Now I know what a fly feels like." "What an absolutely fascinating experience!" "Ha ha!" "Great..." "Yeah... judging by the habits of our captor's Earth cousins," "I would say we're probably in the larder." "Right first time." "I think they'll find I'm rather a tough old bird." "An old boiler, in fact." "Yes!" "Yes, make a good item on the next agenda of the spider council meeting." "Yeah - whether to stew a Time Lord or roast him in a slow oven." "That'll give them something to chew over." "Yes, something they can really get their teeth into, what?" "Hey, Doctor, you know I'm still not clear what's going on." "I mean, if the spiders wanted that crystal so badly, well why didn't they just take it before you did?" "Well they didn't arrive until much later." "We're in the future remember, Sarah." "Oh, of course." "Ha!" "Now listen to me - both of you, listen." "Arak is, er, trying to get together some of the men from the other villages." "They're gonna try a rescue." "But he mustn't!" "If they do, they're walking into certain death!" "Oh no." "No, they know how to protect themselves now." "Well how?" "Well, you see wha..." "The girl." "No!" "Where are you taking her?" "Never you mind." "You'll find out soon enough." "On your feet, girl!" "Ooh!" "Ah!" "What's the matter with you?" "I've... pins and needles." "Oh, enough!" "Come on - bring her." "Sarah, try and stall them as long as you can." "You bet, Doctor!" "I'll do my best to give them all indigestion!" "I must come with you." "No, Rega." "This is man's work." "Why do we wait?" "We're ready." "Very well then." "Wait, Arak, wait." "My husband has been taken from me." "Must I lose my sons as well?" "I've carried you to the fields at my breast, I've dried your eyes, I've laughed with you through the short years of your boyhood - now you're a man." "Must you leave me alone... to mourn?" "But mother..." "We must go, mother." "We're not only fighting for Sabor and the two strangers, we're fighting for ourselves - for the freedom of our people." "Rega?" "You have nothing to fear." "The Doctor has given us protection." "Put on the headbands I gave you." "Are we ready then?" "Yes!" "We're ready!" "Death to the eight-legs!" "Death to the eight-legs!" "Death!" "Death!" "You're wasting your time." "It's impossible to get out of these things." "Look, much as I admire your stoic acceptance of the inevitable, I would appreciate it if you'd shut up for a moment." "What I'm trying to do requires the utmost concentration." "What are you trying to do?" "Compress the muscles." "It's an old..." "A little trick I learned from an old friend of mine, er, Harry, er, what was his name?" "Erm, er, Hopkins!" "No, no, that's not right... er, er, Hetherington!" "No, that's not right either." "Er... er, it wasn't an English name, erm, er, Hackenschmidt." "No, I know it began with an "H"." "Houdini!" "Yes, that was it" " Harry Houdini." "Oh, don't worry, old chap." "As soon as I've rescued Sarah, I'll find a knife and come back for you." "Leave us." "Leave us, I say!" "Rise, child." "You have no reason to fear me." "I am your friend." "Oh, you've a funny way of treating your friends then!" "You are impertinent!" "I am going to help you." "Why should you want to help me?" "I do not agree with the plans of the council." "The invasion of your planet is a foolhardy venture." "It could destroy us!" "I have lied to the council." "I have said I will visit the Great One, but..." "The Great One?" "Never mind." "I lied to the council but I had to lie." "I desire only peace with you and all two-legs." "Th... then why have you treated them as slaves?" "It... it was necessary..." "Stop fighting me, child!" "I intend to help you and your Doctor friend to escape - back to Earth." "Well, that's more..." "like it." "But why?" "Do you know of the blue crystal?" "Yes - your pal Lupton's got it." "He has not." "He left it on Earth!" "So that's it." "You want me and the Doctor to get it back for you." "If you do not, I see only disaster ahead for all of us." "And what about Sabor - the old man?" "I shall release him." "And the other the other two-legs on Metebelis?" "I shall listen to their grievance." "And do something about it, like setting them free?" "Very well." "Okay, it's a deal." "Now what do I have to do?" "Well?" "What are you gonna do?" "Do?" "About Lupton?" "I told you" " I overheard you talking." "There's nothing we can do." "Just got to wait for him and keep you here until he comes back." "But as you said yourselves, he may not be able to." "I know." "As I said, there's nothing we can do." "Of course there is - re-establish the link, the contact." "You mean with the mandala, the ceremony?" "He's probably waiting for you to do just that." "There's only four of us." "You have to have five." "I'll help." "You?" "Why should you help?" "Because of Sarah Jane Smith of course." "I want her back just as much as you want Lupton." "Yes... yes, of course." "But how do I know it's not just some sort of trick?" "Oh, for pete's sake!" "Of course it isn't!" "Come on, untie me." "My plan is this: we shall return to Earth and fetch the crystal from its hiding place, then the way will be open for the invasion of Earth." "And what if the Queen returns from the Great One?" "All praise to the Great One!" "I say what if she returns with a different plan?" "The Queen is not to be trusted." "Neither are you - nor the two-leg, Lupton." "No two-leg can be trusted." "Now, wait a minute!" "Silence!" "My loyalty is to the eight-legs." "My loyalty is to this council." "You will listen and obey." "But it was agreed..." "You have not been made a slave." "Let that be your reward." "You... will put my plan into action!" "I am the one you will obey!" "I have the power..." "You will obey." "You will obey." "You will obey, you will obey, you will obey, you will obey, you will obey..." "I shall obey..." "Very well." "If you cooperate, you will be rewarded." "Now, what shall be our action?" "We should invade." "This was the plan." "It must be carried out." "Doctor!" "Doctor, come quickly!" ""Intelligence... as a concept." "The simplistic notion that the intelligence qu... qu... qu... quotient"" ""Quotient - result given by dividing one quantity by another. "" "It's no use" " I don't understand the words." "I'll have to ask someone wha... what's happened to me." "Yates." "He's my friend, I think." "I'll ask Mr. Yates." "Moss may be in the garden - if he hasn't run away altogether, of course." "But we'll meet in the cellar?" "Yes, I suppose so." "The sooner we get on with it, the better." "I haven't had a moment's peace since Lupton disappeared." "Ten minutes." "If I can find them - of course." "I haven't had a moment's peace since Lupton disappeared." "But we'll meet in the cellar?" "We'll meet in the cellar... in the cellar... in the cellar... in the cellar... in the cellar... in the cellar..." "Cellar?" "Lupton has gone down to the cellar..." "Lupton has gone down to the cellar..." "Lupton has gone down to the cellar..." "Lupton has gone down..." "Lupton..." "Lupton..." "Lupton..." "Lupton..." "Lupton..." "Lupton..." "Lupton..." "Lupton..." "Lupton!" "Clever Lupton!" "Clever Lupton..." "Cho-Je" " I'll ask Cho-Je!" "Quickly, Doctor!" "Quickly!" "Stop!" "If you come any further, Doctor, you will die!" "Oh, not at once, but gradually every cell in your body will be irretrievably damaged by the crystal rays, and I need you alive!" "I heard the voice of my assistant?" "Have no fear - she is quite safe." "But she called out to me for help." "Like this?" "Doctor!" "Help me!" "Come quickly!" "No!" "It is an illusion!" "Listen...!" "Half a pound of tuppenny rice, half a pound of treacle, that's the way the money goes... "" ""... goes the weasel!"" "Who... who are you?" "They call me... the Great One!" "Why can't I see you?" "You will, Doctor, you will, all in good time - but not until you bring me the crystal you stole from Metebelis." "But why do you want that particular crystal?" "It's no different from all the others." "Oh, but it is!" "You took the one last perfect crystal of power." "I searched all time and all space for it." "I must have it!" "No - no, never!" "You are proud, little man!" "I see that I shall have to teach you to have respect." "Round you go, Doctor..." "No... no!" "No, I will not!" "No!" "No, I will not!" "No!" "Is that fear I can feel in your mind?" "You are not accustomed to feeling frightened, are you, Doctor?" "You are very wise to be afraid of me!" "Go now - you must hurry back and fetch the crystal!" "I must have it, don't you understand?" "!" "I must have it!" "I must!" "I must!" "I must!" "Go now - go!" "Contact established." "The path is open." "The scout soldiers are ready." "Wait!" "Where is this... contact?" "The place you opened!" "The monastery?" "Then the group must be operating, but be careful - they might be hostile now." "Then the approach must be secret." "It's not working!" "Keep trying!" "So I thought I'd better come and tell you all about it." "I'm glad you did." "Dear me, these foolish fellows." "But don't you think we should tell K'anpo?" "Indeed we should tell the Abbot when we know... what to tell him." "Tommy, you go and get this... crystal, and I will go down to the cellar and see what these naughty chaps are about." "Now off you go now." "Yes, Cho-Je." "Cho-Je?" "Yes?" "Y... you don't seem very surprised to find me changed?" "When everything is new, can anything be a surprise?" "I see." "Hurry now." "You must stop!" "You are the most misguided of men." "Did I not warn you?" "Did I not tell you of the risks you ran?" "No!" "K'anpo..." "I must tell K'anpo." "Doctor!" "Where on earth have you been?" "Sarah, so you're safe then?" "Yes, of course I am." "Now listen, Doctor - we're going to escape." "Hold my hands." "Look, there's no time for foolish..." "Listen!" "Sabor!" "Father!" "Where are you?" "It's my son!" "Here, Arak!" "Quickly, Doctor, or it'll be too late!" "Father!" "Tuar!" "Behind you!" ""goes the weasel!"" "What?" "How did you manage that?" "The Queen taught me." "Nothing to it really." "Stay girl!" "Tell us - what has been happening?" "Oh, don't worry, Neska." "Sabor is safe" " Arak and Tuar are rescuing him at this very moment." "Goodbye and thank you for everything!" "Can it be true?" "Come on, Doctor!" "The key!" "I've lost the key!" "I've got it." "Sarah..." "Wait!" "Quickly, hide!" "Doctor, look!" "Are they dead?" "No." "An unfortunate oversight, Doctor." "It won't occur again." "Quickly, Doctor!" "This way!" "But... but what about Mike and Cho-Je?" "Oh, they'll be out for quite a time." "But as long as they're unconscious, they're quite safe." "What happened to the others?" "Oh, they've been taken over." "By the spiders?" "Yes." "We'd better get out of here." "But, Tommy, you're normal!" "Y... you're just like everybody else!" "I sincerely hope not." "This way." "Where are you taking us?" "To the Abbot." "Doctor!" "Doctor, the crystal!" "Yes, yes, Sarah - all in good time." "Come in." "This is the Doctor, K'anpo." "I know." "You are welcome." "My friend, Sarah Jane Smith." "It is kind of you to come and visit an old man." "You speak Tibetan?" "A little, sir, yes." "What did you just say?" "I apologised to the Rinpoche for not bringing him a cotton scarf." "You friend knows not only our language, but also our customs." "The ceremonial gift merely symbolises friendship." "We have no need for symbols - you and I." "I..." "I think I'd better keep a watch outside." "If... if the others get out of the cellar...?" "As yet they haven't managed it." "They may soon though." "Thank you, Tommy." "Pray be seated." "Thank you, sir." "Now, Doctor, you have a story to tell me." "Yes, well, I have a strange feeling that you already know most of it." "Erm, you see, I..." "I found a crystal, a blue crystal..." "Found?" "Well, perhaps, "stole" might be a better word." "Forgive me, have we met before?" "The recognition of friends is not always easy." "Tell me about this crystal you... "stole"." "Yes, well it didn't occur to me that I had stolen it - at the time." "You see..." "The crystal is in that room!" "Get out of the way." "You can't go in there." "What are we going to do?" "We..." "Be quiet!" "Stand back you!" "Keaver, Land - get him out of the way!" "Come on now, Tommy." "Now!" "No, no!" "I'm sorry, Mr. Barnes." "Kill him!"
