"(DOCTOR WHO THEME)" "(SHOTS FIRING)" "(BEEPING)" "(FIRING)" "(BEEPING CONTINUES)" "CYBER CONTROLLER:" "All resistance overcome." "CYBER LIEUTENANT:" "The beacon is ours." "You haven't killed them?" "CYBER LEADER:" "Of course not." "We have neutralised them." "They are necessary to our plan." "What are you doing, Kellman?" "This is the stranger I reported." "Calls himself the Doctor." "And because of him our plan was advanced?" "It had to be." "He was interfering." "I'd just like to know who and what he is." "I am Tyrum, Chief Councillor of Voga." "How do you do?" "I am Harry Sullivan and this is..." "Sarah Jane Smith." "What's your mission here?" "Mission?" "We don't have any mission." "We just sort of came here by accident, didn't we, Harry?" "Yes, that's right." "It's nothing to do with us really." "Explain." "Better start at the beginning." "Well, our plan was to find the Tardis..." "CYBER LEADER:" "Once our landing is detected, the Vogans will attack in force." "Well, they only have light armaments, nothing that can affect your Cybermen." "This is the main shaft?" "Yes, this is the shaft I explored for you." "It runs right to the core of Voga." "How far from the shaft entrance is the transmat receptor area?" "Just a matter of yards." "I set the receptors as close as possible." "Excellent, Kellman." "You have done well." "The humans will carry the explosives into the shaft." "What's your cut, Kellman?" "Voga's gold?" "CYBER LEADER:" "There will be no gold." "Voga is to be utterly destroyed." "And this time we shall not fail." "Oh, really?" "And you, Doctor, and your two friends will help us in this task." "That is why your lives have been spared." "I was wondering why you hadn't killed us." "We don't have to help them." "They can't force us." "Oh, you are mistaken." "You'll discover who's mistaken, chum." "The heart of Voga is almost pure gold." "Gold is hostile to our function." "Therefore, Kellman was asked to preserve three animal organisms for this purpose." "Isn't it wonderful to feel needed, Commander?" "Kellman, on our approach run, we detected an operational discharge from the transmat area." "Explain that." "Well, that was his doing." "He beamed his two friends down to Voga." "I tried to put the transmat out of action, but he managed to fix it somehow." "And how much do these humans know?" "(GUNSHOTS)" "Vorus, leader of the Guardians, I have a message." "Stay where you are!" "Well, Sheprah?" "Tyrum has given fresh orders." "My troops will hold their present positions and will not attack your Guild chambers." "Use some sense." "Your city scum would be badly beaten." "Unless we are provoked, Vorus, then we shall sweep you aside." "Look, I've done everything I can to help." "I set up the transmat, I directed the Cybermats." "You might never have found Voga if it hadn't been for me." "CYBER LEADER:" "That is true." "And you have been promised great rewards for your assistance." "That's why I must go down to Voga to make sure that nothing goes wrong with the transmat." "Very well, but return as soon as possible." "Once the detonator cycle commences it cannot be stopped." "(BEEPING)" "You know something, or he thinks you do, that would incriminate him." "Incriminate him in what?" "Some plot against the state," "against me." "But we only met Vorus for 10 minutes." "It's something to do with the beacon." "My suspicions about Vorus are hardening into certainty." "He's always had great ambition." "This city you are in was once the survival chamber for our people." "We've lived here ever since, unseen." "Safe from further attack from the Cybermen." "You know of the Cybermen?" "Well, yes, I've heard of them, but they're meant to have been wiped out ages ago." "I remember the Doctor saying that the thing that attacked Sarah was a Cybermat." "I wonder..." "Has Vorus, in the madness of his vanity, brought down the vengeance of the Cybermen upon us again?" "You will come with me." "Where to?" "Where are we going?" "Hmm?" "(STUTTERS) To the gold mines." "It's time that Vorus accounted for himself." "What great rewards have you promised Kellman?" "The matter is of no interest to you." "Everything is of interest to me." "And Cybermen possess nothing that a human might want." "You are incorrect." "Then what is it?" "You've no home planet, no influence, nothing." "You're just a pathetic bunch of tin soldiers skulking about the galaxy in an ancient spaceship." "You speak unwisely." "We are destined to be rulers of all the cosmos." "No, I don't think so somehow." "You tried that once and you were nearly wiped out." "Because of Voga and its gold." "If humans had not had the resources of Voga, the Cyber War would have ended in glorious triumph." "It was a glorious triumph for human ingenuity." "They discovered your weakness and invented the glitter gun." "And that was the end of Cybermen." "Except as gold-plated souvenirs that people use as hat stands." "Watch it, Doctor, I think you've riled him." "That is why Voga must be destroyed before we begin our second campaign." "Oh!" "There is to be a second campaign, is there?" "We have enough parts in our ship to build an entirely new Cyber army." "And this time, Doctor, it will be invincible." "Cybermen function more efficiently than animal organisms." "That is why we will rule the galaxy." "Loose thinking." "The trouble with Cybermen is that they've got hydraulic muscles, and of course hydraulic brains to go with them." "(GROANS)" "Put that down." "Thank you." "Now, if I'm correct about what this contains and should accidentally drop it..." "Now, I want some information from you, Cyber Leader." "What's Kellman expecting to get out of all of this?" "Kellman wants power." "He will be ruler of this solar system when we have conquered it." "Your puppet dictator?" "Strange." "I wouldn't have thought his ambitions were in that direction." "STEVENSON:" "Look out, Doctor!" "Do not kill them." "(GUN FIRES)" "Another human." "Take me to Vorus." "Vorus?" "Quickly, man!" "It's vital I see Vorus immediately." "Vorus is no longer in charge here." "KELLMAN:" "What?" "Take him away." "No, no, you don't understand." "I must see Vorus!" "You're in danger, all of you!" "CYBER LEADER:" "Cyberbombs, the most compact and powerful explosive devices ever invented." "Yes, and their use was banned by the Armageddon Convention." "Cybermen do not subscribe to any theory of morality in war, Doctor." "Our calculations indicate that two bombs placed in the central fissure of Voga" "will fragmentise the planet." "Fragmentise?" "Oh, well, I suppose we can't expect decent English from a machine." "Prime the buckles." "(BEEPING)" "CYBER LEADER:" "Two bombs should be sufficient, three will make certain." "Now what have they done?" "The buckles are now primed." "Any attempt to remove the harness before the countdown reaches the red zone will cause a secondary explosion." "Do you understand?" "You mean if we attempt to release the harness before then, we'll get blown up?" "Correct." "It is as well to keep that thought in your mind." "And when we reach the centre of Voga we'll be fragmentised, as you put it." "Incorrect." "You will have 14 minutes, the time period of the red zone, to reach your surface and save yourselves by the transmat beam." "That is not long enough." "Fourteen minutes is considered adequate." "Anything else before we go?" "Yes, Doctor." "Your progress will be followed by radar." "Any attempt to deviate from the planned course will be immediately detected." "And the bombs exploded by means of these manual controls." "Thank you." "Countdown has commenced." "You, Doctor, will lead first." "Careful, careful, I might explode." "(ELECTRONIC BUZZING)" "(GUNSHOTS FIRING)" "Someone's trying to attract your attention." "Come on!" "(SCREAMING)" "If only they knew about the use of gold." "You mean as a weapon?" "Yes." "It's the only thing that's effective against Cybermen." "Do you believe all this guff about giving us time to escape?" "Not a word of it." "Once we've reached the explosive zone we'd have outlived our usefulness." "So, what do we do now?" "Keep moving." "Give their radarscopes something to follow." "CYBER LIEUTENANT:" "Our warriors report all initial opposition has been crushed." "CYBER LEADER:" "Excellent." "They are now 100 metres below the surface." "Kellman has not returned." "He is of no importance now." "His part in our operation is at an end." "What's your connection with Vorus?" "We were working together." "We wanted to lure the Cybermen into a trap." "What trap?" "We're wasting time." "The Cybermen are planning to blow Voga apart." "What trap?" "The beacon, of course!" "Vorus has a rocket aimed at the beacon." "What?" "Harry, we've got to warn the Doctor!" "Councillor, the Cybermen are here." "What?" "They've landed on the first level." "We've suffered heavy casualties and need reinforcements." "How many Cybermen are there?" "Two at least." "Our weapons have no effect on them." "You'll never stop them that way." "Vorus' rocket is our only chance." "That beacon has to be blasted out of the sky." "No!" "Sheprah, we must attack the Cybermen with every weapon we have." "Very well." "The rest of you come with me, we must speak to Vorus." "Why don't we just wait here?" "I think my idea is better." "What is your idea?" "I don't know yet." "That's the trouble with ideas, they only come a bit at a time." "SARAH:" "Oh!" "TYRUM:" "Do you not recognise Tyrum, Chief Councillor of Voga?" "Stand aside." "We've got to see Vorus." "(FIRING)" "Stand aside, I said." "Sarah, can you try to use the transmat?" "And warn the Doctor." "I'll see if I can do something about this rocket." "Take care." "Right." "And you." "Vorus, call off your guards." "Enough." "You should know better, Tyrum, than to try to use force." "Our planet is being attacked, Vorus." "At this hour Vogans should fight together, not against each other." "Vorus, is the rocket ready to fire?" "The bomb head is being fitted now." "Too late, the Cybermen have already landed." "What?" "Have you betrayed..." "Well, I tried to warn you!" "Once they were on the beacon I couldn't delay them any further." "What's this rocket that you speak of, Vorus?" "Very well, I'll show you." "Where's the girl?" "She's gone to warn the Doctor, of course." "If people are going to start firing missiles at him, what do they expect?" "If that girl reaches the beacon and starts blabbing about the rocket, the Cybermen will explode their bombs." "(TRANSMAT BEEPING)" "(ELECTRONIC BUZZING)" "CYBER CONTROLLER:" "Average progression rate is 50 metres per minute." "CYBER LEADER:" "Excellent." "They will be in the central chamber of Voga in 17 minutes." "CYBER CONTROLLER:" "Distortion on our radarscope is increasing." "The three humans who are carrying our bombs can no longer be identified by separate signals." "CYBER LEADER:" "That is of no importance now." "Even the Doctor believes they will be given time to escape before our bombs explode." "They do not know the detonators will fire when the countdown enters the red zone." "Magrik and his team have been working on it for two years." "And now we've lost the race by minutes." "There might still be a chance if that rocket can be fired before the Cyberbombs are in position..." "Magrik reported a delay in fitting the bomb head." "No, we've lost our gamble, Kellman." "You're insane, Vorus." "You've brought about the destruction of our race." "I wanted to bring them freedom, Tyrum." "Freedom from fear, freedom to live as Vogans should, on the surface." "Not cowering like worms in the earth." "And this great plan was conceived in the company of such as he?" "A double agent, a despicable traitor, a murderer of his own kind?" "A man who's only loyalty is to himself and the gold he hopes to win." "The plan would have worked." "I just needed more time." "Look, all this incrimination is pretty pointless, isn't it?" "What we've got to do is get down into that central shaft and stop the bombs being planted." "The Cybermen hold the entrance." "There's no way past them." "I should think there's another way down, wouldn't you, Kellman?" "Only the central shaft runs that deep and the galleries don't connect with it." "Wait." "When it was widened a cross shaft was bored to provide ventilation." "I've seen it in our records." "Well, let's go take a look." "Steady." "I'm getting a bit old for this sort of thing." "Rest for a moment." "Had any more bits of that idea, Doctor?" "The deeper we go, the heavier the concentration of gold." "Before long it must start affecting their radar picture." "Then what?" "Well, it's an outside chance." "But if we can get back without being detected and take the Cybermen from behind..." "All right now, Commander?" "Yes, I think so." "Let's go." "It runs for about 50 metres and the rock's friable." "It will be very dangerous after all these years." "Well, in that case we'll send our expert on ahead." "On you go, Kellman." "(BEEPING)" "I'm sorry, Doctor, I'm a bit wet." "Sit down a moment." "Actually, I think we're very near the centre now." "This is pretty much solid gold." "I wonder if these buckles really would explode." "I shouldn't put it to the test." "They'll explode, all right." "It's blocked." "Let's see." "No, it's no use, we have to turn back." "They're giving a bit." "Look out!" "Get back!" "STEVENSON:" "Look out!" "(RUMBLING)" "Doctor." "Just a bump on the noggin, Doctor." "Nothing to worry about." "Now, let's get you out of this thing."
