Somewhere in the South [[Pacific Ocean|Pacific]], either the [[Third Doctor|Third]] or [[Fourth Doctor]] used a Dalek control frequency, which was enslaving the crew of the [[HMS Pandora|HMS ''Pandora'']], to order its captain to launch a Polaris along a 90-degree trajectory. Thus, the missile went up and came right back down along the same path. This caused the Polaris to hit the [[Dalek saucer]] and eliminate the threat it posed. Later, in a conference with Admiral [[Dunsford]], the Doctor feigned ignorance over who might have ordered the ''Pandora'' to fire its missile.
