"You've forgotten all about him." "By the time you've stopped congratulating yourself, he'll probably be dead." "Peri!" "Murderer!" "You destroyed my entire command." "Now I'm going to kill you." "We didn't do it." "The Doctor rescued you." "Please, put down the gun." "Please put it down." "No." "He deserves it." "He was going to kill me, Peri." "I guess he was." "Poor guy." "Peri!" "Oh, he didn't know what he was doing." "I mean, think what he must have suffered to act like that." "Quite beside the point." "For all you seem to care," "I could've been lying dead at your feet this very moment." "But you're not." "You're safe." "The point is, can you save him?" "Easily, but I'm not going to." "Well, you must." "You never cease to amaze me." "All you're asking me to do is revive a man who had very intention of murdering me." "We can't let him die." "If it's a question of his life or mine, I certainly can." "Lieutenant Hugo Lang, Interplanetary Pursuit, A Squadron." "Oh, a sort of policeman." "Which hardly makes him a homicidal maniac." "Here, disarm the gun." "I'll hide the power pack." "He can't do much harm then." "I wouldn't like to count on it." "Oh, all right." "Have it your own way." "Fetch the medical kit." "Well, we found the remains of two bodies." "The others must have been destroyed with their ships." "Hmm." "What about our own ship?" "No sign of damage?" "No." "All the same, you'd better go out and check it." "I don't want to be stuck here with a malfunctioning ship." "At once." "We can't use the transmat, the radiation level is too high." "It's only the side-effects of the energy beam that Mestor used to destroy the fighters." "It'll clear soon." "If we go out again, we risk radiation sickness." "Use the service ducts." "They'll provide protection for most of the way to the ship." "Is that the best speed you can manage?" "Is this the best speed we can manage?" "As it happens, yes." "Not good enough." "How do you expect anyone to work like this?" "Our arms are practically dropping off." "My fingers are so sore, I can hardly hold the pen." "Look, don't expect any sympathy from me." "You brought this on yourselves." "If you hadn't rigged that stupid distress beacon when we came here," "I would've let you use electronic equipment." "As it is, I can't trust you." "Now get on with your work." "No." "Pick them up." "No!" "I warn you!" "Warn away." "You can't force us to work." "I can if I have to." "Why don't you tell us what this is all about?" "If we knew, then we might cooperate." "Mmm-mmm." "It's too soon to tell you everything." "Have you heard of a planet called Jaconda?" "No." "What happens there?" "Its new master..." "Its new master is a creature of infinite ambition." "He requires the gifts of your genius to further that ambition." "I cannot say more." "But I can." "Professor Edgeworth is a merciful being." "He believes in the sanctity of life." "I do not." "Fail to obey him once more and I will have your minds removed from your bodies and use them as I wish." "Have you understood?" "I see that you have." "Pick up your pens." "Ah." "Post-operative shock occluded, wounds closed, no internal haemorrhage." "This deep-healing beam's a small marvel." "Great improvement on the old laser scalpel." "Did you hide the power pack to his gun well?" "In the wardrobe room." "Excellent." "Oh, the satisfaction, Peri, knowing one has saved the life of a brave, young man." "Or anyone come to that." "Mmm." "Is he going to be all right?" "Are you questioning my skill?" "No, not your skill, Doctor." "Oh." "In that case, the short answer is yes." "His heartbeat's slow, but steady as a drum." "An hour's rest, he'll be right as rain, whatever that means." "Yeah, an hour." "An hour to kill." "How to turn it to account?" "We must make plans, Peri." "My full powers are returning." "Plans?" "Do you think that wise?" "My perception's sharpening." "I can sense some massive danger threatening the universe." "I thought you were the danger to the universe." "Me?" "That's what you said." "That's why we came here." "So that you could meditate." "Words spoken in the sickness of transition." "Now, there is a sickness in the air." "I can feel the vibrations." "I cannot yet detect their source, but it is there." "I am never wrong." "The life force itself is in danger of extinction." "We must find this evil and destroy it." "How?" "Yes." "Yes, that is the problem." "It's odd, Peri." "The indications are very strong." "I think the clue we need is here on Titan 3." "That's it, of course, the children." "Children?" "He said something about children." "So he did." "An interplanetary spaceman on a mission, his spacecraft crashes, he talks about children." "Abducted children." "That's it, Peri." "Children of great importance kidnapped by aliens, brought here to Titan 3, held for a king's ransom." " That's absurd." "It's nothing of the kind." "Well, you said yourself there wasn't any life here." "There wasn't." "But we're here, he's here." "Things change, Peri." "You think so?" "Hmm." "Hmm." "What's that?" "What?" "That." "What?" "That!" "A bump." "A bump?" "A bump?" "A bump?" "That is something which has no business on an uninhabited asteroid." "Look at that symmetry." "That's no part of nature's handiwork." "Is...is it far?" "Quite a distance." "Let's get going." "Have you noticed the radiation level?" "What's a little radiation when we have a purpose, a mission in life?" "Silly me." "What's a little radiation sickness between friends?" "Brave heart, Tegan." "Tegan?" "I'm Peri." "Yes, of course." "Look, Doctor, even if you are right about the radiation level, even if there are abducted children, you're talking about aliens." "I mean, we can't even defend ourselves." "Don't worry, Peri." "I won't be putting your life at any risk." "Or mine either, for that matter." "This is just a simple reconnaissance." "But Lieutenant Lang?" "Who?" "Oh!" "Oh, the patient." "Don't worry, he'll still be here when we get back." "Come along, Peri." "Nothing ventured, nothing gained." "I'm about to transmit." "Do you know what you're doing?" "Yes." "If you transform all those equations into terms of power, we'll have enough energy there to generate a small sun." "I know, but this is passive power for transportation." "Now, you've done extremely well." "Go and rest." ""The shades of night were falling fast," ""As through an Alpine village passed" ""A youth, who bore 'mid snow and ice," ""A banner with a strange device," ""Excelsior!"" "Oh, Doctor, stop it!" "I was only trying to cheer you up." "One of your primitive American versemakers." "Longfellow, wasn't it?" "Who cares?" "You're making enough noise to raise the dead." "I'm so tired." "Courage, Peri!" "Just follow in my footsteps." "Right on course." "Hello." "Perhaps a way to enter the dome undetected." "Are you sure?" "Would you rather I went round and knocked on the front door?" "I'm a knight errant, not an errant fool." "Ha!" "It's something to do with these circles." "That's how he must have done it." "What?" "Taken our memories away." "Mmm." "I suppose so." "I'm scared, Romulus." "That awful creature." "I've never been so frightened in my life." "Same here." "But it's everything else as well." "This place, what they're forcing us to do, and whatever it is they aim to do with it when we've finished." "I feel..." "Well, I don't feel grown-up any more." "There's nothing we can do, Remus." "Just carry on." "We daren't stop now." "Transmission completed." "Any problems?" "None." "You have done well." "Thank you." "This is madness." "You've no idea where we're going." "To our destiny." "Well, can't we rest?" "Our destiny can wait a moment." "Peri, quickly." "Now, what did I tell you?" "Listen." "Machinery." "Well, let's get out of here." "The perpetual cry of all cowards." "We must investigate." "But do you think that wise?" "There could be enormous danger, even worse." "Worse?" "Yes." "Yes, well, perhaps you're right." "The purpose of reconnaissance after all is to gather information, not to finish up face down in a pool of one's own blood." "Especially blood as noble as mine." "We've found out what we want to know." "But there is one thing though." "What?" "The children Lieutenant Lang mentioned." "Yes." "Yes, of course." "But children are such survivors." "Besides we have only the words of a delirious man that there are any children." "If you didn't believe him, what are we doing here?" "An unthinking act of foolish bravado." "You know my current state of mind." "Don't you think we should just look?" "Just in case." "No, Peri." "Discretion is always the better part of valour." "We should return to the TARDIS and rethink the situation." "If that's what you want." "Doctor!" "Whatever is it now?" "Aliens?" "No, no!" "No, no, don't shoot." "It's not my fault." "I..." "I'm just a poor pilgrim." "It's all her fault." "Mercy!" "Mercy, mercy, don't shoot me." "Don't shoot me!" "The loss of five ships was sufficient." "They've called off the search." "You will return at once." "Very well." "I must revitalise." "Look, I'm sure we can sort this out amicably." "Move!" "Look, none of this is my fault." "I'm the innocent party, it's all her fault." "She's forever leading me off the straight and narrow." "Oh, thanks a lot, Doc." "Kindly refrain from addressing me as Doc, Perpugilliam." "Some of this technology looks familiar." "Why don't you just keep your big mouth shut?" "Hmm?" "Oh, my sincere apologies." "A momentary lapse." "I'm now in total control." "Leave everything to me." "Who are these?" "Survivors." "You said there were none." "I can't explain it." "But I can." "We are in no sense survivors." "We came to Titan 3 of our own free will." "Who in their right minds come to Titan 3 of their own free will?" "Pilgrims in search of peace." "They were spying." "Silence, wretch!" "I will not be silent." "Look at them, unmarked, unhurt." "They're not survivors from the wreck, they're spies!" "Put them to death." "Hold your tongue, Noma." "You say you're pilgrims?" "Yes." "And pilgrims need a place in which to meditate." "We were searching for a cave when we happened to stumble into your service duct." "And your companion?" "My disciple." "A pretty one." "A most devout young person." "Now, sir, whoever you are," "I demand a full explanation of this disgraceful treatment." "Now there's a face that floats upon my memory." "Impossible." "I'm hallucinating." "As I live and breathe, Azmael, you old dog!" "What in the name of wonder are you doing here?" "Peri, he's my old friend and mentor, the master of Jaconda." "I am nothing of the kind." "I never saw you in my life." "Oh, forgive me, old friend." "Of course, you don't recognise me." "I've regenerated twice since our last meeting." "Look." "The twin hearts that beat as one?" "I'm a Time Lord, just as you are." "And in case you still pretend not to know who I am, let me remind you." "The last time I stayed, that last night, when you drank like 20 giants and I had to push you in the fountain to sober you up." "I must concede, you have to be the Doctor." "Thank heaven." "For a minute, you almost had me worried there." "Hmm." "You don't seem overjoyed." "There's nothing to rejoice about." "I wish I could extend the hand of friendship." "Then why don't you?" "Well, the old times are gone forever." "Oh, Doctor, look!" "Earthlings." "Children." "By heaven, Peri, I was right." "My ship." "My ship." "Oh, no." "No." "What have they done with it?" "I see." "You abduct these children, deprive them of their memories, bring them to this screaming wilderness and won't disclose your motives?" "That hardly sounds in character." "You're wasting time." "Oh, what's time to us?" "You're in trouble, Azmael." "Grave trouble." "There is a point beyond trouble." "You can't help me now." "Don't be absurd." "You and I together?" "What an infallible combination!" "Let this at least be clear, Doctor." "I am no longer master of Jaconda, but I can still save my people." "I will do so, whatever the cost." "Even the price of friendship." "You were always full of good intentions, Doctor." "I cannot risk you interfering now." "What does that mean?" "You must stay here." "As prisoners?" "The lock on the main door has 10 million million combinations." "Now, will you please move over there?" "You, too." "Into the transmat area." "Don't try to follow us." "Once we've gone, the transmat will become random." "Try to use it and your remains will be spread across the surface of this miserable rock." "If it's of any comfort, Doctor," "I, too, remember that evening by the fountain." "Farewell." "Poor fellow." "He's not a bit like that really." "Don't care what he's like." "He's left us here forever." "No, Peri." "Few days at most." "Did you hear what he said?" "Ten million million combinations!" "That's what I mean." "It may take even me a few days." "Well, no time like the present." "Let's get started." "Doctor..." "Doctor!" "Doctor, quickly!" "It's vital you don't interrupt the sequence." "It's vital, you see, this." "I don't like the look of it one bit." "All right, all right, I'm coming." "Oh!" "Hmm?" "Oh, no!" "Can't..." "He wouldn't have..." "We haven't got a few days, not even a few hours." "In fact, we haven't got that many minutes." "Oh, it's a self-destruct mechanism, isn't it?" "That I can't switch off." "Are we gonna die?" "Not yet." "It means we've got to find another way out of here and very quickly indeed." "Now, how do I get out of here?" "Eureka!" "I can do it, Peri." "I can do it!" "Everything in order?" "Everything in order." "Standby for takeoff." "Standing by." "That should do the trick." "What trick?" "I'll be brief." "I must be very brief." "That is known as a revitalising modulator." "It breaks down your molecular structure and puts it back together again." "A most refreshing process." "Until now, that's the only purpose it served." "I have improvised." "It will take you back in time." "What?" "Ten seconds to be precise." "You'll find yourself in the TARDIS." "Are you sure?" "Absolutely." "In you get." "Oh, no." "Wait a minute." "Awkward." "I won't be able to see the computer clock when it's my turn." "And I need to be able to compensate for the time factor, so I arrive back at the TARDIS at the same time as you do." "Your watch, Peri." "Lend me your watch." "Come on, quickly." "Now when I stand clear, press the internal button." "Do hurry, Peri." "In precisely one minute I'm going to be blown to pieces." "It worked." "It actually worked." "Oh, no, it's stopped." "Doctor?" "Who are you?" "Doctor, where are you?" "Oh, no!" "Oh, no." "Oh, no, Doctor."
