"Subtitles:" "Doctor Who Transcript Project" "Doctor Who Season 7 Doctor Who and the Silurians 7 of 7" "Original Air Date: 1970/03/14" "And there's no news from cave mouth two?" "We've lost contact with cave mouth two, sir." "I want reports from all sectors as they come in..." " ...and get me Captain Hawkins." " Sir!" "I've checked on the ambulance man in the sick bay." "The discolouration of the skin is fading rapidly." "So, the Doctor's antidote seems totally effective?" "So far, yes." "I wish he'd get a move on with that formula." "Sergeant!" "Quickly, there may be others." "Hold them long as you can." "I'm doing my level best to get you the support you need." " Over and out." " Yes, Dr. Crawford." " Crewcock, bring that down here." " I know." "Look, I'm terribly sorry." "Look, what's happening about my call to the Ministry of Defence?" "I'm sure the Doctor won't be much longer." "Look, hurry it up, man." "This is top priority." "Yeah, I do realise." "All right, goodbye." " Trouble?" " Dr. Meredith is getting very impatient." "I can't say I blame him." "Give the Doctor a couple more moments." "I mean, he may have run into some kind of problem." "Hey, you!" "Give me a hand." "Well, don't stand there gawping, man." "Come on, give me a hand." "Yes, all right, Major Walton." "Pull back from gallery four and try to hold them..." " ...at cave mouth three." " UNIT control." " Over and out." " Yes, sir." "He's here." "Hold the line." " The Minister of Defence." " Miss Shaw, I must have that formula." "All right, I'll go and see what's holding the Doctor up." "Lethbridge Stewart here, sir." "You got my message?" "With respect, sir, I don't think you appreciate the gravity of the situation." "But there's no time to refer it to the Defence Committee." "Doctor, the..." " But where is he?" " I've told you, I've no idea." "Well, read the formula to Dr. Crawford." "He's been hanging on long enough." "Don't you understand?" "I don't know which is the formula." "Hello, Dr Crawford." "Look, I'm afraid I'll have to ring you back." "There's been yet another delay." "Yes, yes, yes, as soon as I can." "Brigadier, there was some glass in the lab." "I don't know if..." " Sir." " Glass?" "Sir, there's been some kind of a raid." "Private Upton's dead." " In the caves?" " No, sir, here." "Just down the corridor." "And there's a kind of scorch mark on the wall." " Stay here, Miss Shaw." " What?" " Stay here." " Yes, of course." "Get me Dr. Crawford, please." "How many humans have survived the epidemic?" "They will all survive." " That is impossible." " You have discovered a cure?" "Yes, and soon all the humans will be immune to your epidemic." "Your plan has failed, as your leader wanted it to fail." "Our leader is dead." "I killed him." "I am the leader now." "Thank you, Dr. Crawford." " The Silurians have broken in." " Well, what about the Doctor?" "Well, I imagine they've taken him to their base." "Captain Hawkins, send every man we've got into the caves... and I want all civilian personnel evacuated from here immediately." " Sir." " And organise a thorough search..." " ...of that laboratory." " I'll see to it myself, sir." "You two, come with me." "I've given the formula to Dr Crawford." "They're going to make their own tests... and then go into mass production with the antidote." "Well done, Miss Shaw." "What are you going to do about the Doctor?" " What can I do?" " Try to rescue him." "You'll have to attack their base." "At the moment, they seem to be attacking us." "Since the epidemic has failed, we must use other means." "We intend to make this planet, uninhabitable for humans beings." "But you can't do that." "You can't exterminate a whole species." "Is the disperser ready for activation?" "All we need now is the power." "We shall continue to use the electricity of the humans." "I'm afraid you won't be able to do that." "Thanks to you, the humans are no longer making power." "Their generator has been switched off." " Then you will help us." " We shall force you to reactivate it." "We shall take the centre." "Hello?" "Hello?" "Hello?" "Switchboard." "What's the matter with this thing?" "What the devil..." "We seem to have switched to an emergency lighting system." "Hello?" "It's dead." "This one's dead, too." "And I've just sent the last of my men into those caves." "What do you mean?" "Because of the attack, I sent every man I've got down to the caves... and now the Silurians are cutting our communications." " What about your pocket radio?" " No, useless at this depth." "If they could break in once to get the Doctor," " ...they could break in again." " Exactly." "Only, this time, it'll be in force." "Is the machinery prepared?" "I could do nothing without power from the humans' generator." "It has ceased to function." "We shall force them to reactivate it." "When your instruments register the power, you will revive all our people." "Now I shall take the one called the Doctor to the research centre." "I'll go to the Ministry myself." "We need a division down here and I'll see we get it." "What's the matter with this thing?" " The telephone stopped working." " Now the lift as well." "Brigadier, look." "Doctor!" "Put down that weapon." "Do as he says, Brigadier, or they'll kill us all." " We do not need these humans." " Miss Shaw is a scientist." "If I am to do what you want, I shall need her help." "The other one is a soldier." "He is dangerous, kill him." " Brigadier!" "No!" "Any more killing, I shall refuse to help you." "You'll have to kill me, too." "You will take us to the nuclear generator... or we will kill you all." "Very well." "I'll do as you want." "Stop." "Stop." "I said there was to be no more killing." "Stay where you are." "This centre is now in the hands of the Silurians." "They need the use of the generator." "Now, if you follow carefully the instructions I shall give you, your lives may be spared." "Remove the bodies." " Doctor, what do you think you're doing?" " Trying to save your lives." "Now, keep out of the way and keep quiet." "You will now connect this device to the nuclear generator." "The power source is over here." " What is the purpose of this machine?" " That is no concern of yours." "If I am to help you, I must know." "This is the molecular disperser." "It will convert the energy of the nuclear reactor into microwaves." "For what purpose?" "The microwaves will disperse the molecules of the filter belt... which has enveloped this planet since our time." "But if this process gets out of hand, it will destroy all life on the planet." "We can control the process." "Commence work." "What are they gonna do?" " Destroy the Van Allen belt." " What?" "The Van Allen belt." "It surrounds the planet and filters out some of the sun's radiation." "What happens when it's gone?" "It'll get so hot, we will all die of sunburn on a cloudy day." "What good will that do them?" "They're reptile, cold-blooded." "They'll thrive in heat." "We shall die." "It will mean the end of the human race." "The generator of the humans is producing power." "Commence the revival process." "The power is still too low." "You will now provide power to operate the de-hibernation machinery... and activate the disperser." "Yes, well, we'll need to stoke up the reactor." "Miss Shaw, I'll need your help, please." "You mustn't help him." "The Doctor knows what he's doing." "Trust him." "Miss Shaw, I want you to feed uranium into the reactor, all right?" "When I tell you, lower all the rods in at once." " Doctor..." " Liz, I know what I'm doing." "Please, do as I say." "All technicians to your usual sectors, please." "To your usual sectors, please." " All right, Liz?" " Yes." "Lower in number one rod." "Number one rod, check." "Lower in number two rod." "Number two rod, check." "Sector one, increase your power level." "Lower in number three rod." "Number three rod, check." "Now, you should be getting enough power, now, to get your disperser unit into operation." " Continue to increase the power." " As you wish." "Liz, now." "You have destroyed the disperser." "Yes, I know." "Turn off the reactor." "Remove the uranium from the reactor." "Liz, keep away from those controls, get back." "The reactor is now permanently overloaded." "There's going to be a massive explosion, and a colossal radiation leakage." "The whole area will become deadly." " For how long?" " A quarter of a century, possibly more." "This means nothing to us." "We shall return to our base... and wait in hibernation until the radiation has faded." "Kill these humans." "No, they will all stay here to die from the radiation." "Well done, Doctor." "Well done, Brigadier." "Well, hadn't you better close down the reactor?" "I can't." " You were surely bluffing them?" " Well, I exaggerated a bit, but I had to push the reactor past the critical stage... or they'd never have believed me." "We'd better get out of here at once." " We can't." " Why not?" "They've jammed the lift." "There's no way out." "The re-hibernation mechanism is defective." "One of us must remain." "I am the leader." "The responsibility is mine." "The one who remains here will die." "Is sufficient power stored in the hibernation unit?" "Yes, I have set the controls to revive us in fifty years from now." "When our people revive, you will be the leader." "See that the apes are destroyed." " Any good now?" " No, it's still not working." "Give me time, Liz, give me time." "There you are." "Try that now." "The mega-wattage is still rising." "Yes, I know." "I'll try fusing the control of the neutron flow." "Now, stand well back and cover your eyes." "Well, that seems to have done it." "You are still alive." "You tricked us." "I managed to close down the reactor." "Then, the others must be revived at once." "But first I shall kill you." "Doctor." "Well done, Brigadier." "Now, then." "And just what do you think you're doing down here?" "I'm trying to find out how this hibernation unit works." "I must know if we're gonna revive them again." " Revive them?" " Yes, not all at once, you understand." "One at a time so that we can reason with them." "There's a wealth of scientific knowledge down here, Brigadier, and I can't wait to get started on it." "Yes, well, everything seems to be working quite smoothly." "I don't think there'll be any more trouble." "Splendid." "Now, don't forget, Brigadier, nobody is to go into that Silurian base." "Yes, Doctor." "Miss Shaw and I, will be back as soon as possible... with some testing equipment and probably some other scientists." "Good, good, well, have a good journey." "Yes." "Don't forget, Brigadier, nobody is to go into that base, all right?" "I'll see you tomorrow." " Goodbye." " Goodbye, Miss Shaw." " Corporal Nutting?" " Sir?" " Everything set up?" " Yes, sir." "Give them time to get clear, and then set off those explosive charges." "I want that Silurian base sealed permanently." "Shall I walk back and get some help?" "No, no." "No, it's just a minor technical fault." "We'll soon put that right." "There you are." "That fixed it." "What's that?" "The Brigadier." "He's blown up the Silurian base." "He must have had orders from the Ministry." "And you knew?" "No!" "The government were frightened." "They just couldn't take the risk." "But that's murder." "They were intelligent alien beings." "A whole race of them." "And he's just wiped them out." "I know."
