Summary
The Monstrons land on Skaro inside a dormant volcano and launch an attack on the Daleks, using their Anti-Visibility Thruster. They force the Daleks to seal themselves inside their city against the fog. The Monstrons seal the city with liquid metal so they may invade Skaro. Trapped in the city, the Dalek Emperor is threatened by a giant electric eel, but is rescued. Skaro is saved and the Monstrons destroyed when a single captured Dalek escapes its liquid air prison, destroying the Monstrons' Engibrain soldiers and, after being dumped into the volcano, causes it to erupt, destroying the Monstrons' craft.
Characters
References
Locations
- Skaro has volcanoes, indicating it has a molten core. (Some reference sources claim Skaro has a frozen core and icecanoes)
Objects
- The Daleks use a magnetiser to raise the Emperor Dalek from the watercourse.
Species
- Giant electric eels live in the watercourse below the Daleks' city which leads to the Lake of Mutations.
- What appears to be a two-headed eel might be an Urvacryl (DAN: The Dalek Dictionary) or a Terrorkon.
- A Dalek is able to raise its internal temperature to melt what it thinks is ice; actually it is liquid air.
